By Keith Kyle One of the questions I'm frequently asked by home buyers is "if the market favors sellers so much, why aren't more people selling their homes?" That's a great question and unfortunately I just don't have a great answer. The theory (and hope if you represent buyers) in our area over the past 2 years is that if values go up high enough sellers will be compelled to list their houses. The problem is we are there....and they're still not putting their homes on the market.  We have exceeded peak prices in our higher end markets such as Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach, yet home inventory is almost non-existant. I realize I'm going to sound like a realtor here, but home sellers.......NOW IS AN IDEAL TIME TO SELL!!!

Santa Claus showed up in Manhattan Village If you happened to be shopping in Manhattan Village, the Mall in Manhattan Beach, you probably noticed that Santa Claus took time off from his busy schedule and has been hanging out for the past few days at the Mall. Those who noticed this decided to have their pictures taken with him. So if you want your picture or your children’s picture taken with Father Christmas make sure you drop in the Mall.

Poinsettias: have pet Toxins according to Veterinarians & the ASPCA Most of us think of Poinsettias as the Christmas Flower. To many nothing says Christmas better than a Poinsettia. If you are a pet owner this beautiful flower should not be in your household. According to the ASPCA and most knowledgeable Veterinarians this Plant is very toxic to your pets. So for many years I have enjoyed poinsettias from a far, or in the Malls during the Holidays. On a side note did you know that this Plant has been around since the Aztecs? The Aztec Kings loved them since it is able to bloom even in higher altitudes. Just does not like the cold. So with that said enjoy this picture which I took in Manhattan Beach at the Manhattan Village Mall. If you are considering buying or selling a home, a luxury...
