Are there more further inland -? YOU BET! Did you know there are homes for sale under $50,000?!! YES! - Possible rentals/fixer-upper/income properties! Maybe even a home for you to look at and maybe own!
Rates are going up!! Each point rates go up (Each 1%) means you loose about 10% of your purchase power. This translates to this: Let's say you - right now can qualify for a $250,000 loan and you have a 3-10% down available. Let's say that the rates go up 1% - this means that a home payment on your $250,000 homes now only can by a home that is $225,000 or less.
Scary thing is this has already happened! Everyone heard everyone saying "I can't get a loan!" Truth is - maybe on 5% of those people actually tried. The other 95% just repeated what they heard - so they never tried,...and they never knew the truth. BUT, if those people actually tried and got pre-qualified back when rates where at 3.5% - they could afford a whole lot more home than today! -
The example would work like this:
3.5% loan on $250,000 - YEAH! great deal - long term savings,..huge savings and tax benefits you could have gotten on your taxes already this year!!
Rates go up to 4.5% -- now you can only afford a $225,000 home because the payment (even on a lower amount) is higher because the interest rate is higher.
Now rates are at close to 5.5% and higher. This means that your purchase power has lost over $50,000! It also means your monthly payment is going to equal what you COULD HAVE BOUGHT AT $250,000 but instead you will pay a much higher monthly for even less of a home.
Arrrgh! I see people suddenly, finally begin to realize that the over all price of the home is important - but the rate at which you pay back your loan is the over all most important issue!! This is why we had such HUGE Real Estate issues! People ended up with monthly payments they could not afford because of interest due and rates attached to the mortgage.
Need more info? you have to ask me! I can's answer your questions unless you talk to me.

Urgent News- C.A.R. Housing - Sales Report
Quick Facts:
· Existing, single-family home sales increased 9 percent in August to a seasonally adjusted rate of 526,970 on an annualized basis.
· The statewide median price of an existing single-family home increased 2.6 percent in August to
$292,960, compared with July 2009.
· C.A.R.’s Unsold Inventory Index fell to 4.3 months in August, compared with 7 months in August 2008.
LOS ANGELES (Sept. 25) – Home sales increased 9 percent in August in California compared with the same period a year ago, while the median price of an existing home declined 16.9 percent, the CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® (C.A.R.) reported today.
“First-time buyers continue to be the driving force in home sales throughout the state,” said C.A.R. President James Liptak. “The federal tax credit, which has helped more than 1.4 million people become first-time homeowners nationally, is set to expire Nov. 30. The tax credit is a proven economic stimulus that clearly is working, and should be extended through 2010 and expanded to include all home buyers,” Liptak said.
Closed escrow sales of existing, single-family detached homes in California totaled 526,970 in August at a seasonally adjusted annualized rate, according to information collected by C.A.R. from more than 90 local REALTOR® associations statewide. Statewide home resale activity increased 9 percent from the revised 483,400 sales pace recorded in August 2008. Sales in August 2009 decreased 5.1 percent compared with the previous month.
The statewide sales figure represents what the total number of homes sold during 2009 would be if sales maintained the August pace throughout the year. It is adjusted to account for seasonal factors that typically influence home sales.
The median price of an existing, single-family detached home in California during August 2009 was $292,960, a 16.9 percent decrease from the revised $352,730 median for August 2008, C.A.R. reported. The August 2009 median price rose 2.6 percent compared with July’s $285,480 median price.
“The statewide median price rose for the sixth consecutive month in August,” said C.A.R. Vice President and Chief Economist Leslie-Appleton-Young. “Recent price gains are consistent with the low inventory levels of the past few months. Levels of distressed properties remain high, but have declined compared with earlier in the year, and are one reason why inventory levels are running below the state’s long-run average of 7.2 months.
“Sales have exceeded 500,000 homes for 12 consecutive months, and now are 38 percent higher on a year-to-date basis compared with 2008,” said Appleton-Young. “Sales continue to be boosted by the large number of distressed properties on the market, along with favorable interest rates.”
Highlights of C.A.R.’s resale housing figures for August 2009:
. C.A.R.’s Unsold Inventory Index for existing, single-family detached homes in August 2009 was 4.3 months, compared with 7 months (revised) for the same period a year ago. The index indicates the number of months needed to deplete the supply of homes on the market at the current sales rate.
. Thirty-year fixed-mortgage interest rates averaged 5.19 percent during August 2009, compared with 6.48 percent in August 2008, according to Freddie Mac. Adjustable-mortgage interest rates averaged 4.72 percent in August 2009, compared with 5.26 percent in August 2008.
. The median number of days it took to sell a single-family home was 35.2 days in August 2009, compared with 47.6 days (revised) for the same period a year ago.
Regional MLS sales and price information are contained in the tables that accompany this press release. Regional sales data are not adjusted to account for seasonal factors that can influence home sales. The MLS median price and sales data for detached homes are generated from a survey of more than 90 associations of REALTORS® throughout the state. MLS median price and sales data for condominiums are based on a survey of more than 60 associations. The median price for both detached homes and condominiums represents closed escrow sales.
In a separate report covering more localized statistics generated by C.A.R. and DataQuick Information Systems, 27 of the 388 cities and communities reporting showed an increase in their respective median home prices from a year ago. DataQuick statistics are based on county records data rather than MLS information. DataQuick Information Systems is a subsidiary of Vancouver-based MacDonald Dettwiler and Associates. (The lists are generated for incorporated cities with a minimum of 30 recorded sales in the month.)
Note: Large changes in local median home prices typically indicate both local home price appreciation, and often, large shifts in the composition of housing market activity. Some of the variations in median home prices for August may be exaggerated due to compositional changes in housing demand.
. Statewide, the 10 cities with the highest median home prices in California during August 2009 were: Saratoga, $1,337,000; Palos Verdes, $1,170,000; Newport Beach, $1,040,000; Los Gatos, $900,000; Cupertino, $870,000; Danville, $825,000; Santa Monica, $810,000; Rancho Palos Verdes, $765,000; Arcadia, $750,000; and Mountain View, $732,500.
. Statewide, the cities with the greatest median home price increases in August 2009 compared with the same period a year ago were: San Juan Capistrano, 28.8 percent; Laguna Hills, 17.6 percent; Placentia, 10.9 percent; San Rafael, 10.1 percent; Fullerton, 7.2 percent; Benicia, 5.6 percent; Arcadia, 5 percent; Alhambra, 3.5 percent; Costa Mesa, 3.1 percent; and Walnut 2.9 percent.
Leading the way...® in California real estate for more than 100 years, the CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® (www.car.org) is one of the largest state trade organizations in the United States, with more than 163,000 members dedicated to the advancement of professionalism in real estate. C.A.R. is headquartered in Los Angeles.

* Santa Barbara County and Monterey County median prices decreased significantly from August 2008 due mainly to the high proportion of total sales from lower-priced properties in the regions.
