The South Bay has certainly discovered the little town of Hollister just minutes to the south. Being able to enjoy the outdoors, quaint shops, and small town people is what living in Hollister is all about. After a few visits, many people begin to look at homes for sale by surfing the web, or by simply calling up their favorite realtor to see what’s available.
Lately, what is “available” has been astounding, and there are a lot of different options to choose from. There are foreclosures, new homes, private party homes, and the option to build your own home.
With the slough of foreclosed homes on the market, people are picking up their dream homes at incredibly low prices. Prices in Hollister are at about 45% of what they were in August 2005 when the real estate market hit an all time high. A drive through some of the nicest neighborhoods will show a number of foreclosed homes to choose from. However, Hollister foreclosures are not the only homes out there. There are actually new homes being built again. That’s right, new homes in Hollister are being built right now. And, the prices are surprisingly affordable. One large developer has started building new homes on lots in the sunny southeast area.
If looking for a new home, but not willing to go with a pre-determined floor-plan, another option you might want to consider is building your own home. This option however, is not for the faint of heart. There are a number of important considerations if you choose to go that route. Building a home is no small task, and some homework is in order.
Whether you are looking at buying an existing home (foreclosure, short sale, private party, auction homes, etc.) or are entertaining the thought of a new home, or building your own home, be sure to take a drive to the south just 30 minutes or so, to visit Hollister. Hollister CA homes for sale may include something that you’ll love.
