Florin Real Estate Market Update: May 2009
… And the sales continue! Florin must be our most dependable area for real estate sales, beating even Elder Creek and Fruitridge! 132 homes sold in the area this May, incidentally the same as last May! The difference is that 14.3% less foreclosure sales closed escrow and 143% more short sales did! Non-distressed sales are also up by about 46.2%. An indication that price increases are to follow? Maybe.
