Ruby Hill Statistics:

As of April 6, 2010, there were 25 active listings in Ruby Hill Pleasanton in the price range of $969,000-8,888,868.  Two of them were short sales and the rest were regular sales.

For borrowers that have stable incomes, good credit history, and FICO scores of at least 620, now is an opportune time to purchase a home in spite of the market challenges they may have to overcome.

  • Although home prices have stopped declining in most East Bay areas, and even have risen in some markets like Pleasanton, Dublin, San Ramon and Fremont, mortgage rates may rise, offsetting any potential savings in price. The CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® (C.A.R.) projects rates on 30-year fixed-rate mortgages to average 5.6 percent this year.
  • The high end of the market didn’t experience the same price appreciation as the low end. Home prices in this segment have not declined as steeply as homes in the mid- to low-end of the market either.  Many sellers in the high end who do not have to sell their homes are choosing to wait until home prices rise before putting their homes on the market.
  • Another challenge the high end market is facing is with buyers qualifying for financing.  Many lenders are requiring borrowers to provide proof of income, such as W-2s and recent paystubs, as well as demonstrate their ability to meet the monthly mortgage obligation.

Dublin and Pleasanton both have good schools, but if you are looking for the better of the two, based on the Great Schools score, Pleasanton is better than Dublin.

Is it the right time to buy a home in Ruby Hill, Pleasanton, California?

Ruby Hill home

Ruby Hill home prices too have made an adjustment just as all of California. For example, homes that were selling for $2.5 Million are now selling less than 2 million. Interest rates are still very low. I would say it is a great time to buy in Ruby Hill.

As of July 7, 2009, there were 36 active listings in Ruby Hills. What that means is that buyers have a huge selection of homes ranging from $969,000-$10,000,000.

The Real Estate activity has always been good in Ruby Hill, Pleasanton. There are 6 pending listings and 17 homes have closed escrow since January 1, 2009. These numbers may not seem to be too high, however upper end properties have a limited pool of buyers, therefore they take longer to sell.

The sold numbers were about the same from January- July 2008 and from July-December 2008. In other words, the activity in Ruby Hill has been the same for a long time in spite of the market conditions. There were only 2 short sales and 2 REO (foreclosure) properties in the last six months.

Ask yourself these questions:

Would buying a home in Ruby Hill mean stretching your financial limits? Will you still have enough left over for unexpected emergencies? What can you afford comfortably?

When pre qualifying you for a loan, lenders look for three main areas: income and expenses, credit score, down payment including closing costs.

As a general rule, your credit score should be above 700 to get a good interest rate on a conventional loan in Ruby Hill. You should also be looking at having at least 30% for a down payment.

As far as financial benefits of homeownership in Ruby Hill are concerned, tax advantages are one of the biggest financial benefits of homeownership. As a general rule, most homeowners can deduct most or all of their interest payments on their home loan, property taxes and loan points, but check with your tax advisor to be sure. As you know Ruby Hill has so much to offer with the exclusive estate homes, the beautiful Golf Course, the club house, best Pleasanton schools, the Pleasanton and Livermore wineries and close proximity to downtown and major freeways.

Now you tell me…. Is it the right time for You?

What is the tax credit for first time home buyers in the stimulus package?

Red carpet

To be eligible for the $8,000 tax credit, a first-time homebuyer must purchase a principal residence from January 1, 2009 to November 30, 2009. The deadline is November 30, 2009, and not December 31, 2009 According to an IRS announcement on February 25, 2009, first-time homebuyers who qualify for the $8,000 tax credit by purchasing a home before December 1, 2009 have a special option of claiming the tax credit on either their 2008 or 2009 tax returns The maximum tax credit for an individual first-time homebuyer is 10 percent of the purchase price, not to exceed $8,000. For married individuals filing separate tax returns, the tax credit is capped at $4,000. Both spouses must be “first-time homebuyers”. The first-time homebuyer tax credit may be restricted by the taxpayer’s income. The tax credit starts to phase out for an individual taxpayer with a modified adjusted gross income from $75,001 to $95,000 (or $150,001 to $170,000 for joint filers).
