Auburn WA Real Estate | February Homes Sold 2012

Auburn WA Real Estate | February Homes Sold 2012

During the month of February Auburn had 73 homes sell.    This includes detached homes, town-homes and manufactured homes on owned land. How exciting to be in a new home for all of the family gatherings!

These Auburn WA homes actually had a transfer of home ownership. Contracts complete and Lender funds available. The home buyer and seller signed all of their documents and escrow prepared the closing packages. Once all the I’s were dotted and the T’s crossed there where deeds recorded at the King County courthouse that transferred the property into the new home owner’s name!

If you want to learn more about how we transfer property in Washington State a really great site to visit is the Escrow Association of Washington site. There you can find definitions and explanations of the home buying process for Auburn Washington.

Let’s look at those 73 Auburn homes sold -

Not a bad time to purchase a home in Auburn, Washington. Prices are down, interest rates are at an all time low you might want to look at what it means to you.

 

What do these numbers mean? Is it a good time to buy? Is it a good time to sell. It all depends on your individual situation. I would rather buy in a buyers market and I would rather sell in a buyers market if I have to buy another home with the proceeds. I am a fan of the NORMAL market – everyone can feel more comfortable and real estate transactions are not as stressful.

If you would like to find out the value of your home please feel free to contact me via phone or email. I would be more than happy to supply you with a FREE Market Analysis.

If you would like to purchase a home in the King County Real Estate Area please give me a call or contact me via email. We can discuss your future plans and I can set you up on an email campaign to receive the hot new listings quicker than YOU can find them.

Auburn WA Real Estate Looking Back at the Years 2006-2011

Auburn WA Real Estate Looking Back at the Years 2006-2011

Auburn WA Real Estate

In a couple of weeks the year will be over.  What will the final stats for the Auburn real estate market show?  One fact we know now is that more homes have sold in Auburn in 2011 than sold in 2010, 2009 and 2008.  However, home prices have continued to drop.  Until short-sale homes and bank owned homes become the exception instead of the rule prices will probably continue to drop.  As of today there was a 13.891 decrease in average sold price compared to 2010.  This could be the fourth straight year with declining prices.  What I find alarming is that we are at this moment in a double-digit decrease once again.

Last month (November 2011) there were 55 homes that sold, of these 55 homes 25 were short sales and 11 were bank owned properties.  All good for buyers, but is still hurting the home owner that is current on their mortgage but upside down in their equity.

Look at the chart below to compare the home sold in Auburn for the years 2006 – 2011 (as of today)

 

Auburn Homes Sold 2006-2011
