A Sickening Dip, Then Maybe A Jump – The real estate news in the Bay Area was bad in January, with sales volume down as much as 38% and prices down 5% or more. Interest rates just jumped from 4.81% to 5.05%… Buyers have come out in force in February, and we may soon see more sellers rise to the bait, putting their homes on the market. (Redfin)
To Buy or Not to Buy: Condo Realities Most condos are significantly less expensive to purchase than houses in the same area, so it’s easy to understand their appeal. However, the old adage “caveat emptor” (buyer beware) applies even more to condos than to single family homes. (HomeSpun)
Will My Home Appraise? Most folks don’t think about the hidden hurdle an appraisal can become until well into the buying or selling process. The appraiser may actually have the final say about a home’s value as seen by banks. With this in mind, we interviewed Adam Lehman, Certified Residential Appraiser, Yovino-Young, Valuation Consultants, to learn more about this process. (MarvinGardens)
