Escondido Homes

August 2010 Escondido San Diego Real Estate Market Update

Inventories of Escondido San Diego homes for sale now are on the lower levels. With short sales and bargain priced REO's, qualified buyers are typically facing long escrows. In the previous months, interest rates have dropped significantly but are now going to the right level. But, we can't guarantee that the market will be stable for the next months. The one percent surge in the interest rates can counterbalance a ten percent increase of home values.

Buyers who are qualified must be aware that increase in interest rates could greatly offset any price reductions in the future and increase their monthly cost of ownership. Except the those paying with cash, even though prices decreases, the monthly cost of new homeowners will rise together with the interest.

On the other hand, sellers must understand that demand for Escondido San Diego homes will drop if the interest rates go up. In addition, those who are selling and buying up must keep in mind that a twenty percent drop in a lower priced property is a lot less that a twenty percent decline in a higher priced property.

For borrowers, be sure to obtain a precise description of any loan terms from a lender prior to accepting a loan offer. Also, it is very important to be approved first by the lender for a loan before writing an offer to buy an Escondido San Diego real estate property.

Beyond all of these, buyers have plenty of great opportunities to take advantage in the market. There are lots of motivated sellers willing to negotiate on home prices. Those Escondido San Diego homes for sale located on the desirable areas still stand out in the crowd.
