Staggering Numbers

If you follow my blog you will find I post these statistics often. These numbers show you how the Sandicor MLS, Multiple Listing Service of homes on the San Diego Multiple Listing service for one week. Our inventory has dropped to an amazing low which would explain why last week when I wrote an offer for my clients we were 1 of 42 offers. If your thinking of listing your home now would be the time especially if you own your home. Many buyers are trying to steer clear of short sales due to there response to buyer offers. Bank owned or foreclosure homes are quicker to receive a response but the competition is staggering as my above example. Please feel free to contact me to assist you with any questions you may have in regards to buying or selling in this market.
