We had a local Truckee home lender come to the office meeting this morning. There was the usual, "rates are great", "there's never been a better time to buy", "under-writing is a giant hassle" stuff that has been the norm for what seems like a couple of years now. But, there are also some new loan products, and options for jumbo loans that have been non-existent for a while. The rates are going Continue Reading
Is It Safe to Jump In?
There is a lot of concern and conflicting information out there that surround Truckee short sales and foreclosures. Part of that mis-info comes from the fact that it has been a moving target since the outset. There really has been little rhyme or reason to process or the timing. Each bank does it different, and the shear volume of these transactions that the banks are facing is daunting. One Continue Reading

Making New Friends
On Saturday afternoon, my family and I left our home in Truckee, headed to Reno for my daughter's end of the season softball party. As we neared the Nevada State line, we found ourselves in a line of cars following the CHP down the freeway. A big-rig had just gone over the side and down to the Truckee River, bursting in to flames. The driver suffered only minor injuries, but a 25 acre blaze Continue Reading
Pacific Crest “Property” at 8949′
Last week my son got suspended from school for the first time. Don't Ask! He got punched in the head and his reward...two days of forced vacation. Not wanting him to camp in front of the tube all day on a Friday, I suggested a hike with my good friend Steve Davis from Heat-Tech of Truckee. We chose one of the most amazing peaks in the Sierra, Tinker Knob. Supposedly named after a fellow named Continue Reading

Median Single Family Home Graph for Truckee Real Estate, 2004 – 1st Qtr 2010
Here is a graph reflecting median home sales prices in the Truckee Real Estate market through the first quarter of 2010. Prices fell another three percent in the first three months of this year. I think this is primarily because there are still quite a few homes and cabins in the Truckee and Donner Lake areas that are REO (bank owned) and short sale listings. Until these foreclosed and Continue Reading
