Day Program For Adults With Autism-
CDC (Center of Disease Control) April 2018
"Each year, an estimated 50,000 teens with autism age out of their school-based programs" CDC (Center of Disease Control) April 2018
It is estimated that 1.3 million adults have aged out of their current programming with nowhere to go. Without day programming, many remain in the home without access to educational services that lighten the load of an already strained household. These families are our neighbors.
B Walker Ranch has a solution.
B Walker Ranch is dedicated to making a profound difference for those families whose lives have been touched by autism. A working Ranch program that can be duplicated in communities everywhere.

I used the Real Estate Guide when I first started in the business over 15 years ago. When things slowed down a bit I moved to a less expensive publication. Big Mistake. I track all my marketing expenses annually to see what works & what doesn’t. My calls from ads dropped 75%,
The Real Estate Guide is a textbook example of “You get what you pay for”
I’ve been back with Steve for the last several years and can honestly say my business has picked up because of my ads I run in the Real Estate Guide.
This is not some second or third section of a daily paper, or an after thought to the Sports page. This is where serious buyers & sellers go when they need information on the Real Estate Market.
Thanks Steve, here’s to a successful 2023wo What a great time to be buying property !!!!!!!!!

It is a GREAT Time to Sell, But Where are All the Sellers?
By Patrick McCarran ~ Real Estate Broker
Multiple offers and low inventory of homes for sale is a boon to sellers and makes for challenging times if you’re a Buyer. In the Bay Area monthly inventory is down about 40-50% right now compared to the same period last year. Demand has definitely impacted the inventory and with it driven prices up roughly 10%. This is not unique to our area and has been common in many markets across the country. There is not just one reason for this and many factors are contributing to the current market.
There are a great many sellers that are concerned about the corona virus, whether contracting the virus or concern of the economic impact. This has led to sellers staying put and not listing during the pandemic.
Mortgage rates hovering around 3% have created a strong demand for homes. Largely due to buyers that have been on the fence but have recently decided to jump back in the market. This has created an increase in demand and has helped to deplete an already low inventory of available homes for sale.
New construction has been steady but it is limited in many areas due to multiple factors including a lack of buildable land, a lengthy governmental approval process, and of course NIMBY’s. We’ve had significant population growth in the midst of lackluster new construction since the housing bubble burst. If you compare the growth prior to 2009 to after it is relatively flat, in other words, we haven’t built enough units to meet demand and we’re really beginning to feel the effect of it. There has also been a cultural shift in a housing mindset in the last decade. Where prior to 2005 a majority of owners would sell and move within
five years. People today are staying in their homes longer and therefore not selling as often, the latest numbers show that home owners are averaging thirteen years in their homes. This can generally be chalked up partially to a shift in economic factors, however I also think the modern culture has shifted kids are staying with parents much longer and moving back in after college. This effects listing inventory as well as parents that may have sold are staying in place longer.
Increased migration due to economic and societal shifts has had an effect as well, however not necessarily in the away you may think. While many regional markets are seeing Californians leaving the state in record numbers and heading to Idaho, Nevada, Texas, and parts unknown, people are still coming to the California. The increase comes from new home buyers moving out on their own but also from job seekers moving in, they call it the Golden State for a reason.
We’ve been building larger homes for decades now, which may tend to eliminate the need for some owners to buy a move up. Often their current home will best suit their needs and therefore there is no reason to move. Some owners might like to list and downsize or start a new adventure, however they feel there’s nowhere to go due to financial reasons, expenses, lack of inventory, or just unsure where to go.
There are many industrial investors that purchased thousands of homes in the down turn and are hold them. In addition, the distressed sales are down to very low numbers. Lastly don’t forget about the natural disasters and the thousands of homes that have been eliminated form inventory, not mention adding potential buyers to the market.
What does all this mean? In all likelihood the demand/supply imbalance means that prices will very likely hold and continue to increase, and there is no “bubble” in the market. Prices have steadily climbed upward and most financing is at a fixed rate and term, not built on “no doc” loans with variable rates. This current surge in prices is supported often with large down payments to make up the difference between appraised value and market value. The consensuses of the major forecasters are projected to be around a ten percent increase this year and continued growth in the near future.
So, in summary it is a great time to buy or sell, prices are up for the sellers and therefore a good profit to be made especially if you are moving out of the area. If you a Seller downsizing then the passage of Proposition 19 may help you transfer your prop 13 base to your next home in a different county or part of the State. If you’re a Buyer interest rates are very low and every indication is they will increase eliminating your current buying power. A rate increase of 1% can lower your qualification by as much as $100,000.

What are some of the perks of doing a Virtual Real Estate Open House?
Without a doubt, virtual open houses lead to greater opportunities to connect with your prospects or leads because of three main reasons:
• It expands your reach: Virtual open houses no longer just serve the needs of locals who come to see the home in-person. Hosting open houses online means that your videos can be viewed without limitations of time or space. All it takes is a link to be shared out for another opportunity to be created.
• You can offer the convenience of anytime, anywhere: You can save you and your buyers time from having to travel and coordinate schedules to meet. Virtual tours are viewable until the day the property closes escrow.
• Buyers will want the option: Not everyone is interested in commuting to see a house in person for the first time. Occasionally, buyers will be more interested to vet a potential investment by first scanning it online. Whether or not social distancing enforcements are making it mandatory for you to only conduct virtual tours or not, having these be a part of your practice can help you filter out non-serious leads as it encourages only serious buyers to approach for further information.
