We’d heard this at the Shasta MLS. Here’s an article seeming to confirm it. Right now, Freddie and Fannie clerks hand out REO homes to individual brokerages to sell, in a classic unpublished no-bid contract. Under this idea, they will instead sell the homes to investors in a pool to be used only as rentals, n

Here’s a look at a really interesting home, built on what we in the Northstate would call a Butte. It’s a singular setting, and the unique postmodern circular house rises to the occasion. The brief video starts after a short commercial. Wow, only $750K? Let us know if you’d like to buy it.

Nobody local seems to want to build tiny homes anymore. The reason is purely economic. Housing is primarily valued on square footage, all else aside. Yet, years ago in Redding, small homes were quite common. How much space do you really need? Here’s a really interesting blog about tiny homes and their owners. A tho

There has been noticeable sharp drop in the number of local homes for sale around here. We have more buyers than homes to buy. In an ordinary marketplace, the laws of supply and demand would force prices higher, but this is housing in 2012. Housing supply and financing availability is set by the government. Fannie Mae, F

Yesterday we listed 662 Joaquin Ave Redding CA 96002 for sale. Its a classic Redding ’60s ranch style home that was quite upscale for the times. It’s had some updating, but retains its mid-century hipster vibe. We shot a tour video, and it does a good job of showing it off. We like to make fun of the big-hair

I’m in the camp that thinks retiring without a mortgage is the best plan. But there are a number of considerations that may make that choice the wrong one for your personal circumstances.

Here’s a nice REO home in the Tierra Oaks neighborhood. It’s said to be a 2550 sqft 4/3 on 3 acres. It once listed as high as $526K. We recall it as failed short sale from a while back. Now it’s a Fannie Mae asset, and while it is as yet un-priced, it should be listed shortly. Give us a call if you have

Local housing inventory for sale is down. From our perspective on the ground, we’re seeing an increase in serious buyers.

This idea took me off guard at first. Sell off our real estate to foreigners, in return for a visa in the U.S? On reflection, what could be more American, or more purely capitalist?

Home buyers often learn about the neighbors only after moving in. Here’s a Colorado man who thinks you ought to know more about him as neighbor before you buy. Hard to argue the logic of it, but I’m sure the seller wishes it weren’t so. Around here in Shasta County, the neighbor’s yard often speak
