San Diego Foreclosure Friday - Volume 4

To round out the month of March for another San Diego Foreclosure Friday, I thought I would show you that there is something available in every price range when it comes to the San Diego foreclosure market. This week we will be taking a look at homes on opposite ends of the price spectrum. Whether you are looking for a foreclosure in La Jolla with a multi-million dollar ocean view, or you are a first-time home buyer or investor looking for a great condo for under $200,000 that's just minutes to the beach, the San Diego foreclosure market has something for everyone!

San Diego Foreclosure Friday - Volume 3

It's Friday! And you know what that means! The work week is over (well, not for us San Diego Realtors), and it's time for another San Diego Foreclosure Friday! This week we are checking out the best foreclosure deals in downtown San Diego.

Downtown San Diego used to just mean the Convention Center, the Gaslamp, Horton Plaza, some hotels and a few high-rise condos. Besides the few blocks of the Gaslamp and the cruise ships in the bay, there wasn't much reason to go downtown. But all that has changed over the last 10 years!

Everywhere you look there is a new high-rise condo that either just went up or is on it's way. Some of San Diego's best restaurants, hottest night-clubs, and glitziest hotels are all downtown. And don't forget Petco Park, home of the San Diego Padres and huge headliner concerts such as the Rolling Stones and Madonna. And the best part is you can walk to everything!

So what I'm trying to say it, it's not your grandma's old downtown anymore.

Whether you're a young professional who wants the energy of city living, or your looking for a second home or an investment property, downtown San Diego has a little bit of everything, and best of all, some foreclosures in every price-range.

San Diego Foreclosure Friday - Volume 1

In 2008 about 80% of the buyers that I worked with ended up purchasing a foreclosure property. That trend continues with the buyers that I am currently working with in 2009. So I tend to get a lot of questions about the San Diego foreclosure market. People want to know just how good of a deal these foreclosure properties really are.

So starting today, and every Friday until the foreclosure market slows down and dissipates (and believe me, I think we still have a while before that happens), I will be posting two of the best foreclosure properties in San Diego for that week.

The first property that I will post will be a foreclosure that sold that week so that you can check out what it sold for, and the next will be one that is currently available so that you'll be aware of some of the best deals the San Diego foreclosure market has to offer.

So, without further adieu...
