April 5, 2009: Claremont Home Market Activity

Six Claremont homes were listed for sale during the week ending April 4, 2009, and eight home entered escrow, according to the Inland Multi-Regional Multiple Listing Service.

A total of 101 Claremont homes were listed for sale in the MLS on April 5. Included were 65 single-family homes not in associations. There were 36 condominiums, townhomes and single-family homes in homeowner associations listed for sale in Claremont on April 5; 23 homes were reported as vacant.

The MLS showed four foreclosed, or Real Estate Owned, homes listed in Claremont on April 5; 17 others were in pre-foreclosure - listed as "in foreclosure," Notice of Default or Short Pay/Subject to Lender. Please note: The MLS only recently required the type of sale of listed homes to be reported when a listing is entered into the system; the numbers of homes in foreclosure or having a Notice of Default - both of which likely would have short payoffs - does not include previously listed homes.

One Claremont home was reported as sold in the MLS during the week ending April 4, 2009.
