6-18 05 comps Temecula, Murrieta & Lake Elsinore Home Market What does this mean to YOU? 3 straight months of increasing sales = 1 quarter of improvement. One quarter doesn't make a trend by any means, but it's definitely a relief and an improvement from the past 24 months of free falling sales numbers. Now if we can just string together another quarter or two, we won't be out of the woods yet but we'll be headed in the right direction to get out at least. That's the good news. Obviously prices are still dropping but that will continue until our … (0 comments)

Murrieta's sales volume was over 4 times what it was in May 2007 and Temecula nearly doubled. Lake Elsinore had a little dip last month but overall the numbers are very positive and close to 2006 levels.  … (1 comments)

Last night it was my privilege to be able to present 3 more scholarhips to the Nighthawks at Murrieta Valley High School, the high school my children graudated from. I don't know how many were in the graduating class this year but over 250 of them received scholarhips last night from 180 different donors. These were the non-academic scholarhips presented by individuals, trusts and civic groups. These were some outstanding young men and women, the kind that are rarely featured in the media because … (3 comments)

5-29 new home builders As a result of our declining market situation here in Southern California, many new home builders have halted construction or significantly scaled back their operations. They can no longer compete with the inventory of bank owned properties that sold as recently as 18 months ago for $237 + / SqFt and are now selling for $100 or less.

Brown Announces Arrest of Foreclosure Rescue Scam Artists SAN DIEGO--California Attorney General Brown today shut down a team of scam artists that acquired deeds to hundreds of homes in foreclosure by convincing desperate consumers to place their property in a “land grant,” a phony and worthless real estate document. “There hasn’t been a legitimate use of the land grant since the conclusion of the Mexican-American war,” Attorney General Brown said. “If some fast talking scam artist offers a quick escape from foreclosure using archaic documents, be extremely suspicious.” Yesterday, investigators from the San Diego District Attorney’s Office and FBI agents served … (0 comments)
