HARP

HAFA
Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives - Provides incentives for homeowners and lenders to complete a short sale - process is becoming more complicated
HAMP, HARP, HAFA, they all sound more like "Don't HAFTA pay the mortgage payment".

Pioneer Village saving a place of Arizona History
Phoenix to bid $3.2 million on Thursday
Pioneer Village a living monument to the faith, foresight, and fortitude of Arizona's Pioneers.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lockett donated a state land lease to the museum. The Locketts were members of a sheep ranching family that had been established in northern Arizona since the early 1880's.
The history of Arizona is represented in all its diversity, from the time of the Spanish Conquistadores to the achievement of Statehood in 1912.
If you haven't had a chance to visit this wonderful place of history, take a day to take a trip back into time. It is amazing to see how the Pioneers lived in the heat of the summer !

Anthem Arizona semi-annual Home Sales 2010
As the number of Short Sale listings increase, the home values for these type of transactions are decreasing area home values. It is great to see the number of traditional sales by property owners netting sales above market value, but those are mainly due to cash buyers.
The record number of foreclosures in the last few months will become a lot of the inventory the second half of this year. Lender owned sales have been steady selling at market value. No huge dips up or down yet. Unlike the downward trend we can see in the short sale transactions compared to 2009.
