Eastvale Property Taxes Going Down         One thing I can be thankful for this Thursday is that property taxes are going down in 11 districts in Eastvale. The Jurupa Community Services District (JCSD) has refinanced over $97 million in the Mello-Roos tax bond and is passing on the savings to the homeowners. The savings amounts to be over $13 million over the life of the loan or $962,000 per year. So when your property tax bill comes in December expect a lower payment to be made. Depending on where you live, the savings will be anywhere from $63 to $342. This is on top of a similar refinancing made in 2013 that resulted in tax savings of $1.86 million or $148,000 per year in 4 districts within Eastvale. JCSD is always looking at the interest rates and refinances when savings can be made...

Safety Video Presented for Corona / Norco Schools         The Corona / Norco school district gets the message across very effectively with this new musical / safety video. The school district wanted to implement a safety program to alert every personnel in case of an emergency.   The video was created to remind school principals to contact the school district in case of emergency. If they aren't contacted, how can they coordinate assistance when help is needed.       If there is an emergency, call 911 first, then call 736-5003 to inform the district of the emergency.         Not hard to get the message from this video. Its a jingle that will hopefully help you remember the number.    youtube video, courtesy Buzz Garwood   In case of emergency, first call 911 , then inform the district b...

California Plastic Bag Ban up for Signature         You will no longer see plastic bags clogging our water ways and at ocean beaches in California which has cost millions of dollars to remove. California passed legislation last Friday in the Senate 22-15 to ban plastic bag use. Plastic bags at the check out line in grocery stores and large pharmacies starting in 2015 and at convenience stores starting in 2016 will be a thing of the past. Gerry Brown's signature is all that is needed for this to take affect.   Typical plastic bag to be banned in California        What will we do without these bags and what will be used instead?      This legislation includes loans that allow bag manufacturers to switch over to the production of paper bags and allows for stores to charge 10 cents for pape...

Eastvale CA - Fitness Centers   Summer is almost over and the holidays will soon be upon us. I am not trying to rush anything. I learned a long time ago that it is important to enjoy everyday as if it where your last.    So what is the point of this blog? Well, in three month we will soon be visiting family and friends that we haven't seen in over a year.

I was a kid for a minute today...Dairyland Park in Eastvale CA   Dairyland Park is one of the two splash parks in Eastvale CA. It is located at 14520 San Remo. The splash park is open during Summer months and one can have loads of fun from 10am till late afternoon.    The Eastvale Team Realty took advantage of this park and enjoyed a couple minutes off their busy schedule to have a small water fight with each other. It was a way to cool off without looking silly in the eyes of wiser and smarter youngsters. Lucky they were all back in school so we didn't have to embarrass anyone...   If you are looking to relocate to Eastvale CA, allow the Eastvale Team Realty to show you how to have fun while looking for a house.     I was a kid for a minute today...Dairyland Park in Eastvale CA

Eastvale CA Housing Market is Healthy     I been asked the question ... how is the market and where do you think it is heading?  I have to disclose first and foremost that I don't have a crystal ball; however, from all the activities that I see during my open houses...the market is healthy and going strong.   I have to admit that June was a slower month, however it seems to have picked up in activity during July and it is continuing during the month of August. One thing I did notice for the month of August, is that prices are leveling off. We are not seeing that much increase in asking price for homes in Eastvale CA. As a matter of fact, just last week, there were 31 homes which decreased their listing price to be more in line with the actual market value of their homes. I always tell m...

 Roosevelt High School Graduation - 2014         Last June, 2014 Roosevelt High School had its graduation ceremony. We attended this event and saw many fireworks, celebration and dancing in the streets as our seniors joyfully graduated. One of the highlights was to see the seniors give a video presentation to briefly talk about their feelings at this time in their lives. Here is a brief video of pictures that were taken and shared on the ERHS home web page. (click here)   Went back to memory lane today ...I got mixed feeling.  It was awesome seeing our middle child graduate, but it soon will be time to part as he starts to set his own footprint in this world.  Oh how I wish I could bottle them up and prevent them from growing...     Roosevelt High School Graduation - 2014
