wow…i found this really great article written by the los angeles times about why california housing has seemed to stabalized versus florida’s housing…in california, to foreclose, the lender “simply” has to file a notice of default and essentially then auction it off at the courthouse steps…in florida (and many other states), it has to go thru the court system and a judge has to sign off on it…so here in california, we have been able to get these foreclosures thru the (terrible) process and resold where in florida they’re hung up in the courts – which is where they had all those problems with “robo signers”…california real estate is stabalizing and we are able to go forward in a more positive direction…2011 should be much better!! here’s the article, should you wish to read it…a tale of two housing busts..

i wrote recently about if it’s good time to buy or not…as i stated, i always tell friends and clients it depends on what is going on in your financial house…here’s some good news across the board for everyone…case shiller just came out with the fact that nationwide, home prices rose 1.7% and better news here in the bay area, san francisco rose 7.8%, the highest percentage reporting in of the 20 metro areas…this is good news for buyers since it paints a clearer picture that we have started to see stabalization in the market place; good news for the sellers, for obvious reasons; and overall good news for the economy…we can’t get out of this economic mess without stabalizing the housing market and getting the unemployment numbers down…i think we’re on our way! this is great since i have a house for sale in berkeley!! here’s the article from standard and poor…case-shiller report
