Fremont CA Real Estate-Short Sales Fremont CA Real Estate prices fell on average of 35% since the beginning 2007, but there were a few pockets of Fremont that fared a bit better than the rest. What could have been the cause? Weren't they all affected in the same way? Mission San Jose area real estate prices in Fremont for example, did fall but not as much as homes in the Ponderosa area in the north of Fremont.
Schools were the common denominator in determining the home value percentage drop. Had Mission San Jose Schools been anything but one of the top 5% national high schools in the nation, the story would have been different. Parkmont area of Fremont did okay at around 30% drop, better than a 35% drop from other pockets of Fremont. All together, it seems that the Mission San Jose School status provided heavy reinforcements when the real estate crunch came crunching down.

Also, you can compare between Fremont and Sunnyvale here on a study I did last year. Interesting.
I wanted to simply spread a bit of light (just a little) on the differences between a broker and a licensee. What it mostly boils down to is that brokers arethe agents. Most real estate sales "agents" that we normally refer to as agents are in fact licensees working under a broker's license or have an affiliation under the broker, and they are in fact supposed to be called sales associates or real estate licensees, but we usually just say, "agents."
Not all brokers sell real estate themselves. They govern the transactions, amongst many other things. However, some brokers do sell property.
But what about these brokers that sell property? What gives them an advantage over a licensee if any? If I had to choose between a broker that sells property and a licensee as an "agent,"--being a broker myself, I would have to side with the broker. Why? Because the broker (should) always have an astute exposure to both compliance and ethics; a bit more so than the average licensee. Brokers can be a cautious bunch, but they are cautious for the principal's sake. That principal would be you if you were selling or buying a house.
The point being is that at the end of the day, the broker ends up being the responsible "agent" anyway no matter who you chose.
If you need to sell or buy real estate in Fremont CA, find a good broker that sells. We're out there. You will appreciate the added dimension of compliance and ethics exposure. Yours truly, the broker for TriCity Real Estate Brokers, Inc. in Fremont CA sells property.
