Pending Home Sales Highest in 18 Months

"Like" Pruitt on Facebook Pruitt on Linked In Pruitt on Twitter Pruitt's YouTube Channel Pending Home Sales Highest in 18 Months By Tiffany Hsu RISMEDIA, Wednesday, January 04, 2012-- (MCT)--The most Americans in more than 18 months signed contracts in November to buy homes, raising hopes that a boost in sales will follow, NAR reported Thursday. An index of pending purchase agreements rose to 100.1 last month, up 7.3 percent from October, according to the National Association of REALTORS®. The reading is the highest since the gauge spiked to 111.5 in April 2010, when buyers rushed to take advantage of an expiring federal tax credit. The November increase followed a 10.4 percent gain from September to October. A reading of 100 is typically considered a healthy level, according to the association. The index is up 5.9 percent from November 2010. But economists cautioned that many potential buyers are canceling deals before the sale goes through. "Housing affordability conditions are at a record high and there is pent-up demand from buyers whove been on the sidelines, but contract failures have been running unusually high," Lawrence Yun, the realty groups chief economist, said in a statement. The latest jump in pending home sales could be a result of buyers recommitting to contracts after hashing out problems that had put deals on hold. Most home-buying agreements are finalized a month or two after a contract is signed. The largest growth in signed contracts last month came in the West, with a 14.9 percent boost, followed by increases of 8.1 percent in the Northeast, 4.3 percent in the South and 3.3 percent in the Midwest. Last week, the Commerce Department said housing starts were up 9.3 percent in November from October, even as statistics from DataQuick showed home sales down 4.2 percent in California in the same period (though they were up 4 percent from a year earlier). Home prices have continued to fall in the nations largest cities, dropping 1.2 percent from September to October, according to the Standard & Poors/Case-Shiller index--probably leading some potential buyers to try to wait for the market to bottom out. ©2011 the Los Angeles Times Distributed by MCT Information Services RISMedia welcomes your questions and comments.

Now is the time to buy! Prices are down, inventory is up, and mortgage rates are at an all-time low!

As of December 27, 2011, Brevard County's Multiple Listing Service (MLS)
reports a current inventory of 232 active Melbourne, FL area foreclosures for sale.

But what does that mean for you?

"Foreclosure is the legal process whereby a lender (bank or secured creditor) terminates the owner's right to a property that was pledged as security for a debt. The lender usually then forces a sale of parcel of the real estate or home, often at a public auction, to satisfy the debt after the owner defaulted to comply with the agreement between the borrower and the lender."

But why consider buying a Melbourne FL foreclosure? Aside from home prices declining, and mortgage rates at an all-time low, there are several advantages to purchasing a Melbourne FL foreclosure, [or REO (real estate owned)] property.

* Since the bank owns the property, they are in a position to negotiate several terms of the sale, including (but not limited to) sale price, down payment, escrow amount and time, closing costs, etc.
* The bank will have clear title to the foreclosure, thus the buyer does not risk assuming any liens due to unpaid taxes, mortgage payments, HOA fees, etc.
* Melbourne, FL foreclosures will most likely be listed in the local MLS, so the bank is responsible for paying real estate commissions and fees
* Melbourne, FL foreclosures close within a normal escrow period
* The home will be vacant, expediting the showing and moving processes

Since 1954, Pruitt Real Estate has been at the forefront of Brevard County real estate. Melbourne FL foreclosures present opportunities for buyers of all types, whether you're a first-time homebuyer, a retiree looking to downsize or purchase a vacation home, or an investor seeking alternatives to the risky stock market.

Let us build the bridge between your dreams and reality.
