2. 2012 by the numbersData is from the WFRMLS. 3. Are you better off than in 2007? Solds close to 2007. Short sales haveincreased. Investors are back. FHA is a big player. Seller financing up but not a big player, samewith Lease Options 4. 2012 compared to 2011 11% = increase if average value 24% = increase in homes sold 20% = increase in total dollar volume 14% = decrease in Days on Market 21% = decrease in dollars/sq foot.. 5. Multiple offers abound More people looking to buy. Values are increasing. It puts people back to work. Harder to get a good deal. Have to pay more thanyou want to 6. Example of how crowded it is $103,950 = Asking price $160,000 = estimatedvalue after remodel $107,000 = Offer price $25k-$30,000 = estimateto fix the home up 25 = Number of bidders $130,000 = Sold price 7. Time out, re-group.. After losing to multiple offers several times. Looked at 7 that had sold. 6 of 7 went for cash. 5 of 7 sold for $10,000+over list price. No seller concessions. $70/sq ft was average. DOM < 17 days 8. Whats it like right now Inventory is still down. Multiple offers persist. Interest rates willbe moving up.
