I actually know several families that live in this neighborhood. It’s not the most ritzy part of San Mateo, but it’s not bad either. It’s close to shopping and the general neighbors are good. I know at least one family that paid over $700k for a smaller house than this one here a couple years ago. So is this a good deal? It really depends. A house like this would rent for $2000 to $2300 a month, though.

I first put this one up over a year ago. Looks like the price has been cut another $75,000 since then. This is still a short sale which means that the troubled sellers are still holding onto the property. Hopefully it will sell soon?

This is a REO listing, but the tax records still say its owner is at 192 Ashland Dr. It seems like the last buyer took two loans from Ameribanc Corp to buy this possibly second home or investment property. 80% was an ARM and 20% was fixed so it was basically a 100% loan. AmeriBanc unceremoniously died last year so I’m not sure who owns this property right now. Anyway,from the pictures it looks like the inside of this property is still intact.

This bank owned property was first purchased in 2002 for $490k with two loans of $392k and $98k. That’s right, that’s equivalent to a 0% down loan. And then in 2004 it was refinanced again with an adjustable loan of $520k and it seems like there was a transfer between family members. And then in 2006 it was refinanced again with two loans of $612,000 and $76,500 for a total of $688,500. So basically this family took out around $200k from this little house during the boom, and finally it went into foreclosure so the last lender is looking around a loss of $280k. It seems like it was a good deal for this particular family because they practically got to live in this house for more than 4 years for free.

This is a large home that’s a short sale. It seems that the previous owners really lucked out because they bought it for $723,000 with a conventional 80% loan and then sold for 1.26 million to the latest owners. I guess there are winners and losers in everything.

Another short sale in South City. This is a fairly new listing and the pictures look decent.
