tiburon: Sausalito, California circa 1864 - 05/06/08 10:43 AM
Special thanks to Alberto Pinto for providing this photo of downtown Sausalito in 1864. Off to the left of the man standing in the foreground is a sign that reads, "Walk Your Horses."

It's not that simple anymore...the seller's market in Marin County peaked in July and August of 2005. In the past year we've seen declining property values in some areas of Novato and San Rafael. Southern Marin and the high end of this market are carrying the rest of the County by stabilizing the "median price" for sales price but sales volume are down.

tiburon: How to lower your Property Taxes in Marin County, California ! - 04/05/08 11:04 AM
The slump in Marin County home sales has resulted in an increase of homeowners requesting the County Tax Assessor to reduce their property taxes. Joan Thayer, the County Assessor-Recorder, reported that her office has already received 150 requests this year up from 90 requests in 2006. Thayer says, "the increase in request is a reflection of a sharp drop in local real estate sales and a leveling of Marin home prices. And, the County is required to reduce the tax value of property when it finds instances where declines have occurred." Thayer also said, "likely candidates would be those homes … (0 comments)

tiburon: Window of Opportunity in Marin County Real Estate - 03/08/08 09:24 AM
The Government just announced that it will temporarily increase limits on conforming loans from $417,000 to as high as $729,000. Marin County and thirteen other counties in California qualified.

The Government is expected to be working out new underwriting standards and plans to offer these new loans soon. This is part of the Governments economic stimulus package approved earlier this year calling for temporary increases on loan limits to allow troubled borrowers to refinance out of sub-prime loans and make it easier for many new buyers … (0 comments)

tiburon: Using Monthly Median Price For Assessing Marin County Real Estate is Absurd! - 12/01/07 12:09 PM
The top headline in the November 16, 2007 Marin Independent Journal "Median Leaps to $978,000" is not only misleading, but it borders on irresponsisble jounalism. The problem lies in the statistics, and how they are misinterpreted by the media and public. According to the Marin County Assessor, there are 61,500 detached single family homes and 13, 259 condo/townhouses in Marin. This is the "population" used for the statistics. These residences range from one bedroom condos to large estates. The statistical problem with this population is that it is highly non-homogeneous. Each month, only a very small percentage of these homes … (3 comments)

tiburon: Marin County Beaches following oil spill in San Francisco Bay - 11/17/07 12:02 PM
November 15, 2007 Ever since the oil spill that took place on November 7, 2007 the bay,local ocean waters, and surrounding coastlines have been contaminated. All the public beaches in Marin County are now closed, and it may be weeks before they are reopened. The cleanup of the San Francisco Bay oil spill has settled into what is expected to be weeks long slog of mopping off rocks, beaches and birds, as authorities subpoenaed the crew of the ship, the Cosco Busan, that spewed the fuel. What happened? Wednesday morning the container ship rammed the base of the Bay Bridge tower, and dumped 58,000 gallons of heavy fuel … (5 comments)

According to economist Leslie Appleton-Young Marin County Real Estate is holding it's own!
A prominent real-estate economist predicts that troubles will persist in the California housing sector throughout the year, but she said Marin's unique market is weathering the downturn better than other areas.
"It's God's country, what can I say," Leslie Appleton-Young, chief economist for the California Association of Realtors, told an audience of agents Tuesday in Terra Linda. "When is the 30 percent decline in Marin County's market going to happen? Not in my lifetime."
Appleton-Young, while expecting a continuing contraction through 2007, said the brunt … (0 comments)

tiburon: Your "Borrowed Views" may be changing....welcome to Tiburon and Belvedere, California! - 06/19/07 12:14 PM
On June 18, 2007 the Marin Independent Journal reported that Belvedere resident Robert Bernheim is appealing before the Belvedere City Council and Planning Commission, with several neighbors, to protest the new construction where steel columns and platforms have unexpectedly jutted into their views. Belvedere City Manager George Rodericks said the issue with the construction project is that, "the neighbors should have been more aware of what that structure was going to be."
The IJ also reports that, "the latest view snafu follows other view related discussions in nearby Tiburon over the past view months, including the term "borrowed views" (sight lines that … (0 comments)

tiburon: Marin Real Estate featuring Towns, Cities, and Communities (w/web sites!) - 06/14/07 10:15 AM
SAUSALITO For many tourist who visit the Bay Area, Sausalito is the only part of Marin County they see or know. In some respects, that isn't so bad because the harbor village has always been a place that is beautiful and bodacious. Sausalito's beauty is easy to catalog. The tree covered hillsides cascade down to a bayside town that reminds strollers of the French or Italian Riviera. The views from Sausalito are nothing but breathtaking - from the Bay Bridge, the San Francisco skyline, to the Golden Gate Bridge. Don't forget Sausalito's saucy history. Bootleggers, bordellos, gambling dens, and eccentric houseboats. All combined to … (2 comments)
