Prescott Area Market Report
Eleven new foreclosed or short sale homes came on the market, about one in every seven homes being listed in the Prescott Arizona Area MLS system, and one fifth of the closings were distressed sales in Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, Dewey-Humboldt and the outlying areas of Yavapai County. This is two weeks in a row that foreclosure activity is down.
But we’re not out of the woods yet. This week there were 117 Notices of Default (NOD) filed with the County Assessor…in about 104 days, we’ll see most of them come on the market as REOs.
The difference between what newly listed traditional homes and Prescott foreclosed/REO and short sale properties per square foot remains large at a 30% discount.
Last year Prescott had the distinction of becoming an MSA and our first report was to be listed as the 25th MSA in the nation with foreclosures as a percentage of our households according to RealtyTrac.
