    Hello! Matt Gregory here with the Gregory Real Estate Group. I just wanted to give everyone a real estate update on active listings in the Santa Clarita Valley real estate market . There are currently 1,178 homes for sale in the Santa Clarita Valley. 401 or 34% of these homes are standard sale homes. 158 or 13% of the current active inventory are bank owned properties. Lastly, 579 of the Santa Clarita active real estate market are short sales. That makes up about 50% of our total inventory. I expect these short sale numbers to rise throughout the year so remember to check back in with my blog to see the next update.  Short sales are NOT going away! These numbers continue to rise in the SCV. This tells me that if you are in the market to buy a home, that there is a 50% chance that you will be placing offers on short sales. We work with short sales buyers and sellers everyday. Please contact us if you have any questions about buying or selling a short sale home. Our services are 100% free and we we’ll guarantee every home you buy by providing a FREE ONE YEAR HOME WARRANTY. The buyer must be represented by the Gregory Real Estate Group to take advantage of this FREE offer! These market numbers are based on p[roperties located in the Valencia real estate market, Castaic real estate market, Saugus real estate market, Canyon Country real estate market, Stevenson Ranch real estate market, and Newhall real estate market. The Acton real estate market and Agua Dulce real estate market were not included in this search.

    CAUTION: If your struggling with your mortgage and looking for a solution, please remember to beware of SCAMS out there. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! Never give anyone any money in advance for a loan modification! Avoid those Forensic Loan Audits and Check for Securities! These services are very expensive and rarely yield any substantial results. Loan modifications are really only right for very few people! The best way to avoid foreclosure is usually a short sale! If you decide to move forward with a Santa Clarita Short Sale, be sure to use a real estate agent experienced with with short sales. These transactions are becoming more complex everyday and not all short sales are successful. There’s no need for your  transaction to fail due to the inexperience of your real estate agent.
