GREAT REPORT FOR SOUTHEAST VALLEY SALES & INVENTORY
This is the latest 2008 "last 30 day" report for the Southeast Phoenix Valley market.
This data is provided roughly weekly courtesy of First American Title.
Please use the BACK arrow to return to this Blog after viewing the data:
MLS INVENTORY - 03/26 - SOUTHEAST VALLEY
While the number of listing only increased by 134 Homes since the Feb.13 report below, the 30 day period ending Mar.26 produced new contracts in escrow of 2781 (a 24.4% increase) and sales of 1625 homes (a 43% increase) from the Feb.13 report. Good news indeed and hopefully a sign of the months ahead of us. This is later data than the article two steps below this which reported a 3% national increase in Feb.
An editorial comment based on conversations with other Realtors and heard from Investor presumed Experts - we may be at the bottom. I personally feel there may still be something under 6-8% left to go.
We offer this data as a candid, unfiltered, indicator of home listings and sales activity for your East Valley decision making process.

ARE YOU READY FOR THE FEB 2009 TV CHANGE?
By now you have hopefully heard that some TV sets will stop working on February 17, 2009. We leave the world of Analog TV and enter the era of Digital TV.
If you are not aware, here's the scoop on what will happen and how to be ready for it.
All about the coming change in Television
You will now be prepared to continue as today with your everyday TV watching!
And by the way, as predicted in this blog, Blu-Ray is the winner in the chase toward the preferred format for High Definition DVDs. It does appear that there will be some sources for the HD DVD format for some time, but don't rush out and buy one of these units at this stage. That goes for Beta VCRs and 8 Track tape players as well!

Rising Housing Sales
A good news, tempered with not so good news, from Realty Times:
Rising Housing Sales Should Be No Surprise
The stock market reacted favorably to the sales improvement in February so maybe we will see some form of turning point soon.

CELL PHONE DO NOT CALL LIST
There is an email making the rounds that suggests March 18, 2008, as a date that Telemarketeers can call your cell phone. To prevent this, you must register on the Government Do Not Call List. It will take 31 days after you register to make this active but it never expires!
As this is written it has been over 3 years since the TRUE effective date, January 1, 2005. Telemarketing companies are required to recheck their lists every 31 days, thus it is better late than never to sign up.
This website is good for cell phone and land line phone numbers, so do them all unless your are a telemarketeer - we hope they get the calls:
DO NOT CALL LIST
This website can also be used to report violaters of the law. Big penalties have been filed against many companies. Feel free to help!
