SALES IN SCSH - SEPTEMBER 2010

Since the beginning of the year there have been 107 homes sold and another 20 contingent or pending sales here in Sun City Shadow Hills. From the total of 127 - 75 were re-sales, 24 were new homes and 25 were foreclosures and short sales. (The new homes recorded here are only the ones that Pulte had submitted to the MLS, not their pre-sold homes) The medium sale price was $312,800.17.

Of those 75 re-sale homes 10 sold for $400,000 to $500,000; 4 sold for $500,000 to $600,000; and 3 sold for over $600,000.

The highest priced home sold for $690,000 in March. This highly upgraded LA PAZ home had panoramic mountain & fairway views as well as offering an amazing backyard entertaining environment that featured a large spool with a tanning shelf and three waterfalls, a custom lava rock firepit, a built-in wrap-around BBQ island, an artificial lawn, plus decorative wrought iron fencing. For a bit of old world charm, beautiful pavers were installed in the courtyard, driveway and rear patio. The garage included storage cabinets, epoxy floors and housed the water filtration and soft water systems. The interior had many custom finishes and designer touches from the lighting to the wall treatments including crown molding throughout. A truly remarkable home!

As the weather cools a bit the phones are beginning to ring a little more and we all are looking forward to a good finish of 2010 and a great start to 2011! Buyers are starting to buzz so if you are thinking of selling your home lets get started now before the masses put their homes on the market. The sooner you act the less competition you will have.

Whats this thing called "Uncertainty?"

Uncertainty...defined as "not sure". Today many of us find it difficult to plan for the future. Whether to invest in the stock market, to sell or purchase a home, to buy a new or used car. These are all decisions that Americans are unsure about as to what to do in these trying times.
I guess the doubt comes from political leadership at the local level all the way up to the Congress and the White House. It doesn't matter whether you are a Democrat, Republican or an Independent because uncertainty effects all of us.
Do you remember when you were a small child and mom or dad would come into your room, kiss you goodnight and tuck you into bed? Well, I certainly felt certain that I was safe, that I was loved and that mom and dad would be there for me if anything scarey might happen.
Wouldn't it be nice if that feeling of "I know what to do" would return?
It might make us feel that we could go and do what we really want to do whether to go to the airport without having to worry about scanners irradiating you or not have to be concerned about some crazies flying a hijacked airplane into one of our skyscrappers.
Just my thoughts on the eve of 9/11.
