July South Lake Tahoe Real Estate Statistics
The number of single family homes that sold in July fell to 31 from the 53 that sold in June. One reason for the decline in home sales could have been the expiration of the first time home buyer tax credit that had expired on June 30. Out of the 31 homes that were reported as sold on the South Lake Tahoe mls, 6 were bank owned foreclosures and 7 were short sales. That puts the percentage of distress sales at 42% for the month of July.
