Average Sales Price for a Plymouth Michigan Home for Sale:Â $210,653
While month over month, the average sales price is down from February’s average of $259,035, there were over twice as many closings in March (17 in February vs 39 in March). The sheer increase in the number of closings could very easily explain the nearly $50,000 drop in average sales price.

In March, 2010 homes in Plymouth Michigan were selling for about 6.6% less than their original list price. Sellers, want to price your home to sell quickly? Settle on a market value price, then reduce it by about 10%. By doing so, you will signal to buyers that you know where the value in this market is and that you are willing to sell your home, not just list it.

Treasury is terrified of a flood of new fslucrooeres. I believe that is why the Treasury issued a directive last week extending the trial modification period to at least the end of January.There are several possible options:More short sales. Short sale activity is already increasing, and the Treasury introduced the Foreclosure Alternatives Program to help with short sales and Deed-in-Lieu of Foreclosure transactions. However servicers are very afraid of short sale fraud (non-arm length transactions), and short sales are also distressed properties pushing down prices something Treasury is desperately trying to avoid.Encouraging servicers to write down principal. This would be very expensive, and if paid for by taxpayers it would be very unpopular because it would appear to favor speculators over the prudent.Converting homeowners to renters. This is something Dean Baker suggested, and is kind of a Single Family Public Housing program. This would avoid the flood of fslucrooeres, and the banks could sell the homes over several years.None of these programs is especially attractive, so I expect more delays and can kicking that will keep fslucrooeres elevated for years. I’ve felt all along that HAMP was just a delaying tactic. By restricting supply, the program has pushed up house prices a little and that has helped the banks raise capital. Now that the capital raises are over, maybe it is time to just accept the consequences and let house prices fall to market clearing levels.-excerpt from HAMP Seen Hurting Housing from Calculated Risk.
