Wheeeeeee, what a roller coaster ride we've had in the Arizona real estate market!  We are now at 50% negative equity - tied with Florida, topped only by Nevada at 70%.  Have we hit the bottom?  It appears that we are at the bumpy roller coaster bottom, will the prices dip down even more?  Is there a huge shadow inventory of homes going into foreclosure?  Seriously folks.....look at it....if it dips a little more or prices fluctuate a few $$ you can buy a home for sometimes half of what it would take to build the same home - let's not be too greedy.  The only way to see if you have hit the very bottom is wait for a couple years and look back and see.....course ITS TOO LATE THEN!  If you've always wanted to have a home in Arizona or if you would like to take advantage of our current low ...

  Market Snapshot: Apache Junction AZ - June 2010 The overall market continues to deteriorate in the Metro Phoenix area. A positive note is that banks are issuing fewer new foreclosure notices. Congress has recently extended the $8,000 tax credit close deadline for 90 days. We will need to wait to see the full results of the ripple effect this program will have in the greater Phoenix market over the next few months. Active and Pending ListingsActive Listings were 298 DOWN 4% from 309 the prior month and FLAT from 296 the end of the prior quarter.  Pending Listings were 93 at the end of June, DOWN 3% from 97 at the prior month end and DOWN from 127 at quarter end. Sales Per MonthSales in the month of June were 82, DOWN 7% from the prior month of 89, and FLAT from the end of the prior qu...

In Arizona its the time of year where the weather is ever so pleasant to sit out in the evening. If sitting out, sipping specialty coffee drinks or fruit smoothies with family and friends appeals to you, then you may want to check out the event this Friday evening - April 16 - that will take place at the Starbucks in Apache Junction Arizona. Location is 2580 W Apache Trail in Apache Junction. Jann and the Moondogs play from 7:00-9:00 p.m. This location is right across from a Walmart so it would be easy to get ones weekend shopping done and then go across the street to enjoy the event and relax a bit. To learn more about Jann and the Moondogs, a rock-a-billy, country band visit their website.

To short sale a house in Apache Junction AZ, requires both traditional market knowledge in proper pricing & marketing & specialzed short sale training.  Newest from O'Bama, some troubled homeowners may be able to get loan modifications with principal reduction!  Just out 3/26/10.  Details should be comming very soon.  Scam artists are reported to be abundant with what they call easy "rescue plans".  Many ask for upfront money, don't do it.  You should not have to pay upfront money for the help you need.  There are even lawyers out there who will do a short initial consultation for free, or a very low cost. The biggest wave of faulty loans is about to hit us in the next few months, which many think will bring many more foreclosures.  If you have lost income, had your payment raised, or a...

It's no wonder that NAR says that, "90% of all buyers used the internet to search." We have seen this first hand, and especially over the last few months. When people relocate to other states, it's a long distance move. These people usually start by researching the city on the Internet. More times than not, they find one of our 1,100+ relocation websites. If they're serious, they'll request help in a possible home purchase. Due to a very large demand, we need a Buyer's Agent in Apache Junction that is able to assist these prospective home buyers. These families and individuals are wanting assistance from a Realtor, and if you would like to get in contact with them, we need to talk soon. Time is of the essence, and we only need 1 Realtor to be able to contact these people. We NEVER send ...
