Why Sit On The Fence…????

Wednesday, July 13th, 2011

Why not live in your own home? Why this is the right time to buy a home on the Monterey Peninsula; Pacific Grove, Monterey,Carmel, Carmel Valley or Pebble Beach.

1) Homes are more affordable. Prices have come down anywhere between 28%-45%

2) Rates are historically low. We keep hearing about how rates will start creeping up, but so far..not really. I have a quote in front of me for 30 year fixed conforming, no points 4.625%. Not bad.

3) Timing is right. The conforming loan limits will be reduced on Oct.1, 2011. This will reduce both the affordability and availability of many home buyers.

4) Homeownership is still the American Dream for nearly 9 out of 10 Americans.

5) Financing IS available for buyers with stated income, at least 3.5% down payment and a good credit score

Best Coffee Shops in Pacific Grove

Monday, June 6th, 2011

One of the first questions I get when clients or friends and family visit Pacific Grove is where to find the best coffee shops. Well, of course people  have  different tastes ;-) . Here are my favorites:

The Works, 667 Lighthouse, for best chai, best latte, drip coffee and place to meet your friends. B’s Coffee House, Country Club Gate, for strongest cup of coffee. Juice and Java, 599 Lighthouse,  for best smoothies. Lighthouse Coffee Co, 570 Lighthouse, for best mini biscotti’s.

Let me know if you have any other suggestions, in the meantime enjoy!

“In the News — Water…..”

Sunday, April 3rd, 2011

Here’s what Coldwell Banker has learned in the past few days from the Monterey Water Management District and  Cal-Am Water Co.:

1) There are still many unresolved issues concerning the issuance of water permits within the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District and with Cal-Am, who issues most of their water meters. In appr. 45 days (mid-May) there will be a joint meeting session between the California Water Resources Agency, Cal-Am and MPWMD to try to iron out many of these controversies

2) The MPWMD has posted, on their website, certain projects or areas that they feel will be exempt from any water moratorium.  http://www.mpwmd.dst.ca.us/

I advise you to check out the website to what it means to you and your property in Pacific Grove or Monterey.
