If you’d like more information on Littleton foreclosures of Littleton townhomes and condos, give our team of experts a call at 303-726-1874. We still have some availability to show homes this weekend, but these homes won’t last long at these prices, so give us a call today.

Our team watches the market for Castle Rock homes for sale very closely. Several of our team members live in and around the area and we are always looking for great deals on Castle Rock foreclosures for our clients. This task has become much more difficult this year, as the number of Castle Rock foreclosures and HUD homes has fallen drastically.

Where as last year HUD sold 27 single family home in Castle Rock, this year, HUD has sold just 2 Castle Rock foreclosures and there are only 3 under contract. While this declining inventory is happening for all Castle Rock homes for sale, it appears to be hitting Castle Rock foreclosures harder.

Some of this has to do with bank waiting to start foreclosure proceedings until legal ramifications were sorted out with the bigger lenders. This was cleared up last month and we may start to see more movement in the coming weeks.

While the supply of these houses is down, the demand for such homes is way up. Factors, such as the HUD $100 down payment program being offer on all Denver HUD homes, as well as the record breaking interest rates, have caused the demand for these Castle Rock foreclosures to be much higher than normal, and when a new foreclosure hits the market, bidding wars usually commence.

If you are looking in the Castle Rock market, make sure you get set up on our daily email alerts so you don’t miss the newest Castle Rock foreclosures and HUD homes. With the incredibly low supply, you have to move quickly to find the best deals. You can reach our team at 303-726-1874.

We’ve been working with several clients searching for Parker homes for sale this month. Over the last few weeks, there have been very few Parker foreclosures to look at, and this week, there is only one single family HUD home available in the Parker area.

We wanted to highlight that HUD home here, as it is eligible for the HUD $100 down payment program currently being offered to owner occupants of all Denver HUD homes. This is a remarkable deal on a 3 bedroom, 1,400+ square foot home in Cottonwood Parker homes. It has a hot tub and sits on a cul-de-sac. At just $133,000, this home is not going to last very long.

If you would like to learn more about Parker foreclosures or any of the available Parker homes for sale, give our team a call at 303-726-1874. Several of our team members live in Parker, and we can help you find the best deals available.

Summing up the dramatic shift in inventory we’ve seen over the last few months, today we present the entire inventory of Littleton Foreclosures listed by HUD: 1.That’s correct, while in recent months a search of Littleton homes for sale would turn up roughly 5-7 HUD listings, we are now down to just one HUD home active on the market.

Much of this has to do with the drastically declining inventory of all homes on the market (down over 35% since last year). This diminished supply has had it’s predicted impact on demand with our agents routinely seeing several bids, well above askking price, on almost all available Denver HUD homes.

Adding to this demand for Denver HUD homes is the HUD $100 down payment program being offered on all HUD homes. This program allows purchasers who buy HUD homes with an FHA mortgage and plan to live in it as their primary residence, the ability to put just $100 down.

If you would like to be added to our daily email alert for Little foreclosures, give our team a call at 303-726-1874. Our experts can help you find the best deals on the market – even with the diminished inventory.

More news today on Denver Foreclosures confirming what we’ve been reporting regarding inventory of Denver homes for sale. While filings were up slightly, the actual sale of these filing fell to a five year low.

Some of this has to do with banks allowing homeowners to sell homes as short sales or renegotiate their mortgages. But quite a bit has to do with the improving housing market and the plummeting (down 39% year over year) inventory of Denver homes for sale.

From the Denver Business Journal:

Foreclosure filings in Colorado’s urban counties were up slightly in February from a year earlier, but foreclosure auction sales fell to a five-year low, according to a report Wednesday from the Colorado Division of Housing.

New foreclosure filings in the state’s metropolitan counties rose 3.5 percent year-over-year in February, to 2,056 filings from 1,986 in February 2011.

Yet foreclosure sales were down 6.7 percent in February from a year earlier, dropping to 1,248 sales from 1,338.

Again, we’re seeing fewer and fewer Denver foreclosures on the market and a resulting drop in sales. there are still several good deals on the market, but the number of Denver short sales and foreclosures are falling quickly.

If you would like to learn more about foreclosures, short sales or the market for Denver distressed properties, give our team a call at 303-726-1874 today. With the $100 down program being offered on Denver HUD homes, in conjunction with the record low interest rates, this is an unbelievable time to buy a home.
