The first month of the new year is coming to a quick close! For many, a new home for 2010 is a goal that is in mind. Many of the calls we received were from potential home owners looking for that real estate “deal of a lifetime”; the majority of our home owner hopefuls called in about Foreclosure homes or Short sales in their area of interest.
Those homes can indeed be a great find. But, why limit yourself? There are so many Altadena homes for sale now that could be purchased for pretty good prices. And… when you are not dealing with banks, but are negotiating directly with home sellers, you can ask for concessions like having the home seller buy down your interest rate to make your monthly payment lower.
A great place to start would be with homes, condominiums and townhouses that have been on the market for several months. Most home sellers at this point have either adjusted their home price or are open to negotiation.
The houses below have been on the market for over 100 days (over 3 months!). There could be some pretty good deals hiding in there and incentives! With the first time home buyer tax credit still available through April of 2010, why not make your new home dreams a reality! We call them Dusty Deals™!
