Chico short sale opportunity

I have 2 best buys for today, both in the center of Chico, both in the Avenues area.  One is a foreclosure that just came up on Laburnum for an unbelieveable $141,000! This WILL have multiple offers but even so will be a great buy for someone wanting to live in the popular Avenues (Vencino) neighborhood.  This home should be up on my website later today if you
search with MLS # 200904180

 

The other great opportunity is more for the buyer looking for a project with great location.  Its at 1010  Holben Ave., listed for $299,000 with RV area, pool, over 1800 sq. ft and GREAT close in neighborhood by Butte County library, Hooker Oak school and more! Check it out here with MLS # 200900917

Interest Rates are LOW!

For those of you unaware of keeping track, rates dropped again this week! Below 5% and even on FHA or VA! Check out this article to read further.  Its a great time to be a buyer, more foreclosures are coming down the pike in Chico so if you’re looking for investment property or for your own home check out what’s available.

Reality Show upsets!

O.k. I admit it, I’m a reality show nut! Can’t believe that Shaun Johnson and Chris Allen won their shows! Of course they are both great but way to make great TV!  Shaun did really pull out her best preformance at the end, Chris was just an upset, but loved Idol’s finale!

Goodbye Whiskers

Today’s post is a sad one and not real estate related.  Our cat Whiskers had to go off to kitty heaven today, after hanging around with the Prater’s for 16 years it was time.  He wasn’t a particulary friendly cat, often down right mean and he went through at least 29 lives but it was his time for some rest and to join his brethen for mouse chasing, catnip smelling fun.  I’ll look for a photo of this pound kitty, we got him when Cody, our son, was 5 and Stephanie, our daughter, was 13, and he’s been a Prater ever since.  Good by to Whisk, we miss you already.
