Others may just want to try a new and better location while others transfer because of better opportunities offered by the new location.  Whatever the reasons of these people are, the reason many people would prefer to be moved to Springville, Utah remains to be the same.

Although it may appear that moving to Springville or to any new place is so easy, most people are actually in a dilemma of how and where to start.  Some transfers are so sudden; leaving more tension and confusion that may eventually lead to wrong decisions.  Transferring to another place requires so many preparations and not all people are used to working on all forms of documents and processes in order to have a smooth relocation.  Most will actually receive advice from friends and relatives on how to cope and find a new home.  Sometimes, the people giving advice only intensify the burden of moving to another place.  If you are in the same situation, check out these simple steps on how to manage relocating.

I visited the model home at 881 North 400 East – Springville, UT 84663 a few days ago.  I was impressed with the nice floor plan and abundance of upgrades.  I am very keen at noticing the details of a home.  I noticed the tile work was perfect.  Also, the banisters and railing were solid.  These homes are build with exceptional detail.  If you are in the area it is worth taking a minute and walking thru the model.  In my opinion these homes are not only built well and loaded with amenities but located in an absolutely beautiful setting.  They are situated in their own private part of Springville.  My parents are currently serving a mission in Tallahassee Florida and have recently retired.  Once their mission is complete I am going to suggest they come and take a look at the Garden Homes of Mill Pond.

Bank Foreclosures have been slightly declining in Springville UT. Short Sales in Springville UT have been fairly constant over the past year and hover around 25% of the real estate market. 163 home owners are selling their homes in Springville on 12/31/2011. The number of short sales has climbed to 45 and the number of bank foreclosures dropped to 6 homes for sale. Springville currently only has no HUD home for sale at the moment. If you would like to see any short sales, bank foreclosures or HUD homes in Springville Utah contact Paul Teasdale with Team Teasdale Realty.

I would like to point out the populations of each city. Springville Utah has a population of around 30,000 and Spanish Fork Utah has a population of around 33,000.  Mapleton Utah has a population of 8,000. Springville has 212 homes for sale and Spanish Fork has 311 homes for sale. Spanish Fork has 99 more homes for sale than Springville or about 31% more homes for sale. The number of Bank Foreclosures in Spanish Fork have been in decline. This is a very interesting statistic. I think this is because of the amount of homes, condos and twin homes that were built in the 2003-2007 era. Spanish Fork has almost double the amount of short sales for sale. See the graphs below.

The real estate market in Mapleton is much more stable than both the surrounding cities of Spanish Fork or Springville. If you are looking to buy or sell a home in Springville, Spanish Fork or Mapleton call me. I have been selling homes in this are since 1995 full time and live right here in Mapleton.

Springville, Utah is experiencing a record high of 28% bank foreclosures sold in 2011.  What the heck is going on in Springville?  We are leading Utah County in Bank Foreclosures. I am disappointed to discover this fact while researching bank foreclosed homes in Utah County this morning.

Springville Utah had 328 homes, condos, townhomes and twinhomes SOLD in 2011.  These homes consisted of Bank Foreclosures, Short Sales, HUD Homes, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Homes.  The 328 homes sold included the typical residential seller in Springville that was not experiencing a distressed situation.  91 of the homes sold were bank foreclosures.  Approximately, 25% of the homes sold in Springville were short sales in 2011.  Team Teasdale Realty sold several short sales and bank foreclosures in Springville, Utah.

I have crunched some numbers to see how the bank foreclosures in Utah County compare to one another.  The most stable city is Orem and the least stable is Springville.  Provo is relatively stable compared to the other cities in Utah County.  Saratoga Springs and Eagle Mountain had a higher percentage of bank foreclosures.

springville-utah-bank-foreclosures

21% of the homes sold in Orem, Utah in 2011 were bank foreclosures.
22% of the homes sold in Lehi, Utah in 2011 were bank foreclosures.
22% of the homes sold in Provo, Utah in 2011 were bank foreclosures.
23% of the homes sold in Mapleton, Utah in 2011 were bank foreclosures.
24% of the homes sold in Spanish Fork, Utah in 2011 were bank foreclosures.
28% of the homes sold in Springville, Utah in 2011 were bank foreclosures.

It is hard to imagine that MORE than half of the homes sold in Springville, Utah were either bank foreclosures and short sales.  The amount of bank foreclosures and shorts sales will continue into 2012.  In speaking with many of the Realtors that represent the banks in Utah County they have made it clear the inventory will continue to climb.

If the supply of bank foreclosures and short sales continue to climb into 2012 then prices will also decline.  I think the prices will either stabilize or go down around 2% in Springville UT in 2012. Prices will certainly not go up.  However, the interests rates are awesome at around 4%.  It still makes sense to buy a home in Springville even if prices slightly fall.  Prices have been falling for five years and catching the exact bottom will be very difficult.

18% of the Homes for Sale in Springville are Short Sales

Short Sales in Springville Utah are actually in decline.  The amount of short sales in Springville was in fact much higher a few years ago.  We had many high end homes that fell into short sale during the economic recession.  These homes have now sold and the amount of short sales has slowed down.  Currently we have 222 homes for sale and 41 of those homes in Springville are short sales.  This equates to 18% of the Real Estate Market in Springville.

The challenge for many buyers is being able to recognize the unapproved and approved short sales.  When you hire Paul Teasdale of Team Teasdale Realty he will help you know when to make an offer on a short sale and when you shouldn’t.  Paul has been negotiating on short sales in Springville for about 12 years.  It is important to get a first position when trying to buy a short sale.

Many buyer and Realtor don’t understand some of the danger of trying to buy a short sale.  Here are just two things that will make it difficult or impossible to buy a short sale:

Many Realtors attempt to move forward on a Short Sale even when the seller has filed for bankruptcy.  A buyer should pass on any homes where a seller has filed for bankruptcy.  The home often gets brought into the bankruptcy making it unbuyable.  A buyer will need to wait for it to show up as a bank foreclosure down the road.

If you are considering a Short Sale on Your Springville Home call Paul.  We care about your situation and will use our experience to help you.  We will give solid sound real estate advice.

If you are looking to buy a short sale in Springville and would like to hire an excellent Realtor call Paul.  All short sales in Springville are not what they appear.  They are like a used car.  You need to look under the hood and do and inspection on the current true status of the short sale before seeing the home.
