  Real estate market trends are hard to keep up with. It is difficult even for those of us who work in the industry to grasp exactly what to believe and not to believe unless we do the research for ourselves. Recent reports indicate there are major cities around the nation who are beginning to see property value increases! That is great news. I can’t say that we are having that experience in our metro Atlanta market; however, there are pockets of areas where property values are on the upswing. With that being said, here is some news you may really like if you are a seller who has been sitting on the sidelines the past few years. Have you been maintaining your home over the years? Have you kept it updated? Do you have some equity in the house despite the depreciation we have seen over t...

River Club Short Sale Closes Without Deficiency! The Jarvis Team just closed one of our short sales in the River Club in Suwanee (This is the most expensive and luxurious neighborhood in Gwinnett County by far).  This short sale was a Suntrust mortgage and although it took a few months and we went through 2 buyers, this  River Club short sale was closed and the owner didn't have a deficiency.  Meaning they didn't have to pay Suntrust back anything.  The debt was, of course, forgiven.  I was excited to share this story with you because so often we hear stories about the "average" home that the majority of people in Gwinnett County live in, that you rarely hear about the "ultra" luxury homes being short sold.  However, I'm here to tell you, it wasn't easy but our team did it.  It was defi...

Don't blame the real estate appraiser if the house you're trying to sell or buy isn't worth what you thought it was. Don't shoot the messenger said Appraisal Institute President Sara W. Stephens. Stephens went on to say buyers and sellers often have emotional value attached to a home or are unaware of the market. Stephens pointed out that appraisals completed for mortgage transactions are used to assist lenders in making lending decisions and are not intended to confirm a listing, contract or sales price. Theres no reason to assume the contract price is the correct price. Appraisers dont set the real estate market; they reflect whats happening in the market. Today the law prohibits the loan officer from talking to appraisers or selecting the appraiser. However, experienced and competen...

According to an article dated January 3, 2012 by NAR’s Chief Economist, Lawrence Yun,he is upbeat – based on recent figures – on what 2012 holds for the housing market:Number of units (homes) sold is up; and home prices are stabilizing in areas of the country that have continued to struggle.And…in areas of the country that are still experiencing declines in units sold and home values the declines are not as egregious. Other economic indicators which give him a glimmer of hope, is the job market. There are 100,000 jobs created a month with projected increase moving towards 150,000 a month. That is still not going to absorb the number of lost jobs quickly but at least we are moving in the right direction. What does that mean for the Metro Atlanta real estate market?   Check back as I begi...

November 1, 2011 gave local voters the opportunity to have their voice heard as they cast their ballot for local city mayoral elections in Gwinnett County as well as giving voice to a couple other issues. Among those items to be determined by voters included: Extending the ESPLOST tax for Gwinnett County schools Sale of wine and beer on Sundays  Suwanee Mayor Perspectives on whether the SPLOST tax  for the schools should be extended vary. With the economy struggling and Atlanta's unemployment over 9%, some wonder how you can continue to squeeze blood out of a turnip. However, to maintain the quality school system that Gwinnett County currently is recognized for how can you put an end to the tax? Those questions were put to rest as voters went to the polls on Tuesday. The extension of th...

    It can be very confusing these days to filter through all the news about the housing market. The sensationalist national headlines may sell advertising but are often wrong or misleading for Metro Atlanta or your local market. To further complicate matters, the typical metrics used to track real estate trends do not tell the accurate story in the current market. Did you know that over 50% of all transactions in 2011 have been under $125,000? That has historically been around 10-15% of the market. Did you know that approximately 60% of all transactions are foreclosures or short sales? That is also normally 10-15% of the market. Did you know that many bank-owned properties are selling above their list prices? These changing trends make the traditional metrics for real estate unreliable...
