coachella valley: Is this a sign that the worst is over in the California housing market?
- 04/28/10 05:02 AM
For 3 months in a row , Californias total housing starts are up. What this means to us as California residents is that building permits for new homes is no longer standing stagnant. With a 45% increase in San Bernardino and Riverside counties permit activity it is a good sign that times are moving forward not backward.
Is this a sign that the worst is over in the housing market? Obviously, we did not fall upon the crashing market overnight, so time is key. It will take time to recover, recoop and move forward. The good news is we are seeing … (2 comments)

coachella valley: Real Estate is like the weather
- 02/05/10 04:02 AM
As I was reading posts from friends on Facebook this morning, it made me really grateful for where I live in La Quinta, Ca. As I looked through pictures of snow covered driveways, snow blowers and people bundled up like Eskimos i looked outside and thought wow am I lucky. For so many people around the nation, now is the slow time for Real Estate.

coachella valley: Where we stand -Shakey ground or solid footing- Coachella Valley sees signs of both
- 10/28/09 05:21 AM
Mountains may shelter the Coachella Valley from undesirable weather patterns that affect those beyond the desert, but could protect us from the economy. Despite its resort lifestyle, the desert has felt the pain of the past 18 months.

- 10/26/09 03:28 AM
I was amazed when i attended this informational Summit on the Coachella Valley in Indian Wells, Ca.
