A changing of the guard concerning Oxford / Orion FISH is due to take place at the end of this month. Valarie Cass, who's been the nonprofit group's pantry coordinator for the last 6 years, is stepping down and handing the job over to Sandy Klersy and Kelly Fuller. Although Cass plans to continue doing volunteer work for the group, she decided it was time to pass the torch when it came to managing and operating the food pantry in Thomas, a tiny unincorporated area of Oxford Twp, located north of the village and west of M-24. Klersy's involvement with FISH began about 3 years ago when she was living in Lake Orion. She and her home-schooled daughter were looking for a volunteer opportunity. She and her daughter saw an item in the newspaper about FISH and started bagging groceries for clie...

Real estate sales for Oxford Michigan still favor the buyer and will for the unforeseeable future. Unit sales were up over 12% (or 31 units) in 2009 over 2008, but prices continued to drop. The median sales price for a house in Oxford last year was $140,000- down 25% from 2008 and down 44.2% from 2005 (or $111,000). Of the 247 houses that sold through the MLS, 116 were bank or government-owned and 28 were short sales for a total of 144 distressed sales (or 41.7% of the sales in Oxford were distress sales). Have prices hit bottom? I don't think so. Will interest rates stay this low? Who knows? Right now prices are pre-2000 prices, interest rates are low, Oxford still qualifies for the zero down rural development loan, and you have to live someplace. Right now a house payment may be lower...
