Shalonda, the short sales have almost dried up as a local title company that offered negotiating services has cut back to just one individual handling the short sales.  They make up less that 3% of our total market.

With 18 out 20 US neighborhoods with highest price appreciation in America being local. We past historical high several years ago and went over 2nd high. It will not reach 3rd plateau for several years.   Too many highly paid jobs. Apartment starts at $3,000 and up ...

Short sale? Have not heard of it for several years now. Not here.

I haven't seen any short sales in quite a while here on Kauai. There are a few, but we don't expect to see many anytime soon.

short sales here are almost non existent, as bankruptcies are becoming more popular as a way out.

I am seeing much fewer short sales and even REOs are dropping to under 3%. Standard slaes are the norm and it is showing market stability.

I Agree with Cindy. We are seeing more standard sales in San Bernardino as well and it is fuelled by investor flips.

Definitely more traditional sales. What were short sales several years ago are now REO sales, it appears to me.

There are still short sales out there, but far fewer than in days gone by.  I'm seeing mostly standard sales at the moment.

The short sale is becoming less and less.  partly because of home prices going up and people are able to get re-fied now instead of losing their homes.

I'm seeing very few short sales closing in my area.  Though, I'm reading that they are making a comeback.  I haven't seen evidence of this locally.

Here in Santa Barbara it is more standard sales.  Every now and then there will be a short sale but they are all but non-existant.

In San Diego, we are seeing more standard sales these days...largely impacted by investors who are flipping the distress sales.

Thank you kindly for your responses and partcipation. I am using the findings on a graph to present to my class to local agents proving that the Residential Real Estate Market is Stabilizing pretty much everywhere within the U.S.. There may be isolated cities that are still climbing out of the downfall. But overall the market has improved. Thank you again.
