  East Bay Mortgage & Market Update for April 8th 2011 Economic News: A very quiet week on the economic front is coming to a close. Jobless Claims were reported yesterday better than expected. The four week moving average also continued the downward trend. The employment market has been moving in a positive direction and at this point it is unknown when/if the disruptions in the Japanese supply chain will have any negative consequences for the jobs recovery. Crude Oil has marched higher this week and is currently trading at $112.68 per barrel. Next week’s calendar is full of data so we could see a trend developing in the near term direction of interest rates. Mortgage Markets: The Treasury and Mortgage Backed Securities markets are losing ground and interest rates are moving up slightly...

Can You Work with My GREEN Walls?  Home Staging TRANSFORMS a Living Room & Dining Room WITH Green Walls!!   Working with many sellers in the East Bay I discuss with them the options of how BEST to STAGE & showcase their home.  It is a balancing effort to ensure that the $$$ is spent in a way to maximize the selling price. This Walnut Creek family home is such an example.  The Options were: Paint the Living & Dining Rooms and Stage with the sellers furnishings.....OR Work with the Green Walls, move out the sellers furnishings and STAGE for an updated contemporary look and feel that will appeal to todays buyers. The RESULTS....I recommended Option #2 to reap the biggest bang for the buck.  Working with neutral furnishings and accenting with a Rusty Orange the green walls work and it all l...

As any one that reads about my kids knows I keep them active in sports.  Much to my sorry only one has shown a real aptitude for Baseball. Corbin is 12 and a great left handed baseball player.  He plays first base and outfield.  He has just started to pitch. He plays in the Continental Little League in Walnut Creek. Saturday 4/2/11 they had an exhibition game against a team from Pittsburg.  He played great at 1st and in center with good at bats.  He got one inning of pitching in and was excellent with two strike outs and another out to the field.  They were playing on a minor field which has a shorter mound and distance to the plate than he is used to so he was coming in a little high in warm ups, but he adjusted.

I have been speaking of late at local groups about Green, Sustainable organizations and what's going on locally (which is a lot). My philosphy is that we all have to start where we are... whatever brings us to the awareness that we can do something starting from where we are today. We are all in this together, I don't know of another planet that will support us, so making small changes en masse is a great way to make a difference. Along those lines, my slogan is "to do more tomorrow than I did today"... baby steps. It's actually kind of fun to look for the next thing you can do that will not change your quality of life drastically but will make a big difference in impact locally and beyond. As my daughter (Chris) and granddaughter (Rhiannon) are vegetarians, we are familiar with eating ...

The following numbers represent the Real Estate Market Review of homes sold for the first two months of 2011 versus the same period in 2010 for Walnut Creek, CA. Keep in mind that real estate markets are local in nature and there will be micro markets in every town.  There is a nice increase in sales at the lower end of the market which accounts for the reduction in the median price. At this point in the year there is a small data set so there can be large fluctuations in the numbers. This should smooth out a bit as we finish the first quarter and move into the second.
