49ers Update for June 21, 2009
HAPPY FATHERS’ DAY
HELLO SUMMER!
            Real Estate Activity. One new listing came on the market during the last week, one existing listing dropped off the market, two listings went under contract and one listing reduced its price. Active inventory in the community has fallen to only four listings. With evident buyer interest in the community, owners contemplating selling should consider listing their homes now. Homes that show well and are reasonably priced for the current market are selling. There have been seven closed sales in 2009 thus far and four more homes are currently under contract awaiting closings. Call me at 749-0312 for a market analysis for your home.
-          11760 E 49er Fairway Ln came on the market listed for $695,000.
-          12041 E Fools Gold Cir, a four-bedroom, three-bath home of 2787 sqft built in 1994 and listed for $499,000, dropped off the market. It had been on the market for 212 days and was initially listed for $585,000.
-          2100 N Soldier Trail, a four-bedroom, three-bath home of 2318 sqft built in 1988 and listed for $347,000, went under contract. It has been on the market for 221 days and was initially listed for $495,000.
-          11833 E Custer Pl, a three-bedroom, two-bath home of 2547 sqft built in 1970 and listed for $314,900, went under contract. Listed as a “short sale,” it was initially priced at $325,000 and has been on the market for 48 days.
-          11880 E Wagon Trail Rd reduced its range price by $9,900 to $380,000-$400,000. This home has been on the market for 184 days and was initially listed for $450,000.

Jun. 14, 2009 - 49ers Update for June 14, 2009

 

49ers Update for June 14, 2008
Happy Flag Day! Fly It Proudly
            Real Estate Activity. The 49ers community currently has six homes actively listed for sale in the Tucson Multiple Listing Service (MLS), two homes under contract but not closed and seven closed sales have been reported so far in 2009. There is also a bank REO property on the market on Barbary Coast Road which is not included in the MLS data. Historically, normal inventory (homes for sale) for the community during this time of year has averaged about twice the current number of listings. During the past week, one current listing lowered its asking price.
            - 2100 N Soldier Trail lowered its advertised list price by $28,000 and is now listed at $347,000. This home has been on the market for 216 days and was initially listed at $495,000.
            Supervisor Ray Carroll Comes to 49ers. The Eastside Republicans have invited Ray Carroll to meet with eastside residents at the 49ers Golf Clubhouse on Wednesday, June 17 at 6:30 pm. Here is a chance for residents to meet their county supervisor and hear his views on what is happening in and around our community from the county government perspective.

May. 23, 2009 - 49ers Update for May 23, 2009

 

49ers Update for May 23, 2009
            Real Estate Activity. During the past week in 49ers one home which was under contingent contract returned to the active market at a reduced price and one home which had been on the active market during 2008 returned as an active listing.
            - 11833 E Custer Place returned to the active market at a reduced price of $314,900. It has been on the market for 20 days and was initially priced at $325,000. It is being marketed as a “Short Sale” – one of two homes in 49ers currently listed as short sales (see below for definition).
            - 12110 E Barbary Coast Rd returned to the active market listed for $595,000.
            Mortgage Rates. Following the national trend, local mortgage rates increased slightly last week and now stand at 5% for a conventional, 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage.
            Foreclosure Available. While not listed in the Tucson Multiple Listing Service, 12260 E Barbary Coast Rd, a four-bedroom, three and a quarter-bath home of 3,010 sqft built in 1983, is being offered by the foreclosing lender at a list price of $499,900. If interested in seeing this property, let me know and I will set it up with the bank.
            Can You Sell Your Home Now If Need Be? Yes! Five months into 2009, there have already been six closed sales in the 49ers community, as many as in all of 2008. There are buyers interested in the community with its unique tree-shaded homes, excellent schools and stellar lifestyle. Potential sellers must price their properties reasonably in consonance with the current market and must ensure that their home shows to its best advantage from the get go. Consult an experienced Realtor who is familiar with both the community and the current market. Call me at 520-749-0312 and I will be happy to provide advice and assistance.
            Definition – Short Sale. A short sale is one where the seller owes more on the property than it is currently worth, must price the property accordingly and the seller will be unable to pay the difference. The lender(s) must approve all short sales and sales processing takes longer than normal as a result.

Sep. 27, 2006 - Six Tips for Sellers

Six Tips for Sellers

  1. Curb Appeal Is Essential.  A mowed, trimmed lawn and weeded garden create a good first impression. Inspect the exterior of your property: Shutters, windows, front door and steps. If the house needs painting, buyers will notice and may consider it a major objection to purchase.
  2. Neatness Counts.  Scrub each room thoroughly. Give special attention to the entryway, kitchen and bathrooms. Shampoo the carpet if necessary. If the carpet is worn or old, consider replacing it or removing it completely if hardwood floors are underneath. And don't forget cobwebs in the corners!
  3. Eliminate Clutter.  Buyers will open closets and cupboards, so make sure they're as tidy as possible. Get rid of items you don't use. Remove unnecessary furniture to help make each room appear more spacious.
  4. If It's Broken, Fix It.  Easily fixable items such as loose doorknobs, a broken dishwasher, a dripping faucet, and squeaky doors all detract from your property's value. An afternoon spent making needed repairs now can eliminate a buyer's objections later.
  5. Small Changes Can Make a Big Impression.  New throw pillows enhance bedrooms and living rooms. New towels can freshen a tired kitchen or bath. Fresh flowers add warmth to any room. And even a fresh coat of paint doesn't cost much but can make a huge difference.
  6. Don't Forget About Aromatherapy.  Make sure your home passes the scent test. Right before an open house, bake some cookies or bread, simmer a pot of apple cider and cinnamon on the stove, or light a few scented candles. Strong odors could send potential lookers running out the front door.
