Murrieta / Temecula / Lake Elsinore Home Sales - 2007 Recap

It's time for a look back at the numbers that made our market last year to see where we've been and where we're headed. Right now with the number of Lender Owned Homes on the market and the continuing foreclosure activity in the Valley, it's difficult (but not impossible) for individual home sellers to compete profitably against the deep pockets of the banks.

However, as you can see the slowing trend in home sales in the region, we are entering one of the best Buyers markets we've seen in 20+ years. A qualified Buyer is KING right now and with prices back to 2004 levels and an inventory of homes ready for occupancy, it's hard to imagine a better time. Pool homes, big single stories, view homes, homes on acreage, granite counters, South facing homes on a cul-de-sac with an even numbered address and a street name beginning with a vowel - you name it, it's available to look at - and probably a few models of each so you really have a choice.

If you'd like to take advantage of this market to move up yourself or simply pick up some investment property to hold until the market comes back, call me today for ideas on how to make this happen without losing your shirt.

This is that time you swore you'd take advantage of if you only had the chance again. Remember?

Buyers can get a great buy around here too. 

Looks like you're almost back to 2003 levels.  Just where you need to be fore buyers to qualify.  We're in the same boat.

WOW Gene your area really has gone into a tailspin.  My area never had that big run up in prices to have a tailspin I suppose.

John - our market appreciated 155% from 2001 to 2006. We're off about 40% pricewise now but anybody that bought pre-2003 still has made a nice chunk - assuming they didn't ATM every nickel out which many of them did. We did this same cycle back in 1992-1996  but memory is short.

God, give me just one more shot at a good market - I promise I won't screw it up this time.
