yes I think you should definatley go for it try checking out pre forclosure list you can even save more . ask your loan advisor or local real estate agent if they have any houses for sale that are also in pre forclosure you can usually buy for lower than it appraises you can check on the forclosure list to see how much thay owe so you can make an offer that will benefit both them and you. |

Purchasing your first home is a very important decision. I would agree with the buyers market theory also. I currently have a lady purchasing a house in Fresno with 20k in equity. An important thing in buying your home especially in that type of market where prices are higher than most is how much you can afford. Before you even step foot into a realtors office I would suggest you get approved for a mortgage. You can get an official approval, competitve rates and programs at my company site http://www.justgetaloan.net/ Getting approved does two major things for you: 1 it lets the realtor know they have a real client, I know it sounds lame but they will treat you 100% better when you have been approved. 2) Being approved gives you buying power. Imagine you were the seller if you wanted to sell your home for $300,000 and i walk up to you and said Ive been approved for $285,000 and can close within weeks they are more willing to take that official offer than trying to hold off for people who they do not know they can really buy the home. This creates a better situation for you becuase now you have equity or money in the home. If you would like further assistance feel free to contact me at 866 530 7300 ext 7305 or email me at jfreeman@justgetaloan.net |

This is the best time to buy. If you are in Cali this is perfect for you. The market is always on the rise over there. For once there is a chance for the fist time home buyer to buy into this expensive market. There are also a ton of foreclosure properties on the market. If you would like the list of these property's or just need a little help feel free to contact me. |

If you can afford it, go for it. Real estate is one of the best investments you can make, especially in CA. Get a fixed rate mortgage, and work with a professional broker/realtor as they know the market and will negotiate in your best interests. Best wishes. |

As a suggestion you might want to contemplate picking up a government foreclosed property in California instead of going first to the retail market. Here go check them out:
Homes and properties being sold by the different departments in US Government:
http://www.hud.gov/homes/homesforsale.cfm
If you don't like what you see then maybe you should go look at the retail market place.

Since you are in Cal first off ask why is there a bubble and how much will it deflate.
Low ball big time and look on the County Assessor website to see when and what price they payed for the home. if they got it in the last five years they are most likely upside down and it is default time.
Also check out this web site.

I cant speak for CA but Sydney is the same at the moment. You first need to organise your finance there is no point in going shopping without a budget. The internet is a good place to start just to get a feel for what the going prices are, you need to narrow your location to a few suburbs or areas. All agents have access to recent sales information you can ask them to assist you.
The best way to get a feel for an area is to drive around try out their coffee shops and local facilities, a lot of people rent in the area they want to purchase in for 6 months prior to purchase.
Good Luck - real estate also goes in 7 year cycles if the market is down at the moment then it is the best time to purchase. |

The market will probably continue to soften. If you love the house then buy, if you are just looking to make money then wait 2-3 years, build your cash and look to pickup a foreclosure. |

I would definitely suggest researching any prospective areas you would like to purchase in. Pick up a few of those home guides at the grocery store just to get a feel for what's going on in your market. Also look in the newspaper, the amount of ads of homes for sale that have been "reduced" should also give you an idea of what is happening. I am originally from Los Angeles now I reside in Las Vegas, homes here have been sitting on the market for months as opposed to a few weeks or even a few days. Sellers now are entertaining all offers instead of watching bidding wars between prospective buyers. When the market softens sellers tend to contribute more towards the transaction because they know serious buyers are becoming somewhat scarce. Whatever your decision is I would suggest that you get pre-approved by a lender before you really get wrapped up in making your purchase. The Realtors that I work with prefer that their buyers get prequalified with me first, that way they have a good idea of what price range will be suitable for the buyers. |
