The basic news is that median prices are stabilizing and sales volumes are up in some areas. Guess what, Pasadena is one of those areas. I have been seeing signs of a bottom and this is just one more confirmation. Especially at the lower end, buyers coming out again: I am currently working with 5 buyers in this category.
Interest rates are still low and there are some good properties available. The loans are out there, this is a strong opportunity to get some investment property or perhaps your first home at prices that are as low as you will see in the next 10 years. I will continue to keep you up to date, I would be happy to serve your needs or those of your friends, family and neighbors.
