South Tahoe Real Estate in October

The South Lake Tahoe real estate market typically begins to slow down in the late fall and into the winter. There has been a trend of slowing sales, but buyer activity is still quite active for this time of year. There were 45 houses sold in October on the South Lake Tahoe MLS. Although the number of sales is down from 61 in August, it is not far off from the 53 houses that sold in July.

Distress sales accounted for 15 of the 45 houses that were sold. 5 of the distress sales were short sales and 10 were bank owned foreclosures. The bank owned foreclosures that sold in October sold for a very low price per square foot of $154. With the exception of two newer foreclosures, the bank owned properties that sold in October were in poor condition and needed work..
