With the all the soldiers coming to Fort Carson housing will be a big concern for many. If your PCSing to Fort Carson and going to be looking for a home near Fort Carson you will come across many homes in the Fountain and Colorado Springs area that are short sales. A short sale is a home about to go into foreclosure but the lender has agreed to accept less than what’s owed on the home. Short  sales can be a great deals but let me caution you I’ve seen them take anywhere from a  month to 5 1/2 months to close and only 60% close.  If you need a home now a short sale may not be the best way to go but if you can wait it out and know there’s a chance you may not get the home then go for it.  One other thing with the influx of soldiers homes priced in the $100,000 to $200,000 will be brisk. If you find a home you like don’t wait as it may not be there when you finally decide to make an offer.
