US Foreclosure Inventory Was Down As Of August 2013

Corelogic, a real estate consulting firm, reported 48,000 completed foreclosures in August 2013, down from 72,000 a year ago. 

The company reported 939,000 of US homes were in some stage of foreclosure as of August 2013.  The year-ago number was around 1.4 million homes, according to Corelogic.  An economist for Corelogic stated, "A surge in completed foreclosures and a rise in the foreclosure inventory is unlikely."

Corelogic reported Florida lead the country with 111,000 foreclosures during the 12-months ended August 2013.  For the country, the company reports fewer than 2 million homes in the "shadow inventory" of foreclosures, which it estimates constitutes about 3.7 months worth of supply.

Agents Can Help With Purchase Of New Homes In New Developments

The misconception among buyers is agents only help with re-sales and not new home construction.  This is not true as many developers invite agents to get first views of new communities and work closely with brokers.
I work with buyers in new communities
Recently new home sales began to slow somewhat.  Given this fact, developers are beginning to offer incentives.  As an agent being aware of the market and current trends, I will work with my buyers to optimize the amount of incentives-- whether it be free upgrades, mortgage rate discounts, price reductions in cash incentives, etc.
