Yes it’s true! I’m seeing multiple offer situations on well priced properties. Multiple offers can be seen on Foreclosure and Short-sale listings the most. The general impression out there is that Real Estate isn’t doing so hot right now. While it may be true that number of sales are their lowest in over a decade. Single family homes in the $300k-$400k range are attracting multiple offers from qualified buyers who are utilizing special FHA loans which require only 3% down payment and to everyone’s surprise there are buyers who are placing offers with ALL CASH and 20-50% down payment. With inflation at its highest level in years, the dismal performance of the stock market, many savvy investors still bet that purchasing Los Angeles real estate is a secure long term investment. I agree with this due to basic laws of economics; supply and demand factors: they’re not making any more land, developments are becoming more vertical than horizontal, and the glitz and glamour continues to lure more people to the city resulting in appreciating values over next 7-10 years.
