Fullerton, CA

Real estate in Fullerton has a new obstacle to overcome. Times have changed, progress is happening. But can our systems "step up to the plate" with new technology and consider electronic signatures for their legal and solid validity?? Not so sure. We have tried several affiliates and are only batting about 65%. It seems some people just don't get it - they need the "boss" to say it is OK or get a memo changing the in-house rules to allow electronic signatures. We are battling with two firms as we speak. It will happen of course, they will some day get the word, but wow, some people don't like to change. We will fight on - it is worth it.

I love this time of year! Fall in Fullerton is so much fun! Our trees may not turn colors and lose their leaves but so many fun events come up in the fall and this weekend is probably my favorite.....Fullerton Uncorked!

Why do I love it so much? First, it is located at the beautiful Fullerton Arboretum. It is great opportunity to tour these beautiful grounds in the Cal State Fullerton parking lot.

Second - The food! Pretty much every great restaurant in town is there serving up tastes from their menu's! This year over 45 local restaurants will be there, along with numerous wineries and breweries.

And that brings me to three - Wineries and breweries! Your friends (and mine) from the South Fullerton Rotary will be there to pour! And pour they will!

Did I mention that it is a fundraiser and supports two great causes? Proceeds go to support the Fullerton Arboretum and the Fullerton Boys and Girls Club!

This is pretty much the best party in Fullerton and that is just what it feels like, a big party with all your friends! The venue is just the right size and I almost everyone in Fullerton will be there (or so it seems).

Tickets are $55 at the door or $45 in advance and include: All you can eat and drink, and live music, everything included in your price. Purchase in advance at:

The Complete Package- 1400 N. Harbor Blvd., Suite 130 - Fullerton, CA 92835 - (714) 446-0330

The other day I posted a blog and a graph about what is happening with inventory in Fullerton. Fullerton Real Estate - Supply and Demad - The Facts. The fact is; it has decreased. Someone asked a great question in response and it was, "What are the home prices doing in Fullerton?" Great question, here is the answer, in graph form. (Funny, I think I might be becoming a graph person after all.)

Fullerton Home Prices Per Square Foot (All Homes Sold)

I don't have the option to list the actually prices in my software (source is the So. Cal. MLS) but you can see that the per square foot price has started to increase in Fullerton. This is for all price points.

After pulling these stats, I was curious to see what the inventory was like in the super hot price point of below $500,000 in the city of Fullerton.

The numers are shocking!

This graph (source So. Cal. MLS) indicates the inventory in Fullerton for homes less than $500,000. This is what is hot right now and you can see that there is practically no inventory and that the pending escrows almost equal what was was for sale! Wow!

And the price range for these? Here is the per sq. ft. for this price range.

Prices have started inching up. April was really a turning point in the area. People really started looking in the early part of the year and this is when the demand started to increase.

If you would liketo see the numbers for something more specific, let me know. I am kind of getting into these graphs!
