MLS JUST SOLD - 916 LAKESHORE DRIVE

LINK TO LISTING DETAILS: Just Sold - 916 Lakeshore Drive - Ask Price: $2,695,000 Sold Price: $2,300,000
It's notable that the sales price for 916 Lakeshore Drive was 85% of the ask price.  The property was on the market at the end of 2010 for the ask price of $3,375,000.

Follow the link above to also view just sold sales information for 624 14th Green Drive.  It also sold on May 11.  The final ask price was $1,595,000 and the sales price was $1,418,750, 89% of the listed price.  The initial listing price was $1,695,000 when the property was first placed on the market in June of 2011.

These two new sales indicate that sellers in the upper price ranges, over one million, in Incline, are still stubborn about listing at realistic market prices.  In general they list too high and go fishing for uninformed buyers.  The listing, more often than not, becomes stale and overlooked.  These sellers have to be made to realize that buyers now have fantastic tools to determine fair pricing.  The good old boy days when buyers did not have prior and current sale information within an area, at their fingertips, are long gone.  Tools like Zillow.com, Realtor.com, Trulia.com, and online county public record searching tell the story and provide valuation models as a base to measure a fair sales price.

I have always thought that investment in a professional appraisal is golden for higher priced custom homes.  Most are unique, with varied features / specifications, and need a thorough valuation analysis to accurately price them.

If you are considering listing your home and would like an in-depth professional appraisal to ensure accurate list pricing, contact me for a listing presentation that includes that level of service.  When a seller can present a recent, state licensee appraisal, to a buyer, both parties can feel better about settling on a fair price for the deal.

Falling prices lure second-home shoppers to Lake Tahoe area - Real Estate - The Sacramento Bee

By Hudson Sangree and Phillip Reese
hsangree@sacbee.com

Follow this link to view this Sacramento Bee story describing the current state of Lake Tahoe real estate pricing and increased buyer interest due to that fact.

Link: Falling prices lure second-home shoppers to Lake Tahoe area - Real Estate - The Sacramento Bee:

"Like a lot of vacationers, Rick and Kristie Santos would return from trips to Lake Tahoe during the housing boom wondering what it would take to own a second home there.

They were always disappointed when they looked at the listings.  "You'd jump online and never could afford it," Krities Santos said.  "It was out of reach."

Lately, however, with interest rates dipping below 4 percent and home prices seeking bottom, the Fair Oaks couple started thinking differently.  The Santoses recently joined a growing number of would-be buyers scouting the Tahoe area for second homes."

March Pending Home Sales Rise, Market Recovering | Realtor.org

Nationally home sales are recovering.  Locally, here in Incline Village, sales are up slightly year to date and prices are at their lowest levels since the Great Recession ensued.  If you are interested in buying, now is absolutely the time.  I expect this summer to finally bring balance to the market and provide a base for future growth.

Incline Village real estate: Buyers find gems among pocket listings | TahoeBonanza.com

LINK:  Incline Village real estate: Buyers find gems among pocket listings | TahoeBonanza.com:

Don Kanare of Re/Max, in the Tahoe Bonanza article, writes a good description of off market pocket listing deals that may take place in Incline.  He points out the value of using a local Realtor to sniff out deals.  A local Realtor networks with other salespeople, brokers, contractors, community managers, rental agents and more.

Don's story could be expanded to discuss how the deals are executed in terms of paperwork that should be completed.  You hear many seller customers state "If you bring me a buyer, I'll sell," but I don't want to list the property for sale and have crowds tramp through my home.  In such a situation, a Realtor representing a seller should obtain a one party exclusive listing naming the seller and buyer.  If the parties are not committed to documentation, either may change the deal verbally at any time.  That could become messy.

I have to laugh at the type of seller that wants to sell but is not willing to take action and list.  Compare it to the scenario where you are selling a car, rv or the like.  I want to sell my vehicle but I'm not advertising it or letting anyone test drive it.  The chance of executing a sale under those conditions is a very low percentage, close to zip.

Pocket listings can lead to a deal but they are by far the exception.  Serious sellers should list exclusively with a broker that will work to sell the property for the promise of a commission.

RENO GAZETTE JOURNAL WRITER JUN LONG - DEMAND UP FOR TAHOE HOMES UNDER 500K

RGJ business writer Yun Long interviewed Chase brokerage senior vice president and broker Sue Lowe regarding the current year to date state of the Tahoe real estate market.


In summary, their data displays improvement over last year with more properties sold and demand is trending upward at the lower price levels.  Prices dropped compared to last year and inventory is very low, somewhat artificially, because of the shadow lender inventory being held off the market in Nevada due to AB284 legislation.  The new Nevada law caused lenders to pull back due to accountability requirements.

It should be noted that the article primarily discusses single family home sales.  Also, since the Tahoe basin is a very seasonal and relatively small market for real estate sales, data can be easily skewed with a few low priced, or high priced, sales such as the expensive lakefront estates.

Here is the link to the article:  RGJ writer Yun Long Tahoe basin YTD real estate sales article.

MCCLOUD CONDOS ARE SELLING - PRICES REMAIN LOW

Image unavailable
McCloud unit 96, a one bedroom penthouse unit, is now priced at $279,000.  That asking price should attract buyers.  The complex has a great location, is close to Incline Beach, the recreation center and the tennis complex.  McCloud units are relatively small in square footage but easy to own and they rent well as vacation rentals.

LINK: ACTIVE MCCLOUD LISTINGS as of 4/29/2011

There are currently nine active McCloud condo units on the market.  That number is down quite a bit when compared to last summer's selling season when there were typically about 15 units for sale.  Two units are currently in escrow.

Three bedroom units are now priced in the 500k to 600k range.  Two bedroom units are ranging from about 350k to 450k, depending on size, location and condition.  There is one one-bedroom unit on the market and it is listed at $279,000.

The inventory is being absorbed but prices are still at market lows relative to historical pricing.  Before the economic meltdown, the two bedrooms were running over 500k and the three bedrooms were in the high 700k area.

Incline Village real estate: IPOs and property values | TahoeBonanza.com

Don Kanare, local Incline Realtor wrote an interesting piece about the influence that the San Francisco Bay Area technology industry is having on Lake Tahoe real estate.  In particular, he points out how avoiding California income tax by becoming a Nevada resident could possibly pay for a home here in Incline Village.

Incline Village real estate: IPOs and property values | TahoeBonanza.com:

Don Kanare writes... "With California income taxes for high earning individuals having fluctuated between 9% and 11% over the years, anyone with a few million dollars in stock options can practically get a free residence in Incline Village or Crystal Bay just from the tax savings. The math is pretty straightforward. Relocate to Nevada and establish residency here. Live here for a long enough time to satisfy your accountant and the tax authorities, then exercise your stock options and you have magically avoided paying state income tax to the State of California."

CALIFORNIA HOME PRICES RISE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 16 MONTHS - BLOOMBERG

California Home Prices Rise for First Time in 16 Months - Bloomberg:

This link to the news article sourced from the California Association of Realtors is interesting in light of the fact that Shiller (in my last blog entry) claims that real estate is not an investment.  My thoughts were that he does not address the tax or lifestyle benefits of owning a home.

The real estate is up or down discussion is the same as the stock market... depends on who you are interviewing and what their political leaning is that day.

INCLINE VILLAGE FORECLOSURE UPDATE PER FIRST AMERICAN TITLE - as of 3/1/12





Thank you to Lucy Roman of First American Title of Nevada here in Incline Village for the latest foreclosure update.  Note the opening paragraph following.  Foreclosures have slowed and the MLS inventory is shrinking due to the new Nevada law AB284.


The activity below includes foreclosure activity that has occurred  from 2/10/12 through 3/1/12.

Effective October 1, 2011, AB284 of the 2011 Legislative session revised NRS 107 and now requires an Affidavit of Authority to Exercise Power of Sale to accompany Notices of Default. This legislation has limited the number of Notice of Default recordings since that date.

SHADOW (FORECLOSURE) INVENTORY WILL SLOW WASHOE COUNTY HOUSING MARKET IN COMING YEARS | Reno Gazette-Journal | rgj.com

LINK:  Shadow Inventory will slow Washoe County housing market in coming years | Reno Gazette-Journal | rgj.com:

This article is comprehensively researched and provides what I believe is an accurate view of where the market is headed in the future. Hopefully "years" means only perhaps two years, at least in Incline. In the near future at least, it is still a buyer's market.

Incline Village Real Estate: Best Time to Buy Could be January to June 2012 | TahoeBonanza.com

Incline Village Real Estate: Best time to buy could be January to June 2012 | TahoeBonanza.com:

Winter is always a good time to make a deal in Incline Village.  The number of buyers dwindle and the slowest pace of sales usually occurs over the first and second quarters of the new year.  Once The Village fills again in July the stats usually improve.


There is, however, a serious issue that may prolong low prices.  Bank foreclosure delays, caused by new Nevada foreclosure law AB284, have clogged the pipeline of new bank listings.  New Nevada foreclosure filings are at a crawl due to bank lawyers taking pause to learn how to conform to the new rules.  As a result, that delay could provide prolonged price depression.

Maybe the dream of buying Lake Tahoe real estate, especially in tax advantaged Incline Village, Nevada, at a reasonable price, will be continue to be attainable into next summer... or even a little longer.
