580homesales trumps other search sites when it comes to searching for Livermore Ca homes for sale by Steve Eveleth

When it comes to finding the right home to purchase in Livermore there are no shortage of sites to search on. Sites like zillow, trulia, realtor.com, Redfin, and various others all draw buyers in as they are well known, easy to find and established. However on the flip side they are often misleading, outdated and inaccurate when it comes to the most recent relevant and accurate status of a home that's pending, available or sold. The other issue with these sites is they are not regulated. It's like the wild Wild West for house shopping. While these sites are good some boiler plate generic information when it comes to you being serious, pre-approved and ready to purchase a home there is much more value to your time other than "window shopping" , your ready to get down to brass tacks!  When you’re serious about a Livermore California home purchase or sale, try 580homesales.com I designed this site especially for buyers Livermore home search, direct connect to mls & updated on the hour.

First time buyers jumping at opportunity in Livermore California by Steve Eveleth 925-487-2246

When it comes to making a home purchase in Livermore California, most first time buyers thinking mentality is "let’s just get in" meaning there are often compromises made by Livermore home buyers on their first home purchase. Things like paint, carpets, landscaping are often overlooked while things like schools, layout, neighborhood, # of bedrooms and baths , roof, windows and energy efficiency are on the more "important list" when it comes to a home buyer making a decision to purchase a home in Livermore California. The housing inventory is remaining tight in Livermore as of today 3/27/2014 and is expected to hold steady ground as long as rates remain stable.

When choosing a Real Estate professional to work with one of the key factors to evaluate these days is the agent’s online reviews. 90% of buyers and sellers go online when starting their home search BEFORE they contact an agent.

Livermore inventory poised to stay strong for now, no signs of a slowdown. By Steve Eveleth

 Today there are 72 homes on the market for sale in Livermore Ca. The lowest price is about $220k for a starter condo up to the high end luxury estate of several million. In the past 60 days there has been 142 pendings and solds in Livermore , that’s about 2.3 homes per day selling. If inventory all of a sudden come to a stop, meaning no homes were to come on the market, we are at about a 1 month supply of Livermore housing inventory. This is not pretty thin! With Livermore offering so much in the way of opportunity for homebuyers it’s not hard to understand what all the hype is about! It makes perfect sense as to why inventory is tight and desirable factors trump any kind of “on the fence” market spectators when it comes to making a decision to purchase a home in Livermore California. With low interest rates, an improved economy and so many wanted amenities by most, Livermore does a perfect dance whenever you hear “best bank for your buck” and “location location location”.

Livermore California homes for sale Real Estate market update by Steve Eveleth

With spring just around the corner many buyers are poised to make a move toward homeownership, and historically spring is the time where more inventory is available and qualified buyers get into action. This is also a time when sellers make their moves as well. Many are questioning this time in the market wondering is it simply that time of year or have we overshot a high in the past 2 years and is increased market inventory the start of a cool down or more balanced market between buyers and sellers.  upgrading, downsizing, relocating, buying a investment property or occasionally I come across buyers who have gained substantial equity in the past couple years who have decided to simply “cash out” and rent for a while if they have the flexibility and investor mentality of buy low sell high. Many different moves and motivations are being played right now with buyers and sellers. Investors continue to move aggressively on the “deals with a margin” however since the major drawback in short sales and REO’s there is much less opportunity for investors which means when a decent deal with a margin hits the open market its literally a “investor feeding frenzy”. Many of the investors that worked off the court house steps, worked with the banks, simply now work off the open market and are often times beat out themselves by first time buyers or buyers that plan to live in the home and fix up gradually are simply willing to pay more and since it’s a private seller in most cases they are willing to work with many different options, more or less whatever brings them the higher net proceeds is the trumping offer in the mix. It will be an interesting year for the Livermore California housing market. Please contact me if you would like to have a conversation about making a move with your situation today!

Entry level price in Livermore for a single family detached is breaking ground to the mid $500’s. Livermore California has much to offer home buyers and is said to be “the best bang for your buck” in the Bay Area.

Livermore California home appraisal comes in lower than the purchase price. By Steve Eveleth 925.487.2246

darn it,! Just when everything is going perfect with all my deals, half dome appraisal comes in totally unrealistically low, like way low, bad appraisal. I'm sure we'll get it up but these are the issues a seller can have in an accelerating market where fair market value really is what a ready willing and able buyer is willing to pay not an "opinion" from someone that may or may not know the local market nor even be from the area. Tough thing about a way off appraisal is more chance of the deal falling out. In most cases the seller (in this case an investor) isn't willing to come way down and  a buyer usually isn't willing to come out of pocket way up. So one of 5 things will happen 1) contest the appraisal and help appraiser "figure it out" 2) seller comes down 3) buyer pays out of pocket  4) both buyer and seller meet somewhere in the middle or 5) no deal. Crap not fun times in the middle of a perfectly smooth transaction, time for me to go to work and get this straightened out for a continued smooth close for the seller! http://www.580homesales.com/  Steve Eveleth Livermore Ca Real Estate sales, selling Livermore California homes.

whats the pulse on Livermore California inventory? By Steve Eveleth 925.487.2246

The Livermore California housing inventory seems to be following a consistent seasonal trend with an uptick in inventory. Today we are at 78 total homes on the market in Livermore California, that’s about 10 to 15 more from an average of 60 or so for the past 12 to 15 months. Last year at this time we did not see any drasitic uptick as buyers rushed in from off the fence so to speak quick not to miss the opportunity to be  a Livermore homeowner while they have the chance!  Livermore seems to be of high interest to many with the word on the street being “best bang for your buck”.  Livermore is considered by many to be a “down to earth” town with a nice mix of humble affluence and trendy young chill attitudes is what you’ll find on the streets of downtown Livermore.  Steve Eveleth 925.487.2246.
