Lake Tulloch Tottsies Ready the Angel Tree!

Bonnie Kappler,  GRI: Real Estate Sales Person in Copperopolis, CA

It is that time of year again. The Lake Tulloch Tootsies are getting ready to put up the Angel Tree at the Umpqua Bank. This year there is even greater need than in the past. Go to the tree and pick a special Angel card. Each card has the needs of a special child in our community. I have been amazed each year when children are asked for what they want for Christmas from Santa they will reply a blanket, pillow, or coat. Many have to be encouraged to ask for a toy! Each card has necessary information of your special Angel such as size, age and needs/wants. Please watch for the tree and sign up if you can, the need is so great and very much appreciated by people in our community.

First time buyer tax credit has been extended

Bonnie Kappler,  GRI: Real Estate Sales Person in Copperopolis, CA

It looks like the first time buyer tax credit may be extended by congress. This is a great home and can give the first time home buyer up to $8000.00 back in tax credits. If you want to take advantage of this tax credit you should close before the end of the year. Most escrows take at least 45 days with the new rules that govern lenders. So!!!!! if you want the credit on this years taxes it is important to move quickly to find the perfect home. Call your realtor today!

Market health

Bonnie Kappler,  GRI: Real Estate Sales Person in Copperopolis, CA

Inventory is declining, but new REO and Short sales are still hitting the market at a steady rate. It seems that short sales are getting more difficult to reach agreement with the banks. REO sales however are much easier. This is a great time for home buyers. It appears that we are seeing an increase in short sales and REO sales in the upper market. If you are in the buyer market it is very important to make a good conection with an agent that can put you on "drip" email. This will provide current listings as they are entered into the local mls. In this market getting there first is important.

Haunted Copperopolis!
