Copper Canyon Golf Course

2011 Was an interesting year for home sales in Corte Bella.  There were 83 homes sold, 27 of those were distressed properties (bank owned foreclosures or short sales).  19 Were positioned along  the golf course.  The median price was $250,000.

There are currently 88 homes listed for sale.  This is about 20 less then the same time last year.  The number of distressed properties currently for sale is 11 and there are 6 pending distressed property  sales.  Most of these properties sit along the north perimeter of Corte Bella.

The Maricopa county recorders office reports only 6 additional owners have been issued a notice of foreclosure.  This is good news!  Last year in January there were over 35!

The statistics and facts tell me that  the market is starting to shift.   Very soon, most of our listings and sales will me normal sales.. not distressed.   Because AZ is a deed of trust state, there will not  be a new wave of foreclosures.  That new wave is predicted for the judicial foreclosure states.  The foreclosures happend quickly in AZ because they did not have to go through the court.  There is no shadow inventory!

It’s a great time to purchase a home!  If you wait, the good deals will be gone and you will miss the opportunity to take advantage of the bottom of the market.
