Foreclosures in West Plano
2008-06-05 23:43:00 More Foreclosures... It's Thursday (I'm sure you know that) and tomorrow is a busy real estate day so I'm posting for Friday now... And that means Foreclosures. List this week is for 75093 and 75024. Heads up for this week - I know Kings Ridge is a popular place and a hot bed of foreclosures, even in the new section! There are some great opportunities here but don't trust the for sale price as a foreclosure deal. Know the value of the condition and location of the home. Why are they not priced like a real foreclosure? Because banks don't know how to sell real estate! Some are way over-priced...just so you know. Buyer beware...

Real Estate Update and Plano Numbers
2008-05-08 19:01:00 April Real Estate Stats for Plano Big numbers for April came out today from NTREIS (North Texas Real Estate Information System) that's the official name for the MLS. The big picture is Dallas sales were down 11% from last year, dollar volume down 12% and pending sales down 26%. Not so tragic, compared to past 4 month but the pending sales are the future sales that are in escrow to close, so you can figure that May is going to be off too. Let's look at Plano - much better shape...Area 20 is Plano. What's important to look at: Dollar Volume up 3% over last year, Average Price up 18% and Median Price up 12%. Even though sales were down 12% - the value of real estate has increased in the eyes of the buyer! This supports the theory as real estate has increased south of LBJ for the last 4 years, appreciation will continue North as your dollar will buy more house in Plano, plus Plano ISD is a major attraction. This is happening in a down market! Pending sales are...

How's the Market in Plano?
2008-05-07 15:13:00 Inventory, New Listings and Days on Market Stats come out on the the 8th of each month for the previous month. That's tomorrow - but let's look at these charts today to get a bearing on what's happened in the last year. So here's some Altos charts regarding the market in Plano for single family homes and all zip codes from an historical point of view. You can see from this chart when the market started changing - last Sept. but you have to take into consideration that's typically when the market slows down too. Inventory is around 400 units off from last June, that's substantial. Even when the selection of homes is lower it does make pristine homes more valuable, even in a buyers market. New listings are down more than 50% - so if your targeting a certain neighborhood your choices could be limited. This is good for every seller, less competition... It's going to take about a month longer to sell your home from last year. In this market ...

Still open land, this is at Corporate and the tollway on JCPenney property. Beautiful horses and their foals, about 25 horses and 10 babies, I think we kind of take this for granted. In the distance is the Dallas North Tollway and Shops of Legacy - a stones throw away. Just so you know there are lots of SUV's and pick up trucks too but most the cowboys are in Ft. Worth.

Plano ISD Bond Election and What it Will Cost You
2008-04-29 16:53:00 How Much Will Plano ISD Bond Program Cost? Texas has some of the highest property taxes in the nation mainly because we have no state or city income tax. So big brother collects it in property taxes, you pay either way.... Last year the Texas Legislature lowered our property taxes considerably. In Plano rates went for 2.25% to 2.06%, that's a nice chuck of change for everyone. Most of you know that a large portion of your taxes go toward schools. If you read between the lines last year, when taxes were lowered all school districts were going to hold bond elections to make up for the difference. Plano ISD Bond Package So without fail came the Plano Proud bulletin to ask district voters to consider a $490 million bond proposal on May 10th. See the complete package here. How it Affects Plano Real Estate Taxes Will it raise my property taxes? How Much? Yes, it will raise your property taxes, according to the brochure no more than eight cents over the life of the bonds. Sou...

1st Quarter Real Estate Results for Plano
2008-04-22 22:50:00 More Plano Data Needless to say we get a lot of blast emails on real estate marketing and truth be known I don't open that many, sound familiar? Anyway, a couple days ago I received a great report on 1st quarter results for all of North Texas from Shannon at Chicago Title. Thanks, Shannon. Despite the double digit sale decreases all over the metro area, Plano stands out as one of the communities that is doing better than the rest. Take a look. Sales are down 11% and average sales price down just $4K, Days on market is reasonable (under 100 days) for $300K and under and that's what is selling in Plano. Not unusual to only see good properties on the market less than 7 days. Congrats to those sellers! As you can see the inventory is lower or not that much greater than last year except for over $750K. With the inventories tighter seller's will see properties move quicker in prime locations. I'm posting a lot of data lately because that's what our clien...

A couple things about foreclosures in this market... watch for games being played, some homes are being drastically reduced in order to bid up the price with multiple offers. So know your pricing in a neighborhood. Also, with the blood bath this week, maybe lenders will decide they really need to sell homes instead of holding on to them to get the best price. Time for the real investors to come out and make your money going in. [where: 75025]
