At the Pleasanton City Council meeting on July 15 @ 7:00 the council will meet to discuss adopting two resolutions.

City Council Agenda 7-15-08

More than 5,000 Pleasanton residents signed a petition asking the Pleasanton City Council to place an initiative on the ballot which would limit development on Pleasanton hillsides. Some of what is asked for is.

• Limiting development on hillsides with grades greater than 25% within 100 feet of a ridgeline
• Stricter definition of ‘housing unit’ increasing the current number of residential units in Pleasanton

Supporters are looking for an ordinance that would stop developments like Oak Grove in Pleasanton which is a 51 lot custom home development on 496 acres in the southeast hills of Pleasanton.

If you want a Short Sale in Dublin, we can find 40. If you want a Foreclosure in Pleasanton we can find 11. If you want a Foreclosure in Blackhawk, we can find 2, sorry. Good luck finding these types of homes in Orinda, Alamo or Diablo, they are near impossible. Flip side, if you want a foreclosure in Antioch, 47% of homes for sale are your choice. So why the drastic change in numbers? Read my post Is Your Home Convenient for some answers.

Buying a Short Sale in Dublin or a Foreclosure in Pleasanton is a lot easier than you think, but buying a Short Sale in Dublin or a Foreclosure in Pleasanton is not as easy as you think?? What, I’m confused too. While many people see buying foreclosures here in our area the thing to do, there are good and bad items to consider when buying a Short Sale in Dublin or a Foreclosure in Pleasanton

Allow me to explain…

Why Buying a Foreclosure in Pleasanton is Easy

• Clean Title (bank paid everything off)
• Good Prices (banks dont like holding homes)
• Easy to See (nobody lives there)

Why Buying a Foreclosure in Pleasanton is Hard

• Need Work (not all, but be prepared) Example 1687 East Gate Way
• Multiple Offers (remember, prices are good)
• No Disclosure (bank doesn’t know what went on in the home)

Why Buying a Short Sale in Dublin is Easy

• Motivation (time frame is short before it goes to foreclosure)
• Pricing (Seller needs to sell before bank steps in)
• Condition is Better (Generally, the sellers are taking care of the home)

Why Buying a Short Sale in Dublin is Hard

• Sloooow Response Time (could be a 3 months plus to get lender approval)
• Multiple Offers (Again motivation sets pricing)
• Foreclosure Hits (if it takes too long, the bank could foreclose while in contract)

Overall, if you know what you are doing then buying a Foreclosure in Pleasanton or Dublin can be a great opportunity. A Short Sale in Dublin could be a great bargain.
