There were 30 total single family sales for the month of October, 2010 ranging in price from $237,900 to $843,000. Last month, there were 29 total single family home sales. There was 1 more Parkland single family home sold in the month of October than in September, 2010.

Among the 30 sales for the month of October, over half (17 total) of the sold homes were located in Heron Bay & Parkland Golf & Country Club.  Like, the previous months, there were a total of 14 distressed sales (short sales and bank foreclosures) sold in October, 2010.  As a result, many Parkland buyers are fixated on getting more bang for their buck and are buying homes at record low prices.

With the increase in distressed sales, the overall Parkland real estate market will continue to improve and stabilize, as more and more distressed homes come off the market in the City of Parkland.  But, is purchasing a distressed sale the best option for buyers?

We educate our buyers on the advantages and disadvantages of purchasing bank foreclosures or short sales.  These distressed sales usually require more work and more out of of pocket money after a buyer closes on the property.  Buyers also need to be aware of the higher taxes and longer wait time for distressed sales.  In particular, short sales can take 6-9 months or even longer to close, as banks are currently inundated with pending distressed property sales.

Parkland Real Estate Single Family Market Home Update For September 2010 Presented By Realtor Michael Citron

parkland-septemeber-real-estate-home-salesThere were 29 total single family sales for the month of September, 2010 ranging in price from $205,000 to $999,000. Last month, there were 35 total single family home sales. There were 6 less Parkland single family home sales in the month of August than in July, 2010.

Among the 29 sales for the month of September, approximately half (14) of the sold homes were located in Heron Bay & Parkland Golf & Country Club.  Like, the previous months, many of the short sales and foreclosures are located in both of these communities.  With all the buzz surrounding the great sales success for the new pre-construction homes at Parkland Reserve, many buyers are looking to purchase in West Parkland.  As a result, more and more Parkland home inventory is selling, which again helps the overall Parkland real estate market, which is still absorbing the short sales and foreclosures.

The distressed sales (short sales or bank foreclosures) in Parkland have been moving at a faster pace than in previous months.  13 of the 29 total home single family home sales were distressed. Hopefully, as this inventory is sold to end users, the overall Parkland real estate market will continue to improve.

We keep telling our readers and clients that NOW is the time to buy in Parkland.  Parkland has never been more affordable to live as mortgage interest rates continue to be at record low levels.  Want to raise your children in one of the best school districts and safest cities in the country?  Then, click on the following link to learn the Top 5 Reasons To Live In Parkland Florida
