It is that time of year, November, when we celebrate Thanksgiving.What do we serve on Thanksgiving?We express our gratitude and thankfulness for all the Blessings in our Lives. I am a daughter, sister, aunt, great-aunt, mother, friend, and so much more including an Independent Real Estate Broker, and Certified Probate Real Estate Specialist ("CPRES"), with a full and grateful heart for all the Blessings in my life! ***********Life: I could fill a book diving into life "stories" that fill my heart with gratitude. The more I live, the more I learn that everything is a blessing in one form or another. It may take time to reflect on some life events to realize it as a blessing, yet as I look back on some things (divorce, cancer, job loss) that did not feel like a blessing in the momen... 11/30/2024

Look out for the next media play

By Quincy Virgilio, Real Solutions for your Real Estate Needs

(Coldwell Banker)

I have been spreading the word about the current housing market, mostly that the media has been blasting the airwaves and newspaper with the headlines of gloom and doom. There is so much more behind the headlines that say this is the best time for someone to buy a home. Obviously the news that 98% of home owners are making their mortgage payments on time as agreed would not attract viewers, listeners or readers, or that the average rate of home value apprciation over the last 38 years in Santa Clara County has been 7.75% annually, that too would not make the front page. What is taking place is perception being more pwerful than reality, and our housing market reflects the fear that has been instilled in the minds of our clients and potential homeowners. Now it's starting with the news o... 11/01/2007

Best Time To Prospect!!

By Kevin Gapol

(Golden Star Financing)

Here it is, for those of you new to the industry and need to get out there but always have some kind of excuse. In my office I hear this alot ,''Ah geesn it's 5, everyone is eating right now, I should have gone earlier.''. I hear stuff like that all the time.

Free Real Estate Leads????

By Kevin Gapol

(Golden Star Financing)

So AR has been my home page for almost a year and I finally joined not too long ago. But when I was searching for web leads an AR blog popped up with a link to free leads at www.realestateagentsearch.info. so being brand new to the industry I jump on it with the knowledge that I can cancel it at anytime. It has been awhile since I did it so please forgive me if my prices aren't exact, but I believe I paid $9 for one county which is good for one month and they charge you for 3 months at a time. So i picked 5 county's and if you do the math thats $45 dollars a month times 3 months($135). So then I started to check out the site in detail after I signed up( because you have to sign up first to check these features out) and started to realize that this was CRAP!! Then when I called the numb... 10/22/2007

Knock, Don't ring

By Kevin Gapol

(Golden Star Financing)

Being that I'm new to the Field and the market is slow I feel sometimes that I have to swim upstream. What about the homeowners who need help? How do they feel, uptight or mad because they don't even know were to begin their financial journey. So as a professional I have to take that in. I guess you can say we walk I fine line of love and hate, take the wrong step and your out, but say the perfect word in the best possible way and your drinking a cup of coffee and talking about the kids. You must not only watch what you say but also how you say it. Thats why when I'm in my farm door knocking I choose to do exactly that, KNOCK not RING. Bill collectors, PG&E, and even car repo men/women ring but FRIENDS knock. And in my farm I'm everyone's friend here to help not to force. So newbies Kn... 10/22/2007

Silicon Valley Real Estate Market Update

By Lloyd Binen, Silicon Valley Realtor since 1976; 408-373-4411

(Certified Realty Services)

The dynamics of the Santa Clara County Real Estate market in Fall 2007 are the same as the Summer 07. That is, low-priced, entry-level homes are selling poorly because the liberal financing which fueled that segment of the market since 2001 is no longer available. Mortgage lenders are now returning to “traditional” loan standards which include requiring a cash down payment, verifying borrower’s income and requiring good credit. The result is that the numbers of Santa Clara County buyers and therefore Single Family Residences sales, is lower than it has been for the past 14 years. But, the Median Sales Price of $860,000 is a record high. The Median is not being pulled downward by lower-priced sales. In fact, the average and median statistics mask the real decline in prices of “low... 10/16/2007
