Do you or someone you know have a red farmhouse?
Your farmhouse’s red exterior is probably paying homage to an old fashioned tradition.

Good Monday morning from Del Mar California! It’s a great day and going to be a most excellent week.
I’d love to hear what’s good in your world …
One of the best things of my day, is going to be finally being allowed to go to walk on the beach. Despite the fact that we live 2 blocks from the edge of the world (and the Pacific Ocean), the powers that be (used to be?) have been keeping us from walking on the beach, swimming in the ocean and even going to to cliffs to watch sunsets. After a lot of political BS, this has been lifted and as of today, we can once again go to the beach in Del Mar.
BTW – if you are in the market for a home in Del Mar, there is a nice, new one right above the cliff (and behind where we go for sunsets) that was just relisted with Brett Combs of Compass Real Estate for a cool $15 million (it was formerly listed with Barry Estates at the same price). Here’s the link to the Zillow info for 522 Stratford Court in Del Mar.

It seems that there are A LOT of people in the San Diego real estate industry who are worried about the San Diego real estate market. Could it be that the San Diego real estate bubble is about to burst – AGAIN? We just don’t know – do we?
Anyone who has been through a real estate cycle knows that what goes up, must come down and there are a number of factors that affect a local real estate market. Jobs, the economy, public perception, affordability (or lack thereof), interest rates / cost of money are all factors in the strength and health of San Diego real estate. The political unrest in our country is beyond unsettling. There are even leftist groups calling for anarchy here in our own country. Qualcomm is still the largest employer in San Diego outside of the military and they are currently going through a big shakeup after President Trump quashed Broadcomm’s hostile takeover bid.

Yesterday I wrote about looking for a Listing Agent Broker for A New Day Real Estate. I believe this person could be a key component to building a great professional and people centric real estate team – and could very well become a key partner / owner in the business.
Since we are modeling our team after the Tim Smith Group in Orange County, I thought I would list all the positions that we are going to need to fill while building our dream team. Read More
