Event features affordable home sale
Home shoppers searching for affordable homes will get an opportunity Sunday, Oct. 19 when a select group of mobile homes will go on sale at four different locations.
Called the Mobile Home Extravaganza, 20 homes will hold an open house activity with tours, refreshments, a special prize drawing and offer residences priced from as low as $20,000 to $114,900.
“Too often home shoppers simply give up in their search for property that is reasonably priced in today’s difficult market. But this special Sunday event will make available a wide range of property and some exceptional pricing,” said Kelly Richardson of HomeTown Realtors in Auburn.
The sites include seven homes in Edgewood Mobile Park (11705 Edgewood Road, Auburn), seven homes in Golden Chain Mobile Park (2540 Grass Valley Highway, Auburn), five homes in Woodside Village (12155 Luther Road, Auburn) and one in Nettleton’s Mobile Park (16580 Placer Hills Road, Meadow Vista).

HomeTown introduces The Next Step program
HomeTown Realtors introduced The Next Step, a copyrighted questionnaire designed to clarify and rate a home buyer’s decision-making process at their sixth annual Sales Camp.
Sales Camp is a fun, educational, team building experience where agents develop individual and company-based strategies for the current real estate market.
“Home buyers are fearful today and they need tools to rationally evaluate their buying decisions,” said Sue Thompson, owner of HomeTown Realtors in Auburn. “It is too easy to get swept up in the media frenzy and lose sight of the opportunities that today’s market offers.
“The Next Step helps buyers determine whether to purchase or not. Many buyers are missing out on today’s buying opportunities because they are paralyzed by fear. We want to help buyers sort out the facts and take the next step.”
For more information about the The Next Step, call (530) 888-1248.
