Just Sold in Courtside of Broken Sound Country Club ~ This was a Short Sale
Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010 at 10:31am. 120 Views, 0 Comments.
I just sold this gorgeous courtyard home in the Courtside subdivision of Broken Sound Country Club. For those of you who don't know the lingo, a Courtyard Home is one in which the swimming pool and patio are in the front of the house. You usually enter through the entrance doors into a courtyard and then the front door of the house is through the courtyard. Many courtyard homes in Boca Raton have detached guest houses as well.
This stunning home in Broken Sound Club has four bedrooms and four baths in the main house, in addition to a one bedroom suite guest houses. It has beautiful Brazilian wood floors throughout, and over 3400 square feet in total.
Broken Sound Club is an equity country club in a fabulous central Boca Raton location.
This was a Boca…

Short Sale Myth #1: Boca Raton Short Sales Do Not Get Approved
Thursday, May 13th, 2010 at 2:48pm. 168 Views, 0 Comments.
With short sales making up over twenty percent of all Boca Raton real estate listings, and over thirty percent of those listings under $400,000, it is time to answer some commonly held questions and misperceptions about short sales.
SHORT SALE MYTH #1: Short sales take 9-12 months and do not get approved.
This is the most difficult part of a short sale process for both buyers and sellers. The lenders are slammed with files and do not always respond promptly. And it is true that the lender will not look at a file without an executed purchase contract. However, I am finding that the process is becoming more streamlined and it is possible to get a response in a more timely manner. The average process is as follows: Once there is an executed contract subject…

Karen Rothstein's first Blog Post- About finding a good Boca Raton real estate deal

‘IF YOU CAN FIND ME A “GREAT DEAL” PLEASE LET ME KNOW…THAT’S WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR!”
This is probably the most frequent request I hear when working with a buyer looking for Boca Raton real estate. Of course I haven’t met anyone who has said, “price doesn’t matter”. The truth of the matter is really quite simple. It’s all inventory whether it is a Boca Raton short sale, Boca Raton Foreclosure or a regular deal (an arm's length transaction between a motivated buyer and seller). What is different about each one of those sales is the process that you undertake to purchase the home.
Yes, it is important to know the difference between a short sale and a foreclosure because since the process is different, a short sale or foreclosure may not be a viable option…
The Boca Raton Real Estate Market continues to be a strong Buyer's Market
Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010 at 1:04pm. 150 Views, 0 Comments.
I have been spending some time examining the Boca Raton real estate market and the underlying statistics of what is happening in our area. I think it's important to discuss the market in terms of price bands, as we have a wide range of inventory and price ranges in our local market. As an example, I have analyzed the current situation for single family homes in Boca Raton, in various price ranges. Check out this chart below:
What is most interesting to me is that the number of months of inventory for homes priced between $750,000 and $999,999 is a whopping 92 months! Only two homes in this price range sold in February 2010 out of 193 listings! Not that it's so great for homes over a million, but they are actually faring better, with 45 months supply.…
2009 Boca Raton Area Luxury Real Estate Market Wrap-Up
Thursday, January 21st, 2010 at 3:04pm. 206 Views, 2 Comments.
The news continues to be bleak for the luxury real estate market in Boca Raton, Delray Beach, and Highland Beach at the end of 2009 and beginning of 2010.
Last fall I wrote a blog post about the Boca Raton Luxury Market for the six months ending September 30, 2009. THis is a followup to that previous post.
I have examined the current state of the market for properties in excess of $1,000,000 for the last half of 2009.
Here are the number of sold properties in relation to current listings for each price band for the last six months:
Here is an illustration of the current month's supply in each of the price bands:
It is very clear from these illustrations that the luxury market continues to be hammered. While the number of current listings in excess of…
Montoya Circle Boca Raton 2009 Real Estate Market Wrap-up
Sunday, January 10th, 2010 at 1:47pm. 271 Views, 0 Comments.
There were a total of 24 home sales that closed in Montoya Circle Boca Raton in 2009. That's a decline of about 20% from those closed in 2008. Montoya Circle, like the rest of the Boca Raton and Palm Beach County area, felt the impact of the recession and prices have declined sharply from the peak of Summer of 2006 and have even declined sharply over the 2008 average prices. Several of the sales have been short sales and foreclosures, and the general Boca Raton market conditions prevail in Montoya Circle. The community is characterized by its proximity to the popular Boca Raton Synagogue and continues to attract residents that require a location which is walking distance to the synagogue. However as in the past many people moved to the area from the New…
