Testimonials
"After months of searching for a home and working with several agents, I found Sherry to be a breath of fresh air. Unlike my other Agents that pushed me into buying, Sherry consistently listened to my needs and also explained the homebuying process to me. She didn't rush me into a decision, and expressed to me many times that purchasing a home is a very important decision. I appreciated her patience. She found me the home of my dreams. I would recommend Sherry to anyone interested in buying a home."

"Sherry did a fantastic job listing and selling my house. After 2 offers with escrows falling out for one reason or another, Sherry's persistence paid off. Not only did she sell my home quickly in a difficult market, she got a fair price for my property. I would recommend Sherry to anyone trying to sell their home."

I live and work in the Murrieta area and work with many buyer's that want to purchase homes as investment properties. The plan is to buy low, rent out until the market picks up than sell the property for a profit. We are seeing this all over the place. You can buy a 3 bedroom, 2 bath home for an average of $200K. Rentals in the Temecula, Murrieta and Menifee areas are very typical. While people are losing their homes, naturally they need a place to live and the rental business has picked up considerably. Give me call. I can help and because I live and work in the area I know the best deals and watch the market carefully!

I can certainly help your son not only get pre approved (not pre qualified) but find him a home in the Murrieta area. The first step is to find out how much he qualifies for. There are several first time buyer programs as well as FHA which requires 3% down. If your son is short on cash reserves, banks are typically paying closing costs on bank owned properties and in some cases short sales. There are also some lenders that have special financing programs and incentives for first time buyers. If your son is still looking, please give me a call as I can help answer any questions and find him a home that meets his needs.

Six months have gone by since you posted your question so hopefully by now you have made your move and are in your new home, but if not and you or other readers are still on the fence. here are some good reasons to buy. Realestate is ON SALE at deep deep discounts. Like many of the experts say , now is the time where millionaires are made...truthfully! While inventory is up prices have decreased in Riverside County by -36%. Most people that could not afford to buy a home in the past are now purchasing homes at deep deep discounts. The result is that sales have risen in Riverside County by 106% YTD. The volume of serious buyers are out looking and buying. Well priced properties are moving fast and with multiple offers. If you have been sitting on the fence waiting for the right time to buy, you may want to consider making your move. I can help so please give me a call or check out my web-site for more information.

I'm located just 1 offramp north of Murrieta in a quaint city called Menifee. I lived in Murrieta several years until I moved to Menifee. If you are looking for a home, prices start in the mid 100s (some great investment and first time buyer opportunities) to about $350K-400K. You can find a beautiful newer home with 4+ bedrooms and 2+ baths in a nice area for around $250K. We have an abundance of both Bank Owned homes and short sales. If you are interested in exploring the growing community of Menifee, please give me a call. I can certainly help with this area or Murrieta.

Hi Irene:
In answer to your question, you can get a home which is either in the pre-foreclosure process (aka short sale) or already foreclosed on for substantially cheaper than the newer homes. Banks are pricing homes below market value and there are some fantastic deals out there right now. However, bank owned homes are selling very quickly in this market. Although prices have dropped YTD by 36%, sales have risen in Riverside County with the most recent figure at 106%. I just heard this figure on tonights evening news! As for 'leader' I'm not sure what you mean by that? Are you referring to the lender, whos on first?
