August 2008 Troubled Sellers Update Part I - Atherton to East Palo Alto
The later part of August was quite busy for me again so I didn’t update this blog as much as I would have liked to, but I still managed to gather the data for August’s home sellers in trouble. The general vibe I am getting is that a lot of these troubled homes are being sold recently so the number of active troubled properties seem to be holding still. Anyway, here is the data for Atherton through East Palo Alto
City of Atherton
Atherton currently has no active home sellers in trouble. There are a couple properties that are selling only slightly above their last prices, but they’re not technically in trouble.
City of Belmont
On 8/31 seven properties are in trouble, and one of them is pending. The newest additions are 2002 Forest Ave and 1134 North Ct (this property is pending). Another property of interest at 15 Kittie Ln, as expected, this property came back on the market after being taken off last month.
Raw data available: belmont831.csv
City of Brisbane
Brisbane had a bit of an increase in troubled properties and now the total is 7. The newest troubled listing is a condo at 211 Swallotail Ct, and the property with the largest loss is 45 Lupine Valley Ct with a listing price of $400000 below its last sale price.

City of Burlingame
This month the number of troubled properties rose from 3 to 7 in Burlingame. Several homes over the $1 million mark dropped their prices. The newest price reduction happened to 340 Occidental Ave, and now it is below its 2006 sales price. Additionally, an old favorite at 123 Fey Dr was relisted for $1895000.
Raw data available: burlingame831.csv
City of Colma
Two troubled properties left on B Street! They are 531 B St and 528 B St.
Additionally, 321 Hoffman St was listed in August for more than $130k below its last sale price.
City of Daly City
The number of troubled properties in Daly City is now 187, and that’s a decrease of 1 from last month. Sales data shows that a lot of troubled properties were bought in July and quite a few went for over the asking price. The biggest loser in August by dollar amount is 310 A St.
Anyway, here’s the full data: dalycity831.csv
East Palo Alto
East Palo Alto didn’t receive very many new listings, and additionally a lot of listings went off market. The total number of troubled homes is now 93, and that’s down from 103 since last month. The biggest loser by far is 1175 Cypress St, which is down $401k since its last sale.

July 2008 Troubled Sellers Update Part I - Atherton to Daly City
Well, I have been pretty busy in July so I didn’t post a lot, but this month I will update quite a bit and concentrate on the homes above the $1 million range. One major thing that happened in July was that the damned housing bailout bill passed. Anyway, here is the summary data from July. I’m still compiling some of it so please be patient!
City of Atherton
Atherton is still holding onto 199 Selby Ln. I wonder if the deal actually closed since it still says pending with release.
City of Belmont
On 7/31 only four listings are in trouble, and two of them are already pending. The newest addition is 300 Davey Glen Rd #3622. Another property of interest at 15 Kittie Ln has been withdrawn and now shows a new sale price on June 25th of $772124. That means it probably foreclosed officially and will come back on the market at a lower price.
Raw data available: belmont731.csv
City of Brisbane
This month, there are four condos listing for lower than their last selling price. They are: 632 Callippe Ct, 411 Callippe Ct, 233 Swallowtail Ct, & 115 Elfin Ct #U611
A newly reduced property is at 237 Kings Rd, and it’s now $2000 below its 2006 sale price. This brings the total troubled listings in Brisbane to 5.
City of Burlingame
Once again, we have three properties in Burlingame. The price has been reduced on 840 Newhall Rd in July so now it is at the same price as 2006. 912 Toyon Dr is now pending with release. 1657 Westmoor Rd is still active on the market after 80 days.
City of Colma
Two troubled properties left on B Street! They are 531 B St and 528 B St.
City of Daly City
Almost 50 new troubled listings from Daly City were posted in July. About 30 went off the market so we have a total of 188 listings still on the market. This is a net gain of 26 from last month. Some standouts include 92 Norwood, which is down $298k from its 2007 price, and 61 Chester St, which is somewhat worth buying considered that it’s priced at $149k. I guess when you price it low enough people will buy because 61 Chester St is already pending. It is down from its 2006 price of $360k. Another thing I noticed is that a lot of condos in Crown Colony are selling because they’re being priced under $200k. Considering that renting an one bedroom in Daly City costs anywhere around $1000 to $1400, these condos that are only $160k could actually be cheaper than renting.
Anyway, here’s the full data: dalycity731.csv

June 2008 Update Part 1 - Atherton to Foster City
Well, 2008 is going pretty fast. Today is the last day of June, so I started to compile the listing of troubled sellers again. Today I shall present Part 1.
City of Atherton
Atherton is still holding onto 199 Selby Ln. I am curious to see what the final sales price is on this one.
City of Belmont
On 6/30 I found seven listings in Belmont that are technically in trouble. The newest one of these is 817 Covington.
Raw data available: belmont630.csv
City of Brisbane
Once again there are only three condos that are selling for under their last prices.
They are: 632 Callippe Ct, 233 Swallowtail Ct, & 115 Elfin Ct #U611
City of Burlingame
Burlingame has three troubled properties. They are: 27 Channing Rd, 912 Toyon Dr, and 1657 Westmoor Rd.
City of Colma
Three troubled properties left on B Street! 531 B St, 405 B St, and 528 B St.
City of Daly City
Apparently, I accidentally left out some homes in the last update for Daly City. Also, this month there were almost 40 new troubled listings and a few dozen price reductions. So now the total number of troubled properties in Daly City has grown to 162. Yup, it’s a lot of properties. Only a few properties sold since the last update and I wrote them on the datasheet.
Raw data available: dalycity630.csv
City of East Palo Alto
East Palo Alto is in a similar situation as Daly City. Very few homes are moving and more inventory is piling up. In this update there are 101 listings in trouble. The biggest loser is currently 2362 Poplar Ave, which is listing for $400k below its last sale price.
Raw data available: epa630.csv
City of Foster City
All eight of Foster City’s troubled properties are condos. The newest additions are 1041 Shell Blvd #3 and 1061 Beach Park Blvd #110. The condo on 1061 Beach Park Blvd just had a price reduction today that pushed it into trouble territory. Additionally, Foster City seems to have many properties that are listing 1 to 2% above their last sale price.
Raw data available: fostercity630.csv
Part 2 will be coming soon. In my May update I didn’t include some of the unincorporated areas like La Honda and coastside cities such as Moss Beach. I will add them this time.
