Foreclosure Counts Confirmed in Williamson County

Foreclosures Counts Confirmed in Williamson County,Foreclosures are UP in Williamson County,Foreclosures increase in Williamson CountyOur team ran stats against the foreclosure counts published last week here on the blog.  They are real.  Up to 306 properties from 209 in August.  So we have confirmed the foreclosure counts for Williamson County and have also done some research around this issue.  It would appear that the secondary market investors are calling in their chips on a broad scale.  Many lenders are now being asked to foreclose on delinquent loans rather than seasoning them to protect property values.  This would explain the sudden rise in foreclosures that we have noted.

If you have considered selling, now may be the best time rather than waiting.  If this trend of flooding the market with foreclosures here in Central Texas continues, we could start experiencing value losses.  We have been able to weather the storm of the economic downturn nicely to this point, BUT that could change as well.

If you are in the market to sell, or if you have tried to sell unsuccessfully recently, call us today and let us work out a marketing plan for you that will work!

Call Congress! Extend the home buyer tax credit in Round Rock and around Texas!

Call Your Congressperson TODAY!  Extend the home buyer tax credit!The clock is ticking on the first-time home buyer tax credit, which expires on December 1, 2009.   However, more time is needed to continue to stimulate housing, which will play a big role in fixing the national economy.   

If Congress acts to extend the tax credit program, it would spur 383,000 additional home sales, including 80,000 housing starts down the road as additional sales help deplete the inventory of unsold homes. This stimulus will create nearly 350,000 jobs over the coming year.  That's good for the economy and good for America.

  How You Can Help   Call your members of Congress today toll-free at 866-924-6242 and tell them to: 

  • Extend the deadline for the $8,000 home buyer tax credit through November 30, 2010; and
  • Make it available to all home buyers.

Thank you for your help in letting Congress know that to restore America, we must revive housing.
