2009 Updates

Buyers and sellers have many considerations as part of the decision-making process during these opportunistic and challenging times. This page is intended to increase your knowledge of current programs and related issues.

The articles listed below cover current federal and state stimulus laws, loan modifications, short sales, foreclosures, tax implications as well as information about condominiums and homeowners associations (HOAs). Specific instances of buyer and seller circumstances should dictate those areas for your review. The source for this information is CAR (California Association of Realtors).

In the documents, there is a reference made to contact CAR for additional information. We as realtors suggest that our clients seek the advice of an attorney, accountant, or other professional as appropriate to address their specific situation or requirements.
