Foreclosure Tours In Olympia and Lacey Washington

Phil Sharp Homes has been conducting tours of foreclosure and short sale properties in the Olympia and Lacey Wa area since mid-March. A recent article in the Olympian Newspaper highlighted the first tour open to the public, and highlighted the situation of "Mr. June". Mr. June is a homeowner facing loss of his home due to his son's medical expences. Mr. June attributes the fact that his home is now under contract...and that he will not be faced with foreclosure, to the tour.

Of the twelve homes featured on the first tour on the 29th of March, six are now pending sale. These homes are not pending because of the tours, rather they are selling because buyers who have been on the fence are seeing real value in the market. The prevalent sentiment among buyers, at least in the local market, is that the worst is over. Lots of inventory is the downside; strong local economy, #8 in Forbes list of the top ten places to invest in real estate, and geographic location are the upside.

The following is a press realease from the Olympian Published on March 8th, 2008. Please use the contact information below if you would like to participate in a future tour.
