Looking for Property?

Personal News:

We had a fun outing for Halloween. Johnny dressed up as a Caterpillar, and we went to a 'Trunk or Treat' event sponsored by a local church. He had a great time, playing on the inflatable slide, jump house, and enjoying a puppet show featuring 'The Three Pigs'. As I was heading toward my 46th birthday, I decided it was time to continue on my quest for good health by starting a workout program. I started a 90-day program, called P90X, in mid-August, making the commitment to work at it diligently for 90 days. As I write this, I am at day 83 in the program, and can tell you that my results have been remarkable. If you are interested in learning more, please feel free to contact me.

We'll be traveling to visit family for the Thanksgiving weekend. Our family wishes you and yours a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

Market Update

The inventory of homes active on the market topped 6,500 listings again in October. There have been signs the past few weeks that the market may be showing signs of a recovery. The number of active homes on the market has been declining in the greater Santa Clara County area (Gilroy through Sunnyvale). In the last 3 weeks, the number of active single-family homes on the market has dropped by approximately 3%, while the number of homes in contract (sale pending) has increased by approximately 7%. Condos and townhomes have experienced similar changes, with the active listings dropping over 4%. Based on the fairly consistent market we have been seeing the past 6 months, this could be an indication of a shift in the market.

By the way, did you hear that Donald Trump is heading to Northern California with $100,000,000 to buy homes. There is a saying that goes something like this: 'Follow the big money.' If Donald Trump thinks it's a good time to buy real estate in Northern California, perhaps that is the best 'Buy' signal of all.
