Welcome To The Latest Issue
Hello and welcome back. Be sure to register today for my free seminar tomorrow: “How To Buy A Foreclosure In San Diego”.

True Story: Go Fishing In Your Own Backyard!
As you may know, mosquitoes can spread the deadly West Nile virus. Mosquitoes love to breed in standing water, such as a green, unmaintained swimming pool. So when one of my bank clients is slow to authorize the cost of maintaining a pool, our pool guy releases “mosquito fish” (Gambusia affinis) into the pool to breed and eat the mosquito larvae. If you buy a foreclosure with a green pool, you might just be able to go fishing in your own backyard. But I don’t advise you to eat your catch…

This Week’s Free Offer:
Join Our “Preferred Client Group” For The Best Real Estate Values
I list or come across great real estate deals every week. But too often we can’t match a client in time and someone else scoops it up. And my bank-clients won’t allow me to buy their properties.

So I developed my “Private Client Group”. The idea is to build a short list of people to call who are serious, qualified, and ready to jump on an excellent real estate value when it comes up.

Do you want to be the first to hear about a great deal on a home or investment property?

If so, here are the 3 simple rules: To be eligible, you must…
1. Pre-approve with one of our approved lenders
2. Come in for a short, 30-minute, sit-down counseling session
3. Commit to work with us

To join and get the jump on the best real estate values in town, call us at (858)457-KENT or email us at PCG@GaryKent.com.

Top 10 San Diego County Neighborhoods:
Highest Value Increase / Lowest Decrease

According to Dataquick Information Systems, real estate values in these San Diego County areas performed the best in Q1 2008 versus Q1 2007.

Neighborhood Price Change
1. 92107 – Ocean Beach +14.4%
2. 92037 – La Jolla +10.8%
3. 92024 – Encinitas + 6.9%
4. 92109 – Pacific/Mission Beach - 0.4%
5. 92130 – Carmel Valley - 1.7%
6. 92128 – Rancho Bernardo E - 4.6%
7. 92127 – Rancho Bernardo W - 5.1%
8. 92129 – Rancho Penasquitos - 5.2%
9. 92020 – El Cajon - 5.3%
10. 92131 – Scripps Ranch - 7.2%

If you live in one of these neighborhoods, does this mean your value went up or down by this amount? No. Medians ≠ averages. As the midpoint of values, medians can be skewed by increases or decreases in the # of sales in the lower or upper range, even if true average prices are unchanged.

HomeBUYING Question


"With this market, I'm thinking of holding off on my home purchase for awhile to see what the market does. I don’t want to buy a home and have it lose value. What do you think?"

***ANSWER:
I sold two of my San Diego properties in 2003 and 2004. I missed the peak by some 10%. Did I regret it?

Not at all.

Realistically, I don’t expect to time the market perfectly, buying at rock bottom and selling at the very top.

And if I can’t time it perfectly, with 24 years as a real estate broker and investor and an economics degree from UCLA, most people shouldn’t expect to…unless they’re smart AND lucky.

No one knows, but many experts believe San Diego (not the nation), is approaching, at, or perhaps just past the bottom of real estate prices. The thought is San Diego will be FIFO: First In, First Out of the real estate slump.

Let me ask you this question:

If you buy a home for $500,000 today and it’s worth $480,000 next year but $520,000 in two years, what did you really lose?

Now I don’t want to come off as just one more real estate industry cheerleader who is ALWAYS saying, “It’s a great time to buy! It’s a great time to buy!”

I’m putting my money where my mouth is:

I’ve listed two of my four Phoenix apartment complexes for sale and intend to move that money into San Diego real estate once they sell.

So should you wait?

Perhaps yes, if you plan to sell within a year or two. Perhaps not if you plan to hold for 2+ years.


HomeSELLING Question


"We listed our home for sale for $550,000 yesterday, but it’s not on the market yet. Now we’re thinking we should ask $580,000. Are we allowed to raise the price?”

***ANSWER:
For all practical purposes, you are. I can’t imagine a broker telling you, “I don’t care. We have a contract and I’m going to force you to list your home for the price we agreed on.”

Now, I don’t know your particular situation. Perhaps you should raise the price.

But a word of caution: Watch out for PRICE CREEP. It’s an emotional and psychological disorder (related to HOMALUCINATION, which I’ll explain in a moment).

Here’s how price creep works:

You meet with your agent and look at the comps and discuss pricing strategy and agree that $550,000 is the right list price.

That night, the little devil on your shoulder starts whispering in your ear, “Why not ask more, you can always come down,” or “Gee, I’d like to get more for my home. Let’s just try for more. What will it hurt?”

Then in a cold sweat, you call your broker and blurt out, “You know, we (you and the devil on your shoulder) have been talking, and we think we want to ask for more. Let’s raise the price to $XXXXX.”

Then you overprice your house, perhaps as prices are softening, and end up selling your home for even less.

Not a great result.

By the way, famed housing economist Christopher Thornberg says “homalucination” is when you believe all the other homes or neighborhoods have fallen in price except yours…


Investing or Financing Question


""Hi Gary, I saw a billboard in Pacific Beach that says ‘Avoid foreclosure. Do a short sale and save your credit.’ Is that true? Will a short sale save your credit?"

***ANSWER:
I’ve seen that billboard too.

They’re lying.

Short sales do NOT save your credit.

They show up on your credit report as a “settled account” and damage your credit as much as, or almost as much as, a foreclosure.
