  Driving Safely in Eastvale - Speed Enforcement Update        With school back in session I am driving a lot slower these days. I will not even go over 10 M.P.H. when little ones are dodging about on the side walks next to our busy streets.  Many residents of Eastvale have even voiced their concern about the number of accidents and the speed of traffic near the Rosa Parks Elementary down to Roosevelt High School. This concern has prompted the Eastvale police to begin strict traffic enforcement in this area.               Today, 51 traffic citations were issued from 7:00 AM to 8:30 AM and one car was impounded due to a driver who was driving with a suspended license. This operation is one of many that will be conducted throughout the year with the purpose to slow down the traffic for th...

Eastvale CA Homes Sold for the week of July 27th 2014   22 Homes were SOLD this week in Eastvale CA   Data pulled from CRMLS on 8/6/14   22 transactions closed during the week of July 27th to August 4th 2014.   The average sold price was $471k for a typical 4 bedroom, 3 bath house of about 2700sqft of living space. I was surprised this week that days on the market for home sold was about 87 days. This is longer that usual.     I believe it took longer to sell homes primarily because they weren't priced correctly.  I have seen several reductions in asking price this last week. Sellers are beginning to realize that Eastvale rise in home prices have slowed down due to its increase of inventory.    Homes that are move in ready, with great curb appeal, great location, with lots of amenities ...

Eastvale Home Improvement Construction Plan Review Process         Every home improvement plan goes through a process of planning, reviewing and implementing. Home improvements done in the city of Eastvale should be reviewed by the Building Safety and Inspection Department (click here) so that they are done safely and within local code.      One popular improvement is to add a patio cover in the backyard. I have seen these take on a life of their own as entire kitchens take shape for that out door cooking adventure. Adding an outdoor kitchen does not need to cost that much especially if you build it yourself. For example, Lowes has patio covers you can put together, but you still need to get the permits....    Courtesey Geff Purcell        Premier Grilling also has a web site for traini...

Home prices are expected to rise in Eastvale CA     For the state of California, they are predicting a price increase of 5% to 7.5%. That is great news for he housing recovery. However, if one is looking to purchase a property in the near future, it is wise to do it soon rather than later. This is also true with  homeowners who are looking to move up or downsize. Even if there is not  a significant increase in interest rates, just the fact that home prices are expected to rise, one would wiser to buy a property NOW. If you are a homeowner in Eastvale looking to move up, there is no better time to list than now and move on toward your next purchase before price continues to sky rocket. Eastvale's inventory is still limited. If you price your home correctly, there should be plenty of dema...

Eastvale Ca - REO Homes for Sale   Data pulled July 23, 2014 from CRMLS     REO (Real Estate Owned), or bank owned properties can still be found in the City of Eastvale. The number of REO properties has dwindled to almost null. Currently there only 7 REO properties available for buyers to choose from.  Two of these properties are scheduled for auction.   The average days on the market for REO properties in Eastvale is about 81 days, which is longer than what it takes to sell a standard sale. A major factor why REO houses are staying longer on multiple listing service in Eastvale could be due to the fact that most of REO homes are not move in ready and they were not priced correctly. However, with the rise in market value for Eastvale homes, most of the listing that have been on the mark...

Eastvale CA - Homes Sold for the Week of July 12, 2014     For the week of July 12th to July 19th, 16 homes were SOLD in the City of Eastvale. The average sold price was $477k for a square footage of about 2600. That is about $183per sqft. A total of 9 homes were Sold from the price range of $400k to $500k.   The trend that I am seeing is that homes in the price range between $400k to $500k are selling very quickly. This could be due to affordability factor of buyers and it could also be due to desirability toward smaller homes. The ratio of sold price/asking price is at 99%. So if you are a buyer in Eastvale Ca and are considering putting an offer, make sure that you offer is close to the asking price in order to win your bid with the sellers. Days on the market is  averaging about 46 ...
