Sales Trends San Diego CA

Attached is an ex-script about sales trends in San Diego courtesy of the National Association of Realtors and Yahoo. There are plenty of good buys, but how long will it last? This should give some indication. If you have any questions contact your trusted real estate professional. Chances are their guess is as good as any.
For those waiting for a bottom, consider where else in the world is a better place to live than San Diego County. Also, take into consideration that almost all foreclosures, in that hot segment of the market, sell for 98% of list price. In addition, many of the coastal area foreclosures get multiple offers. So it may be time to let that pent up need for a home along the San Diego Coast express itself. There are some fantastic buys to be found in Oceanside, Carlsbad and Encinitas but you have to be ready. Like my karate Sensi used to say “the time to strike is when the opportunity presents itself”.

Real Estate is Like a Great Wave.

The “thing” about a great wave and Real Estate is that you have to work for them both. Unless you are one of the gifted or kissed by the Gods you have to really want to put yourself in the right place at the right time and do the right thing. Then put it all together with style and grace that some call an art form. Real Estate is like a great wave.
