Long Beach California Real Estate Sales

Twilight over Naples Island and The Peninsula-Long Beach Real Estate

Long Beach California Real Estate Sales Update

January - April 2008

 

The real estate market in Long Beach has begun to shift.  We have witnessed a steady rise in homes and condos for sale in Long Beach since the beginning of the year, as is witnessed by the chart provided.  Buyers who have been waiting out the real estate market hoping to get that incredible deal are now buying those Long Beach homes and condos they have been wanting. 

 

Interest rates are still great, although lenders are tightening up on lending standards.  It is getting more difficult to procure a home loan unless your income and credit scores are high, your credit history is good and your debt ratio is low.  As we progress into the summer months lending standards will become even more stringent.   

 


Long Beach Home BuyersIf you are one of the consumers who has been sitting on the sidelines waiting for Long Beach real estate prices to drop before you begin your buying process, you might want to speak to a mortgage lender pretty soon.  Run your credit, find out if you qualify for a home loan sufficient to make that purchase.  You may also decide to go ahead and buy now while Long Beach prices are low, some concessions are still being granted and home loans are still available to consumers with less than pristine credit.

Long Beach Mortgage Rates Report: May 2, 2008

Leave a comment »

Lets lock all mortgage rates at application, regardless of when its closing.  I think this is about as good as it gets for a while.  I still see 30 year fixed rates a tad under 6% (5.875%) but the good economic data, released today, could drive Long Beach mortgage rates up next week.

Long Beach Mortgage Rates Report: April 29, 2008

1 comment »

No real change in my posture.  I still believe that Long Beach mortgage rates have room to go lower in the next 30-90 days but Im advising clients who are closing in less than 17 days to lock. All others can float.
