Back on the Market — and Pending Again: What This Wolf Creek Home Teaches Buyers and Sellers
When Real Estate Gets Real: A Wolf Creek Comeback Story
Every now and then, a home reminds us that the Temecula market is full of surprises—and strong opportunities. One of our listings in Wolf Creek went pending fast. During underwriting, a buyer’s previously undisclosed credit issue surfaced and the deal fell apart.
Buyer takeaway: lenders always find out. Transparency isn’t just about honesty—it protects your purchase and avoids heartbreak later.
The Power of Presentation + Pricing
The good news? The home came back on the market, appraised at $1.4M and listed at $1.35M—offering clear, built-in value to the next buyer. It went pending again within days. Even in a shifting market, well-prepared Temecula homes are still moving fast.
Lessons for Buyers
- Be transparent with your lender from day one.
- Disclose credit events (foreclosure, short sale, late pays). Solutions exist when we plan early.
- Get pre-approved with a team that understands both mortgage structure and real estate timelines.
As a dual real estate and mortgage broker, I see both sides and keep your deal strong from offer to closing.
Lessons for Sellers
- Thoughtful pricing and presentation still generate strong offers.
- Local demand from San Diego and Orange County buyers remains active.
- Even after a fallout, this Wolf Creek property went under contract again in days—serious buyers are out there.
