A Tough Time for Buyer's Homes in Stockton and Lodi, California are in Short Supply
Competition for existing home is fierce. Where is the flood of foreclosure that are out there? No one can come up with a good answer. The competition in today's market place is between buyers. There are more short sales than foreclosures on the market. For properties in the first time buyers price range, buyers are are willing to pay over asking price. "We are not seeing many properties sell for asking price or below" says Hugh Lilly with PMZ Real Estate in Stockton, California. Higher price properties are staying on the market longer and the competition between buyers is not as fierce.
