This is the new Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives Program.  This program aims to simplify and streamline the use of short sale and deed-in-lieu options so they are more viable alternatives for borrowers.  For help with a short sale situation in the Eugene/Springfield area, call Cathy Watkins of Barnhart Associates at 541-284-4132.

Inventory is now at 6.2 months. This is fairly low.  The last time inventory was under 6.2 months was in July of 2007.  At that time the inventory was at 6 months.   Might be a good time to consider putting a property on the market!

When we compare October 2009 with October 2008, we see that pending sales fore 41.7% and closed sales increased by 5.7%.  Total market time is down 4.1 % This means days on market October 2009 was at 107 and day on market October 2008 was 112.

For a complete report, call 541-284-4132 or email me at cathyreal@comcast.net.  I will send you a complete report and will be happy to discuss all your real estate needs.
