Sacramento Real Estate Homes

We all know that distressed or foreclosed homes are considered best buy and widely recognized as great investments by so many investors because of its affordability. But let’s take a look on what is happening right now in the industry most importantly on foreclosed properties. During 2010, distress there are hundreds of thousands properties were sold in the entire region but beginning in the first quarter of 2011, it starts to decline.

Sales of distressed homes in the area continued to drag down Sacramento's housing market, which remained among the weakest in the country, according to a new report.

According to a real estate research firm, distressed home values in the entire region remained higher during the June to September period, making it the 10th-worst-performing area in the country, thus, many investors and even first time home buyers prefer to choose buying distress homes from other county who sell repossessed homes less than half of the amount Sacramento distress homes can offer.

To make it clearer to you, let me give you the complete 2011 3rd quarter report data on the distress home sales in the region. Check them out below;

More than 36 percent of all sales during the four months ending Sept. 30 were real estate-owned properties, or REOS, which kept prices weak during the period. REOs are properties that banks take ownership of after a failed foreclosure auction. The properties sell at a deep discount.

Meanwhile, the worst performing market, Las Vegas saw values decline by 1.7 percent. The REO saturation in the region is nearly 49 percent.

Cleveland was the top performing market with an 18.2 percent increase during the past four months, followed by New Orleans where prices rose 11.2 percent.

Overall performance during 2nd Quarter of 2011 in the region was flat, like what was mentioned above. The following is a summary of the distress sales during the quarter;

Vacancy declined by only 10 basis points, ending the three-month period at 17.6%.

Total leasing activity remained active with almost 1.2 million SF of available space being occupied during the quarter, however, most of that offset by consolidation and closures that eventually yielded only 48,873 square feet of positive net absorption for the quarter.

Though gross absorption during the 2nd quarter remained virtually the same as reported in 1st quarter, the change in net absorption from negative 322,920 square feet to positive 48,873 square feet from the second quarter is hopefully a sign of a slowing trend in consolidations and closures in the entire Sacramento region.

Tenants still hold the upper hand in lease negotiations, as concessions still continue to be a strong tenant bargaining toll to getting leases done.

Still see a continued fight up the Class chain as lease rates continue to favor the tenants.

Office sales continue to get consummated as lease on select assets and mostly at favorable buyer prices.

Lease rates continue to flutter and will continue to favor tenants until stable employment sources are identified in the region and the State government reconciles California’s budget woes.

There remains only 280,000 square feet of new deliverable office space in the market as of June 30, which should provide some much needed relief to the vacancy rate over the next 12 to 24 months, in short, for the next two years.

Other real estate data can also be gathered through the Department of Real Estate (DRE). You may ask them to get a copy of it by going to their offices found in your county. Drop by their offices and ask the duty officer about it and done.
