Short sales rising
Scanning the Southern California Multiple Listing Service (MLS) last week, the one thing that stands out is the growing number of short sales. Last year, you rarely saw the phrase “short sale” in the MLS property description. Today, approximately 10 percent of the listed properties are short sales. That indicates lenders are getting more eager to unload properties in foreclosure, even if it means selling them for less than is owed on the mortgage. Short sales occur when home prices fall and mortgage debt exceeds the value of the property.

In the Northern Seattle area there currently very few REO properties, and in terms of real short sales, I have seen under 10 that are decent over the past month. It makes a transaction so much less of a nightmare, and in a few years you will have built yourself a great real estate portfolio in one of the best cities Out of those nine contracts, nine have been beat by better offers.
