As expected, foreclosures continue to sell faster and for less per square foot on average than other homes in Bullhead City, creating an interesting dynamic for sellers. Foreclosed houses may not be the same product as other houses, but they are in the mix competing for buyers.
Foreclosures will continue to be a factor until they move through the market (which they have been doing nicely), but they weren’t center stage in June like they were in preceeding months. After all, June was the highest selling month of the first half of 2008 even though foreclosure sales dropped.
I will continue to post foreclosure stats along with my other market updates so we can keep tabs on that segment of the market. If there are other specific trends you’d like me to comment on, just let me know.
