2014 has been a disappointing year for homes sales thus far.  The reasons that seem obvious to us include a slower than expect economic recovery, lack of quality jobs, stagnant wages and the enormous rise in prices over the past two years.  Take a look at the sale in Santa Clarita, Valencia, Stevenson Ranch, Saugus, Castaic, Newhall and Canyon Country comparing the time period between January first 2014 until August tenth 2014 as compared to the same time period in 2013                                   Active     Pending     Sold 2014        Sold Same Period 2013Santa Clarita          725          570              1,823                               2,150Valencia                  225          167                 542                                  642Stevenson Ranch    39             ...

When I first moved to Santa Clarita, I was told I lived in Saugus, but then someone told me I actually lived in Santa Clarita, but I could use either name on my mail.  Huh?  Then I heard other names:  Valencia, Newhall, Canyon Country, Castaic, Stevenson Ranch. Are these little cities next to Santa Clarita? I knew for sure that California Institute of the Arts was in Santa Clarita.  Then I saw the sign off Interstate 5 near the campus which says “Welcome to Valencia.” What?!  I thought it was Santa Clarita!  On the other side of town, the sign says “Welcome to Santa Clarita,” but the nearby library is named Newhall Library.  What’s going on?  Why so many names? Well, I finally figured it all out.  Here's the scoop:  Santa Clarita was incorporated in 1987 and combined the communities of ...

The Santa Clarita Valley encompasses six areas which include the City of Santa Clarita and surrounding unincorporated areas.  These six areas are called Valencia, Stevenson Ranch, Castaic, Saugus, Canyon Country and Newhall.There are currently 679 active listings in all of the Santa Clarita Valley.  Home prices have risen dramatically in the past two years.  The rising prices have allow many home owners to finally gain equity and thus be able to sell at a profit and move to another home or community.There were 1502 homes sold in the entire Santa Clarita Valley from May 1 to September 30, 2013.  The inventory of homes was extremely low and a large percentage of homes were garnering multiple offer.  The lack of inventory limited sales to only 300 per month.There has been low demand for ho...

Controversial FHA payoff rule to end   Kenneth R. Harney       WASHINGTON — Can you be charged interest on your mortgage even after you've fully paid it off? Can the meter keep running when you owe the bank nothing — your principal balance is zero? Surprise! Much to the chagrin of large numbers of home sellers and refinancers, the answer for years has been yes. If your loan was insured by the Federal Housing Administration and you paid it off before maturity, at closing you'd be expected to cough up a full month's interest, no matter what day of the month you actually settled. Even if you closed on March 2, for instance, you'd be charged interest by your loan servicer through March 31, potentially adding hundreds of dollars to your costs in the transaction. The FHA's practice has been u...

Good news for Realtors, lenders and condominium unit owners who’ve been frustrated by FHA’s prohibition of “spot loans” in developments that haven’t obtained certification: The agency is now seriously exploring how to relax its ban and bring them back. Officials are mum on the details and timing, but they confirmed to me on Friday that reviving this key financing option is now under active study. The main reason: FHA is under growing political and trade group pressure — NAR and the Community Associations Institute especially — to do so. Source - Inman News - Ken Harney - Contributer.   This would be a major benefit to both first time buyers and condo/town home owners.  A large percentage of first time buyers are only qualified for a price range that will allow them to buy a condo or tow...
