Is it just me or did the month of June go by very quickly?  It seems like I just posted May's numbers a week ago!  I am guessing that July will fly by as well. I was very curious when I ran the numbers for June to see if they looked much different than May.  What I thought was interesting was the increase in the number of townhomes/condos that came on market in June.  Almost three times as many went on the market in June versus May.  The number of single family homes coming on market in June decreased, not sure if there is any trend here but it is still an interesting observation.  More single family homes were sold in June than May and more townhomes/condos were sold in May than June.  In June 2010, 24 single family homes came on the market , 43 homes sold and 26 are pending and the pr... 07/10/2010

Today was the first open house for the new listing at 1963 Rock Street, #12, in Mountain View, CA 94043 It was a beautiful day, and being perched in amidst the treetops was delightful. Imagine my surprise when I looked from one of the decks and saw this sunbather at the pool: In case you missed it, I've cropped the photo below: Yep, it was a mallard duck. He and his partner come this time of year, spend a few weeks or so, then disappear until the next year, so say some of the neighbors I met today. OK, I've got to say it -- it quacked me up (sorry folks) especially when he went into the water to cool off! 06/06/2010
