Foreclosures in Pleasanton


Foreclosures in Pleasanton:

After declining steadily since August 2011, NODs (notice of default) saw an upward trend in January, although they were down by over 36% as compared to the same time last year. NOS’s (notice of sale) were higher in both instances. The highest NOS’s were in the million plus price range (12).  
Whilst the total number of properties in the preforeclosure (properties that have had a notice of default filed against them) category fell significantly, bank owned properties and those scheduled for sale fell from the previous month.

General

Declining inventories and a brighter outlook on the employment front, continued low interest rates, increasing demand for rental properties, and the best performing February stock market in over a decade, suggests greater stabilization of the east bay real estate sector. Low inventory in the under- million home market has led to a quick turnover of homes – offering optimism for the spring/summer months.

Ruby Hill Homes Update - February end


Six additional homes were listed in February to make a grand total of 13! Low inventories continue and none of the active listings are short sales or bank owned, which is good news.

Four homes went pending in February - all of them were on the market for less than one month. Homes that are showing well are selling quickly. All but one of these homes were priced under $2 million. Four of the ten homes which are pending are short sales, keeping the pressure on pricing.

Ruby Hill Real Estate - January 2012

The State of the Ruby Hill Market


Reflecting the situation of the Bay Area real estate market generally, the inventory in Ruby Hill remains tight at this point with only 12 homes on the market. Fresh inventory is scant, with the bulk of these homes having been on the market for over 100 days cumulatively, and priced over $2 million. Over half of the pending home sales are currently troubled properties, which keeps the pressure on pricing. All these pending properties went under contract within 60 days of being on the market. Only 2 of the 7 pending properties are priced over $2 million, although one of these has been pending since 2009! The only home that closed in January is a short sale property on Parma Ct.
