While the Santa Lucia Preserve, known locally as The Preserve, is a place apart from the rest of the world, it has not escaped the recent downturn in the economy. Unlike many developments across the country, and the world, The Preserve was well beyond its infancy when global financial uncertainty would have affected its operations and growth. There is over $200,000,000 worth of infrastructure paid for and in place within the 20,000 acres of The Preserve including a nationally ranked … Continue reading The Market in the Santa Lucia Preserve

Carmel Real Estate Market Update 18 Nov 2008
There are 150 properties for sale in Carmel, with properties taking over 180 days to sell….when they sell. These days, the number of sellers that “give up” is well above past years.

I have helped first time home buyers purchase homes when 24 months ago they thought they would be … Continue reading Median Price Slide in Seaside, California

The orange bar is the 90 day median price trend line from a year ago. The black line is this year. It is interesting to see the inflection of the black line over the … Continue reading Carmel Real Estate…How the Market Looks Compared to a Year Ago
