Buying or Selling Homes -The New Dynamic in the Inland Empire and Riverside County (Indio: real estate)

[Valuator]

• January 09 - Happy New year. Anyone thinking of moving to the Inland Empire and/or the desert resort cities of Southern California - in about six months the prices will start to be ideal for purchasing post foreclosure and even new listings offerings - just work with someone who knows the local area and the values. Yes there are foreclosures now, but wow, wait for another six months.

• Here in the Coachella Valley - Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage, Cathedral City, Palm Desert, La Quinta, Indian Wells, Indio, Coachella - there are already reasonably good buys but they will be super buys in about 6+ months - every Market Cycle - through good and bad economies - have always turned back up and those buying in the last half of 2009 should be able to buy at such a good price, their equity increase over the next four to five years should be fantastic. But - with over 20 years experience - "wadda I Know?"

• I only predicted this current downturn nearly four years ago now, and was told then when I blogged, wrote and spoke about it, to "shut up and keep it to yourself." by some fellow and newer Realtors - who believed the up market was for ever more - and by other professionals who were so eager to get commissions they lost tract of ethics and, in doing so, their clients' well being, putting so many people as possible, into homes they couldn't afford, would soon lose those homes when creative financing fell apart and/or the new home owners would be at the least, struggling at the mercy of a crashing economy.

• As a Certified Residential Appraiser and Broker in California -aside from my regular appraising business, I associate, at any given time, with a limited number of buyers and investors, but thery are assured and can be confident, I never try to sell 'em on any potential residential purchase or investment opportunity, until the market is oh so just right, and can assure them the outcome will be positive and they'll be happy as new larks in the springtime.

• As to appraising - if you are thinking of buying at any value leve in the next 2 years, take the time toget to know and work with an honest local appraiser -if he or she is also a Broker/Realtor as well, you'll have the best of both worlds. It should, at the very least, help you save thousands on a purchase, or if selling - save you months of useless time on the Multiples trying to find a buyer with a house that is not competitively priced. Either way - you save a lot of money for a small appraisal fee. Investors, you would be foolish to enter or continue in the market without a Broker/Appraiser on your side. "But wadda I Know?"
