\"Sandi, Thanks so much for today! I appreciate you \"hangin\' with me\" as I narrow down our needs, tastes and desires and get better at communicating them to you. I am feeling evermore convinced that you are MY realtor and that you are hearing what we want.\"

Hello Sandi and Susan! Thank you so much for a job well done! It sold much faster than I expected and I didn\'t even have to make the trip up to Chico. Elizabeth

What does bill AB 957 mean for a buyer of a foreclosure? The seller can no longer dictate who the closing companies will be. Nice!

Chico CA Real Estate Prices History Comparison 2005-2007

Misery loves company, or so the saying goes. It’s the only explanation for the dismal outlook many folks have when discussing the Chico real estate market. While it’s true that prices have come down from the record highs of 2005 and 2006, it’s safe to say that we fared pretty well compared to many of our California neighbors. If Chico Realtors have said it once, we’ve said it a million times: REAL ESTATE IS LOCAL!

The chart below compares average asking prices and sold prices for single family, residential properties in the urban Chico area.

The data derived from the Chico MLS shows only a 5% drop in home prices from 2006 to 2007. 5%!!

Consider this headline from MSNBC on January 17, 2007:

California home prices drop nearly 15 percent

Report: LA, OC Home Prices Decrease 10 Percent

…Riverside having the biggest drop at 18 percent

San Diego County declines 10.3 Percent

Sacramento area slipped 18 percent year-over-year

I’m happy to say that my real estate investments are in Chico, CA!

Sandi – you’re right. Home prices in Chico have seemed to not drop as low as other places in California. Also I thought the sold price vs list price % was also interesting.

Thanks,

John C
