I'm local to Eagle Rock...after all I grew up there! For those of you not familiar with the area, Eagle Rock is part of North East Los Angeles (speaking of which, if you want to get familiar with North East Los Angeles, you can visit NELALive.net; I'm a contributing editor there). The picture on your right is that of the rock the community was named after. It was previously known as La Piedra Gorda (which means Fat Rock in English) and was an early tourist attraction here in Los Angeles. Even the former Director of the Southwest Museum said it's..."the most distinctive natural landmark in the City of Los Angeles."I know we work hard and drive to and from work in a hurry...but the next time you're on the 134 freeway headed towards Pasadena, look to your left and admire this little piece...

Eagle Rock Music Festival 2007 featured an outstanding musical lineup of rock, jazz, hip-hop, salsa, international and latin bands.Here Tom, Mike and Bob talk to a vistor at our booth  Mime Mark Wenzel, an Eagle Rock resident, strolled the Boulevard in his Professor Weasley persona, intriguing people with his theremin.    Capoeira  is an amazing blend of martial arts and dance, set to an commanding rhythm.  You can sense the energy as the crowd takes up the chant.  Be forgiving of this videographer -- I was squeezing through the crowd from about 8 people back.

I've mentioned before how much I love the old  Eagle Rock Branch library.  I mentioned the pictures in my mind of the way books were arranged on the low shelves in the children's section, the light streaming in through the high windows. The library was closed in 1971 due to earthquake damage, however, thanks to the dedicated efforts of preservationists and community members, the building was saved and renovated and reopened in 1997 as the Eagle Rock Community Cultural Center.Last night, I had the pleasure of visiting the old library building for an Eagle Rock Music Festival sponsor party, and I wanted to share a couple photos I snapped of the building's interior.  I think you can see why it is so well loved by the community.

It is believed that early day Native American Tongva living in the area and coming upon this distinctive sandstone rock formation, very fittingly bestowed the title of the "Eagle Rock," which in actual fact does bear a striking resemblance to the head and wings of an eagle in flight. The Eagle Rock is a huge "conglomerate" or "puddingstone". Twelve million years ago there were hot springs just north of the rock. Lime from the springs cemented thousands of field stones and boulders together to form this one great rock. Near the top of the rock, erosion has formed an overhang which when viewed around the noon hour casts the shadow of a spread eagle.Continue reading at NELALive.net.....

Designating the Escrow HolderThe escrow holder may be any disinterested third party and the choice of an escrow agent is always that of the buyer, seller, or the lender. However, they probably do not have a relationship  with an escrow agent, and may rely on the advice of their real estate professional. Basic Requirements for a Valid EscrowEvery sale or transfer (refinance)  has two basic requirements to be valid :(1) a binding contract between the lender, buyer and seller(2) conditional delivery of transfer documents to a thrid partyThe binding contract can be an offer to purchase (deposit receipt), agreement of sale, exchange agreement, option or mutual escrow instructions to the lender, buyer, or seller.  Eddy MartinezBest Rate Funding - Direct Lender - Wholesale RatesSenior Loan Con...

The housing market is shaped mainly by the inventory of available housing, by housing affordability and by the present interest rates on mortgages. California`s inventory of housing units is not enough to meet the demand because our population increases faster than our supply of housing. Nearly 250,000 new households are formed every year and about 190,000 new housing units are are bulit ---- creating a shortfall of about 60,000 units. With a shortage of housing, there is a extreme demand. The next thing to look at is the affordability index. The affordability index shows how many households will be able to afford a median-priced home in California. As the affordability index gets lower it means that fewer households will be able to buy a home. For example, if the affordability index fa...
