Marvin Homes for Sale

Marvin Homes for Sale continue to challenge many people searching for homes from outside the greater Charlotte Real Estate region.   Many people, especially in the age of the Internet, like to have the freedom to search on their own, to gather information and then be prepared to make a sound and well informed decision.

Homes in The Reserve of Marvin

Places like Marvin (and many areas in the greater Charlotte region) create challenges.  Marvin is actually a village (not a town or city).  It is a small rural location in the northwestern corner of Union County NC.  Marvin has a mailing address of Waxhaw.  Yes, some residents will write Marvin as the mailing address but ultimately, the US Postal service delivers based on Post Offices and zip codes.  The Marvin area is serviced by the Waxhaw Post Office and the US Zip Code is 28173.

Marvin is bordered to the north by Charlotte, more specifically, the Ballantyne Real Estate region of South Charlotte.  To the east of Marvin is Weddington.  Weddington Real Estate is also very popular but that is another blog.

To the south of Marvin is Waxhaw.  Waxhaw Real Estate includes the areas in northern Waxhaw that represent the thriving Union County suburbs of Charlotte.  The southern side of Waxhaw is still largely rural with new communities still popping up.

To the west of Marvin is the South Carolina border and an area known as Indian Land.  Indian Land is in Lancaster County SC and has a Fort Mill Real Estate US Post Office (zip code 29707).  The Firethorne Country Club has homes in both Indian Land and Marvin.  Each has its benefits and both are popular.

As you consider either buying or selling a home in the greater Marvin area, a knowledgeable Realtor ill be a life saver.  As a Realtor in the Marvin Real Estate area, I am very familiar with the area, the schools, the property taxes, nearby shopping, restaurants, parks and much more.

Charlotte New Homes

It is incredible and exciting to see so many builders in the greater Charlotte Real Estate market constructing new homes.  I was with a client yesterday doing their final walk through at a new home in The Palisades.  There are at least six homes within the subdivision under construction!

Charlotte Foreclosure Update Jan 2013

As the economy continues to move along, the Charlotte Foreclosure market continues selling at a strong pace.  For January 2013, a total of 1915 single family homes sold.  Of those, there were a total of 526 foreclosure homes sold. 

So how does this compare?  Total sales increased 25% in January 2013 compared to January 2012.  The total foreclosure sales decreased from our 2012 peak in January of last year of 19% to 27% in 2013.  As long as the sales continue to grow, the market will absorb all of the foreclosures. 

Yes, there is still an abundance of opportunity in Charlotte Foreclosures but at this pace of sales, it is only a matter of time until the Charlotte Real Estate market has a full recovery.

If you have been waiting for the bottom of the Charlotte Real Estate market, it looks like you waited too long!  There are still opportunities but be prepared for multiple offers on aggressively priced foreclosure homes.

Charlotte Short Sales Trends 2012

Charlotte Short Sales Trends continue to track upward in the greater Charlotte Real Estate market.  As a Charlotte Area Realtor, I follow the sales of single family home sales in our greater region.  I have been tracking short sales over the past three years.  I find it helpful to watch trends to forecast where the Real Estate Industry is heading.

Keep in mind that each area of the country in unique.  Real Estate is local.  The Charlotte region experienced a very large expansion over the past decade.  Many were relocating from across the country; many from the northeast.  As the national housing sales slowed, so did the migration to Charlotte.  Yes, it will only be a matter of time until people move on with their lives and make their relocation happen regardless.

The trends:  In 2010, short sales consumed 4.5% of our market.  In 2011 it jumped to 5.7 and then in 2012 it is now at 6.4% of our total market share.  This is a continual rise.  Why?  I list and sell many short sales in the greater Charlotte region.  The down economy continues to take a toll of many families.  Real life happens and there often seems to be no way out.  If you purchased your home at the housing peak, what can you do.    Death, divorce, unemployed, family illness or job relocation are some of the major factors that force a person to sell their home.  What happens if you are $50,000 under market value?  What do you do?  You can not afford to keep paying your previous mortgage.  A short Sale is the answer.  It is much better on your credit report than a foreclosure and still gives you "some" control over your financial situation (as opposed to a foreclosure).

A short sale is never an easy conclusion but you really need to consider every option before you just resign yourself to a foreclosure.  Make the best of a bad situation.  The Federal Government just extended debt forgiveness for many short sales.  This primarily applies to your primary residence and your first mortgage.  The vast majority of 2nd lien holders also forgive the debt but it also depends.  Call me, Rick Waite today to make the best of this situation.  As a Charlotte area Realtor, I will do what ever possible to help.  Call me BEFORE you contract to pay anyone.  A short sale should not cost you for the services!  Learn all about Charlotte Short Sales; an education is the way to begin!

Homes on Lake Davidson

The greater Charlotte region offers an abundance of housing opportunities for you and your family.  One such place is Davidson Pointe on Lake Davidson.  Davidson Pointe is being developed bu Saussy Burbank.  Saussy is a very reputable builder in the greater Charlotte region and is recognized by their colorful Charleston style homes, rocking chair front porches and a community that radiates warmth!

Davidson Pointe sets on Lake Davidson.  Lake Davidson is east of I-77 north of exit 28.  Lake Davidson "appears" to be part of Lake Norman but is actually not connected (separated by the highway) and remains a quiet peaceful lake.  Recreation is plentiful on Lake Davidson but more of a smaller sibling of Lake Norman.

Davidson Pointe is actually located in Iredell County and attends Iredell County and Lake Norman Schools.  You are still incorporated in the town of Davidson (Mecklenburg County) and are part of the charming small town atmosphere that Davidson has to offer. 

Davidson is well known for Davidson College in addition to Davidson Community Charter School.  Davidson Community Charter School is actually one of the top Charter Schools in the southeast!
