Whoa! Have you been waiting to buy an investment property for under $100K?! Well, here is your opportunity. 808 Jefferson just came on the market and is definitely a project. Some of the sheet rock has been removed and I would suggest you do some rewiring. This is a home for a conventional buyer as there is no stove and there are a lot of holes in the walls and work to be done, be sure to bring your tool box. The first thing would be to secure the house as not all the doors close. If you have been looking for a great investment buy, here you go! Give me a call at 530-681-8939.
I have several rentals available here in town. They range from $1100 a month to $1700. You can check them out on www.Craigslist.com. Cheryl does a really nice for me of posting them. They all include water, sewer and garbage. Check them out and give me a call.
Well, it is Tuesday and that is the day of the week we update our listings. We come both the Solano County and the Yolo County MLS systems for listings. I know it is hard to believe but today there were only 2! Last week there were eight! Of the two listings one of them has two offers pending so it will be gone soon. There quite a few lisitings out in the country but the majority of those are over $500k. When a new listing comes on the market it goes quickly if it is priced right. It will l a great year number wise for sales. Who knows what next year will hold but in the mean time things are good.
Well, we finally have some new listings priced around $200k! There have been 3 or 4 new listings in the past two weeks. Some of these are already pending sales, if you can believe that. I just came back from showing some of these. Unfortunately most of these new listings are short sales. That means that we have to get the blessing of the bank before we can close. Sometimes that is impossible to get but when we do get lucky it is usually a 3 or 4 month waiting period. Anyway, it is good to have something to show people for a change. If you need any help with finding that perfect house and getting the Obama credit be sure and give a call soon, November 30th is closing in on us.
I am frequently asked, “What is an REO and how can I buy a foreclosed home? An REO is a home that the bank has taken through the foreclosure process and has taken back into their possession. Once the bank takes it back, then they eventually put it on the market to sell. Most of our inventory this year has been foreclosed or REO property. So, if you are looking to purchase an REO, I am here to help you. Give me a call and I can give you more info on the process. Let me know if this info was helpful.
WOW! There were not one but two new listings in the past few days in town. Unbelievable! I have been waiting for listings like these, how about you!? These are finally some nice larger homes but not too expensive for sale. One is on Snapdragon that was a short sale for a very long time and the other is on Neimann Street. Very exciting to finally have some new inventory and some move up housing. I’ll keep you posted.
Well, the numbers are in for the first quarter for real estate sales in Winters. We have been averaging around 2.5 sales a month for the past year or so but in the first quarter of this year we have had 11 closed transactions! Five of those were in March, which means buyers were out looking for deals in January and February. In March, we had six closings! This is good news for everyone as real estate sales always help the economy. Many people go out and buy things for their new homes so stores like Loew’s and Home Depot do well. With the summer months ahead people will be working in their gardens too. Let’s all hope this keeps up. Currently, we have 18 pending sales. If you have any other real estate questions don’t hesitate to call me.
Have a good week. www.sandyvickrey.com
408 First Street, Winters, CA will soon be available to rent. Once people move in here they just seem to stay. I have had two long term tenants in this home. It is an adorable two bedroom one bath house located in the heart of downtown right next to the Abbey House Inn. The hardwood floors were refinished and are gorgeous. It has a large period kitchen where you can sit in the breakfast nook on Saturday morning and read the paper. Relax this summer in the backyard. Walk a short block to downtown and get a coffe at Steay Eddie’s or catch some entertainment at The Palms. You just can’t lose with this home. Call today to see it. www.sandyvickrey.com

This seems to be a hot property. I got two calls from Solano County agents who want to make sure the property is still available and want to show it tomorrow. Check it out on my website at www.sandyvickrey.com. It is listed for $224,900. and is located in the core area of Winters, right in the heart of all the action.
I just listed 1030 Roosevelt Ave, Winters, CA. This is really a good buy. My owner is an investor and is very motivated to sell this property. The home needs some TLC like new carpets, lino, paint and propabaly a new roof. But, this is a nice home and I have seen it all fixed up and it is very cute. If you are looking for a good starter home or an investment then call me to take a look.
