Lane county Oregon home prices continue to rise. Foreclosures still on ice..

With a small foreclosure shadow inventory, and Real Estate brokers unqualified to negotiate short sales stalling them Real Estate values are rising. Oregon banks will start to release the approximately 2600 in current shadow foreclosures next week. Spread evenly across the state by population it is not going to stop the 2013 rise. I expect loan modification failures along with failed short sales to create another shadow inventory that will affect the market sometime in late 2014 to early 2015. I forecast a normal rise and fall in values will take place inside 2017-2029, Remember. 2002-2012 inflated and crashed on an extreme scale due to bad loan underwriting. The profits nor losses will not compare to the recent bubble melt down. All markets adjust! Buy on the down turns & sell on the way up. Nobody can accuratly predict an exact bottom or top. If you found it you already missed it. I call it investing on hill sides. If you are still in the buyers market you missed the bottom by 5%.

Team Thayer Real Estate House Flipping Traps! #flippinghouses #eugeneoregon #oregon #housing #market #realestate

If you’ve got several leads waiting to turn into potential deals, you can’t wait for one to suddenly come knocking at your door. Successful real estate house flippers have one trait in common: they place an emphasis on proper planning. Once you’ve secured a deal, you must decide what kind of rehab you will perform. Will you conduct a few simple cosmetic upgrades (like these  10 rehab projects you finish in one weekend )? Or, is the home nice enough to sell after  an easy prehab ? Are there structural damages that will require you to carry out more major renovations? Will you focus on implementing environmentally friendly renovations  – also known as “greenhabbing” – so that you  qualify for certain tax benefits ? Once you’ve determined your strategy, it is important to ask yourself these specific questions before diving into the construction action: What are the current market conditions in my area? What does my ideal buyer look like? Does my marketing cam...

Are Cheap Houses A Good Deal? Team Thayer Real Estate News Eugene Oregon

Whether you are buying a car, real estate or even just a bottle of wine, people are always looking for the best possible deal. It may go without saying, but people love bargains. It may even be safe to say that people covet the real estate bargain most of all. A property listed below $50,000 may seem too good to be true. However, that is not always the case. Upon closer inspection, the property may need more work than meets the eye. While some properties are well worth their low sticker price, others may require so much work that their  value  isn’t worth the purchase. If you are on the fence as to whether or not an inexpensive property is right for you, here are some pointers to help with the decision: 1. Location:  Location  is one of the first things you need to look at when attempting to determine value. If there is no demand, a cheap property will do you no good. You should never make an opinion about a property without researching the area. Some seemingl...
