Take a look at Newport Beach prices right now compared to 2 years ago. I constantly get asked what is the market going to do? I don't know, I wish I had a crystal ball. What I do know is that in Newport Beach, Real Estate is a great investment. I remember back in the late 1990's not being able to buy investment properties and boy did I regret it! I know the same thing will happen again. Take a look at the chart above and you will see an increase recently. Today the median list price in Newport Beach is $1,950,000. That doesn't mean that's what the median price sold will be. With 476 single family homes for sale and the average days on market being 222, the market is trending to be a little slow. This is typical of this time of the year. If you are a seller the depletion of inventory can be good news for you. Many sellers take their properties off the market during the holidays and this just gives you less competition. Usually buyers out looking during the holidays are serious and you could get your home sold at this time. Waiting until January is not always the best decision because everyone else sells then too!

Breaking News: Home Buyer Tax Credit Set to be Extended and Expanded!
Earlier this week, the U.S. Senate passed an extension and expansion of the home buyer tax credit. This morning, the House of Representatives approved the agreement. The bill has now passed both chambers and is awaiting the President's signature, which could be as early as tomorrow!
Below is a guideline of the new modifications in the extension and expansion of the tax credit:
1) The $8,000 tax credit will be extended and available for first-time purchases before May 1, 2010.
2) A new $6,500 tax credit will be available for repeat buyers who purchase between December 1, 2009, and May 1, 2010. To qualify for this provision, buyers must have used the home sold or being sold as a principal residence consecutively for 5 of the previous 8 years.
3) Prospective purchasers with binding contracts in place as of April 30, 2010, will be allowed an additional 60 days to complete the transaction.
4) Income limits are expanded to $125,000 on a single return and $225,000 on a joint return.
If you know anyone looking to buy their first home at a time when prices and interest rates are still down, please let them know of this opportunity!
