 Some of San Rafael’s senior residents will verify that The Reader’s Digest was once flat-out the most popular magazine in the country. I don’t know how far back that began, but at one point at least, it was the time-saving way Americans kept up with what was being published in the other magazines (there were lots of them). RD boiled lengthy articles down to a couple of pages.TV is probably what spelled its decline. The internet almost finished the job—but the Digest is still going in various forms. When you come across it online, it never fails to show a whole lineup of almost irresistible Click Me sidebars. Last week, for instance, Marin homeowners might have been snared by “20 Secret Hiding Places for Valuables in Your Home” (if your home will host an open house anytime soon, that on... 06/27/2016

 This will be a heads-up for San Rafael residents who may be applying for a home loan in the future: there are some major adjustments underway that could affect their eligibility. It hasn’t been talked about much—possibly because most peoples’ eyes tend to glaze over when the topic of loan analysis is raised. But the more local mortgage applicants know about how lenders decide which loans to grant and on what terms, the better the odds of getting a green light. Briefly, here’s what is coming:Starting on the 13th of June, the way Fannie Mae (FNMA) goes about assessing creditworthiness will change. FNMA is the government-backed outfit that buys up private lenders’ home loans once they have been made. That insures that the lenders continue to have a steady supply of cash with which to fund... 06/13/2016

          One way or another, it’s all connected.Last week ended with what some observers justifiably called a “shocking” development—one that could impact San Rafael’s home buyers and sellers measurably—at least in the short run. It came with the release of the employment statistics from the Department of Labor. They weren’t good numbers. But the surprisingly weak report might be good news for some home buyers, since it could well affect affordability. As I said, it’s all connected.“Affordability” is the index that seeks to summarize in a single number whether or not a typical family would qualify for a mortgage under current economic conditions. When a homeowner in San Rafael is looking at the state of the market, it’s not a bad indicator for explaining why sales might be rising or fa... 06/06/2016

Monday’s Memorial Day in Marin County capped a weekend that definitely felt like summer was close at hand. Actual summer may not arrive in San Rafael until the summer solstice on June 20, but especially in years like this one, when Monday’s holiday is also just two days removed from the start of hurricane season, it’s clearly time to check whether there are any charcoal briquettes left over from last year.The Atlantic hurricane season officially starts on June 1 because, logically, that’s about when the storms out there in the mid-Atlantic begin to get serious. Technically, between June 1 and November 30, 97% of Atlantic tropical cyclone activity occurs, so June 1 has every reason to lay claim to honor of being the starting block. Besides, as one meteorologist admitted, June 1 is easy t... 05/30/2016

The headline had to stop everyone who even glanced at Bloomberg’s Technology section: San Rafael readers (even those who are relatively gimmick-immune) would have been hard pressed to pass up last Wednesday’s Bloomberg Technology headline: “Can This Real Estate Gimmick Save the World?”Whether the subject of the article really is a gimmick or “the greatest real estate amenity since running water” is yet to be determined—but it’s certainly, at the very least, an intriguing idea. Steve Wynn is intrigued. He’s tearing up the golf course behind his Las Vegas Strip hotels to replace it with an installation. And with 60 of them already in place (and 250 on the drawing board), if it’s a gimmick, it’s one that’s making a large splash beyond the real estate world.The core of the idea is the creat... 05/16/2016
