My children and their friends have always loved Halloween in Carmel Valley.  They especially like the fact that every neighborhood has loads of opportunities for treats!  In addition to "walking the neighborhoods", here are some other places to have fun with your children this Halloween! Halloween Scream Zone

The Haunted Birch Aquarium, aimed at kids 13 and under, is on October 24, 25 and 26 from 6:00 to 9:00 PM.  This should be lots of fun for the little ones and not too scary!

The teens will especially like the Scream Zone at the Del Mar Fairgrounds which is open nightly, through Saturday, Nov. 1. My daughter just went last weekend and actually left part way through... very scary and she hates clowns who chase people while waving heads without torsos!

There is also the Haunted Hotel downtown and the Haunted Trail in Balboa Park, also through Nov. 1. We haven't tried these, but definitely on our list.  Let me know how you like them!

I am a Coldwell Banker real estate agent and today our company announced that Realogy (our parent company) has approached the U.S. Department of Treasury with the call to lower rates from 4.5% or lower on 30 year fixed rates mortgages.

"There are millions of credit-worthy people ready to jump back into the housing market, but they need to be motivated," said Realogy President and CEO Richard A. Smith. "In our view, the incentive of substantially lower mortgage rates would directly stimulate the housing market - both in sales volume and price - and thus accelerate the overall U.S. economic recovery."

Realogy's proposal calls for a short-term government buy-down of mortgage rates to at least 4.5%, or lower, for a 30-year fixed rate mortgage (down from current rates of approximately 6.04%). This homebuyer incentive would apply to the purchase of all new and/or existing homes sold up to $1 million in price.

Here are the key findings from the Realogy broker survey:

  • 95% of brokers said they would expect an increase in home sales if 30-year conforming fixed-rate mortgages were available at 4.5% rates today.
  • Most notably, 54% of all responding brokers said the impact of a 4.5% mortgage rate would significantly increase home sales in their markets.
  • Of the brokers who answered that rates would increase, nearly half (46%) indicated that they would anticipate unit sales levels to increase between 10% to 25% if 4.5% mortgage rates were available today.  

The majority of brokers also agreed that substantially lower mortgage rates would have a strong stabilizing impact on average home sales prices.

  • 51% of brokers felt home prices would increase somewhat and 38% felt home prices would stay the same.
  • Of the brokers who felt prices would increase or significantly increase due to 4.5% mortgage rates, 22% felt the home price increases would be in the 3% to 5% range and 13% felt it would be in the 5% to 7.5% range.
