Everyone is thinking it is time to buy … foreclosures!  Big discounts… The newspapers say so!  The television says so.  The internet says so.  It must BE so!  Well, there are foreclosures throughout the country, but the numbers and types vary according to the area of the country and even the community you are looking at!  Very desireable areas may have few or none.  Areas that were already troubled have many more.  But St. Louis real estate is, in many ways, unique.  We have been such a stable real estate market for as long as I have been in real estate (25 years!) that we had few people who overextended as they did in California or Florida!  In addition, foreclosures here are listed in the Multi List system, so, if you are looking for them, you will find them scattered here and there.  And often not exactly where you would like to live!  Every family has a dream house in a dream area and it is sorta hard to put that house in that area — exactly!  What I suggest, as interest ratess are now pushing 4-1/2% and we may never see that again!, is to call us and let us do the hard work for you!  We are specialists in putting together that house in that area at the right price.  Or, if you want to browse on your own, go to our website, www.theirvineteam.com and take a look at the newest and latest listings!  You’ll find it isn’t only foreclosures that will be interesting.  Many many, in fact, most homes have adjusted their prices to compete with those distressed houses!  And they could very well be that perfect house in the perfect area you have been dreaming about your whole life!  Get on board before it is too late!
