Sacramento Reduced

A commenter recently asked about price reductions in the area. Zip Realty recently reported that over 35% of listings in Sacramento have been reduced. I believe that's the highest statistic I've seen since I started this blog in January. According to Zip Realty, the Sacramento real estate market ranks #2.

Tip of the hat to the always excellent Bubble Markets Inventory Tracking blog.

Per Zip Realty, 38 out of 116, or just under 33% of the listings they have for zip code 91406, in the Van Nuys/San Fernando Valley section of Los Angeles, have had price reductions.

What I find interesting is the number of real estate offices here in Loomis that have closed their doors. The commercial zone for Horseshoe Bar Road runs from HWY 80 to Taylor Road. Maybe a quarter mile in length. Six months ago there were four real estate offices. Now there is one. Certainly rather telling.

You can't help but notice reduced price signs all over town.
Some people pay attn . . others, like my wife, just go thru life with blinders on not noticing or caring about anything that doesnt smack em upside the head !
You can preach, rant, rave, lecture, coax, bully, etc but they will still just stare at you with cow eyes of incomprehension.
It's so like The Matrix - spooky Maddening!! ( but not John Maddening )

Anyone else seen signs of local consolidation in the real estate industry? I'm really interested in this topic. Back in March, I read that the Remax Central franchise merged with Remax Gold. Don't know if that had anything to do with bad market conditions or not.
