What’s My Upland CA Home Worth? – Find the Value of Your Upland CA House In this current real estate market, understanding the current value of your Upland home can be a confusing task. Even so-called experts, banks and real estate agents have a tough time determining the market value of Upland California houses. There are websites like Zillow and Yahoo Real Estate that enable you to input your address and get a formula-derived price of your Upland home, but these tools are unreliable because the data feeds that enable this can sometimes be inaccurate. These tools also do not take into account the varying differences in homes, like condition, upgrades and other amenities. So what is the best way to determine the price of your Upland CA home? By ordering our FREE Comparative Market Analy... 05/08/2013

 Upland CA Short Sale Specialists FIND A SHORT SALE LISTING AGENT IN UPLAND CA / UPLAND SHORT SALE REAL ESTATE AGENT / SHORT SALE REALTOR UPLAND CA It is easy for Upland CA home sellers to find many listing real estate agents to list their Upland CA home, but if you need to find a Upland short sale listing agent, the task will be more difficult. A short sale real estate agent does much more than take pictures and put your Upland home in the MLS (Multiple Listing Service) and put a sign in the yard. The Upland CA short sale agent also handles negotiations with your bank or banks. If your Upland real estate agent has no experience dealing with short sales, loss mitigation and bank negotiators, you, the seller, may suffer. Most of our real estate home listings and sales have been short sal... 02/28/2013

It's A SELLER's Market In the Upland, CA Area...... OR IS IT? By Brad Rachielles, REALTOR, CDPE. Overall, the Upland, CA area real estate market IS what you would call a Seller's market. In my service area, there were a total of 1218 homes for sale at the end of September, and 802 homes were sold in that month. The math says that there are approximately 1.5 months of inventory, and according to the graphic scale to the right, that is solidly in the Seller's Market area. Fewer Homes + Multiple Offers + Increasing Prices = a Seller's Market. BUT, WHAT IF WE CONSIDER ONLY THE HIGHER PRICED HOMES? By price range using the same formula: $800,000 - 900,000 = 10.5 Months supply $900,000 - $1,000,000 = 9.0 Months supply $1,000,000 - $2,000,000 = 14.0 Months supply Certainly, there are fewer buy... 10/22/2012
