Versailles needs a buyer who is looking for a pad bigger than the White House.

Daily Real Estate News |      Tuesday, April 10, 2012    

America’s largest house, at 90,000 square feet, is up for sale for $65 million in Windermere, Fla., but the home is only about 60 percent complete. The residence was originally listed last year for $75 million and recently has been reduced to $65 million.

The home’s owner, David Siegel — the founder of Westgate Resorts — had stopped construction three years ago on the home after the financial crisis dampened his time-share business.

Bank of America, which holds the mortgage, reportedly has threatened to foreclose on the home. Siegel has invested $50 million in the home so far and vows to finish it.

"Buyer Ready" Home Shoppers Have Edge as Brokers Report Rise in Multiple Offers

KIRKLAND, Wash. (April 5, 2012) – The housing market in the Puget Sound region is pointing toward a sustainable recovery, according to several brokers who commented on the March activity report from Northwest Multiple Listing Service.

MLS Members reported 9,126 pending sales during March, a year-over-year increase of nearly 21 percent. That total surpassed the previous month by 1,503 transactions (up 19.7 percent). Coupled with shrinking inventory, attractive financing, and rising consumer confidence, the market is becoming more balanced, and even being described by some brokers as "frenzied." Other brokers commented on the "remarkable opportunities for…

Homes have been selling at the best pace in almost 5 years! Just in the past two weeks we have had four homes sell in only 1 day on market, others in less than a week, and even had one property recieve 13 offers in one weekend..... But these good times for sellers may be short lived....

Experts Warn: It’s Coming ... The signs of the next tide are already taking shape as banks set out to quicken the pace of reviewing backlogs of defaulting loans: Foreclosure starts soared 28 percent in January, according to Lender Processing Services’ report last month. RealtyTrac reported that while overall foreclosures saw a slight drop nationwide in February from January, 21 cities saw large spikes, such as Tampa (increasing 64 percent), Chicago (43 percent) and Miami…

It's not easy being a home seller in this market. It's even harder for first-time sellers.

Selling a home is one of the biggest financial transactions most people ever do in their lives. And the current real estate market, still plagued with a record number of foreclosures and short sales, can be a challenge for anyone.

"This is a unique market," says Walter Molony, senior public affairs specialist at the National Association of Realtors (NAR). "The real estate market is cyclical in nature, but we've never had an amplification like we've seen in this market. The boom and bust cycle is taking much longer to recover from, although we're beyond the midway point in the recovery."
