Short Sales and Existing-Home Sales in Thurston and Pierce Counties

Short Sales and Existing-Home Sales in Thurston and Pierce Counties. The National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) just released their existing-home sales numbers, but what does this mean for homeowners and buyers in Thurston and Pierce County? According to NAR, 379,000 homes were sold nationwide in September, and they expect that a total of 4.53 million homes will be sold in 2010. This is down 19% from 2009 numbers when buyers were looking to take advantage of the tax credit that initially ended in November. Short sales have become an increasing portion of these (and national) home sales. Helping local homeowners avoid foreclosure, I’ve experienced a high degree of success in short sales.
