			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>COMMUNITY INFORMATION</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Alpine is a community situated in the eastern region of San Diego County within the state of California. There are approximately 19,227 residents in this Zip code (91901) and 6,597 households. The median age of residents is 38.92 years. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>TEMPERATURE</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The temperature in Alpine is relatively moderate.  The warmest time of year occurs in August during which temperatures reach an average high of 76°F.  The coldest time of year occurs in January with average temperatures falling to 54°F.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>HOME AND REAL ESTATE PRICES</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The housing options in Alpine include single-family homes and properties, condominiums, townhouses, and apartments.  The price of housing is as follows:</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>·One bedroom townhouse/condominium start in the low $200,000s. <br />&#13;<br />
·Two bedroom townhouse/condominium start in the low $200,000s. <br />&#13;<br />
·Three bedroom townhouse/condominium start in the mid $300,000s.<br />&#13;<br />

·Four bedroom single-family homes start in the high $500,000s.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>REAL ESTATE MARKET TRENDS</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>As with most products and services in the United States, price shifts in the real estate industry are subject to the forces of supply and demand.  Whether it&#8217;s a buyers market or a seller&#8217;s market, it is useful to evaluate home sales data for the most recent month available (June 2006), compared against the same period in the previous year (June 2005).</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The median price of single-family homes in June 2006 was $597,500, which represents a 10.2% decline from the previous year.  The number of homes sold in June 2006 was 17, which was down 37% from the previous year.  </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Homebuyers and home sellers should keep in mind that the data above is simply a snapshot in time.  Therefore, the data must be evaluated over a longer duration to understand enduring market trends.  </p>
<p>&#13;<br />

<p>As with most products and services in the United States, price shifts in the real estate industry are subject to the forces of supply and demand.  Whether it&#8217;s a buyers market or a seller&#8217;s market, it is useful to evaluate home sales data for the most recent month available (June 2006), compared against the same period in the previous year (June 2005).</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The median price of single-family homes reached $1,080,000 in June 2006, which was a 13.74% increase over June 2005.  In contrast, the median price of condominiums and townhomes decreased to $580,000, which was a 7.2 decline from the year before.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The foreclosure market is an attractive option for buyers wanting to invest in real estate. A foreclosed property is a mortgaged property that has been taken over by the lender due to non-payment of the mortgage. The lender then sells the property in order to recover the money, often at below market prices. Foreclosed homes, condos and other properties can for make excellent investments and is a popular choice for those entering the real estate market.&#13;</p>
<p>The October 2006 issue of Business 2.0 Magazine ranks the top 10 foreclosure markets in the United States. Greeley in Colorado tops the list followed by Detroit in Michigan, Miami in Florida, Indianapolis in Indiana, Ft. Lauderdale in Florida, Denver in Colorado, Dayton in Ohio, Dallas and Fort Worth in Texas, and Atlanta in Georgia.&#13;</p>
<p>Greeley, CO, has the largest number of foreclosure households in the country, with 0.59% of homes falling in the category, an increase by 14.7% since January 2006. The report holds aggressive residential development, risky underwriting practices and stagnant wages as the main causes.&#13;</p>
<p>Detroit, MI, stands next with 0.51% of the households in foreclosure. The badly performing auto industry and the resulting impact to autoworkers&#8217; incomes has contributed to number of homes in foreclosure in this city.&#13;</p>
<p>Third on the list is Miami, FL, where 0.37% of the households are in foreclosure, a staggering 91% increase since January 2006. The report states a weakening economy, higher property insurance premiums, and rising energy and interest rates, as the reasons for this rapid increase.&#13;</p>
<p>The fourth among the top ten foreclosure markets is Indianapolis, IN. Although the foreclosure rates are slightly lower from last year, still the portion of households in foreclosure stands at 0.35%. Setbacks and layoffs in the city&#8217;s auto industry together with falling home prices have contributed to foreclosure rates in this city.&#13;</p>
<p>Fort Lauderdale, FL, stands fifth with 0.34% of households entering foreclosure, which is up by a whopping 118.5% since January 2006.&#13;</p>
<p>Denver (with 0.33% of households in foreclosure), Dayton (with 0.33% of households in foreclosure), Dallas (with 0.31% of households in foreclosures), Fort Worth (with 0.31% of households in foreclosure) and Atlanta (with 0.31% of households in foreclosures) round out the top 10 foreclosure markets.&#13;</p>
<p>If you are looking to invest in the foreclosure market, consult a real estate agent who can help you clinch the best deal on the foreclosure property of your choice.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Modest median price gains in new and existing homes, a stable interest rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage, decreased housing starts and a stable unemployment rate are some of the features of the 2007 housing forecast provided by major trade group economists as reported by The Inman News.</p>
<p>&#13;NAR chief economist David Lereah expects new-home sales to fall from 1.07 million units sold in 2006 to 975,000 units in 2007, which is an 8.7% decline. He cites decreased new home construction as a large contributing factor to this change. The median new home price of $238,400 in 2006 is expected to increase by 1.3 percent to $241,400 in 2007.</p>
<p>&#13;NAR also predicts that existing home sales figures for 2006 to end around 6.47 million units, which is an 8.6% decline from 2005. The 2007 forecast for existing home sales is 6.43 million units. The median price of existing homes in 2006 was $223,700 and is expected to increase 1.7% to $227,500 in 2007.</p>
<p>&#13;Doug Duncan, chief economist for the Mortgage Bankers Association predicts the interest rates on 30-year fixed mortgages to stay around 6.5 percent, but mortgage originations to fall 14% to $2.1 trillion.</p>
<p>&#13;While Lereah predicts that the unemployment rate to stay at 4.7 percent, Duncan takes it higher and believes it may reach 5.2 percent by midyear 2007. However, he concurs with Lereah in predicting modest home price gains in new and existing homes for the coming year.</p>
<p>&#13;The housing forecast of The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) is in line with NAR and the Mortgage Bankers Association. According to David Seiders, Chief Economist at NAHB, the year 2007 will see the housing market re-adjust itself once the housing demand stabilizes, leading to a healthy balance between supply and demand.</p>
<p>&#13;Looking at the state level, the California Association of Realtors (CAR) projects that the median price of California homes will end 2006 around $560,700, and will decline in 2007 to $550,000 &#8212; a 1.7% drop. The number of units sold in California will end 2006 around 481,200, and is projected to decrease 447,500 in 2007. CAR predicts that the unemployment rate will stay around 5.1 percent, although interest rates on the 30-year fixed mortgage may hover around 6.7 percent in 2007.</p>
<p>&#13;The overall housing forecast for 2007 made by these four major real estate trade groups is not at all bad. Home buyers and investors planning to go ahead with their real estate activities can fare better with the help of a good real estate agent.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In many parts of the country, home prices doubled during the period from 2000 to 2005. During this same time, creative financing programs (e.g. zero down payment, adjustable rate loans, interest only loans, option ARMs loans, negative amortization loans, etc.) gained popularity and helped some people buy homes who would not normally qualify based on their income, debt level and credit history.</p>
<p>&#13;Most real estate markets are now cooling, and some are even experiencing declining prices. In times of dropping real estate prices, the amount owed on a loan by some homeowners may actually exceed the value of a property. If homeowners cannot make their monthly mortgage payment, there is a potential for default on the loan and foreclosure of the property by the lender.</p>
<p>&#13;The term &#8220;short sales&#8221; is used to describe a situation in which a homeowner is at risk of defaulting on their loan, and the lender agrees to sell the property below the original appraisal price in order to avoid foreclosure. Most lenders do not readily agree to short sales, although exceptional circumstances such as a homeowner losing his/her job or the death of a wage-earning spouse may make some of them more open to doing so.</p>
<p>&#13;If a property is sold as a short sale, the lender recoups at least a portion of the original loan amount, the homeowner avoids the stress and stigma of foreclosure, and the new homebuyer gets a property below its original appraisal price. If a short sale doesn&#8217;t work, then the property usually goes into foreclosure.</p>
<p>&#13;Short sales may be an emerging trend as the rate of foreclosure is rising dramatically across the nation.  According to Business 2.0 Magazine, the top 10 foreclosures markets are:</p>
<p>&#13;1. Greeley, CO<br />&#13;2. Detroit, MI<br />&#13;3. Miami, FL<br />&#13;4. Indianapolis, IN<br />&#13;5. Fort Lauderdale, FL<br />&#13;6. Denver, CO<br />&#13;7.Dayton, OH<br />&#13;8.Dallas, TX<br />&#13;9.Fort Worth, TX<br />&#13;10.Atlanta, GA</p>
<p>&#13;The credit of homeowners may be impacted after a short sale, but it all depends on how the lender reports the outcome. Some lenders report a partial loan repayment as full payment of the debt due, which does not adversely impact the credit of the borrowers. Other lenders report the sale as &#8220;settled,&#8221; which adversely and significantly impacts the borrower&#8217;s credit. The other problem is that the portion of the loan amount forgiven by the lender may actually count as taxable income by the IRS.</p>
<p>&#13;In summary, a successful short sale has some potential positive benefits (e.g., homeowners avoid foreclosure, lenders recoup at least a portion of the loan amount, new homebuyers gets a property at below the original appraisal price, etc), but there are also many negative consequences. Some of these potential negative consequences include: the negative impact on borrower&#8217;s credit, negative impact on the value of other similar homes in the neighborhood, and that the amount forgiven by the lender may be taxable event. Homeowners having difficulty making their monthly mortgage payment may benefit from talking to a real estate agent who is experienced in short sales.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In its 4th quarter report of 2006, the real estate information site estimates the home value trends for the U.S. and 75 metropolitan areas. According to the data from http://Zillow.com, home values are now declining slightly on a year-over-year basis for the first time in a decade after years of appreciation.</p>
<p>&#13;Zillow&#8217;s home value data goes back to 1997 and reveals the depreciation of home value rates at 0.48 % year-over-year at the national level. The depreciation in home value every quarter is at 4.77 %. Zillow&#8217;s appreciation rate is based on the value of all homes in an area, including those that were sold.</p>
<p>&#13;Although there is a fall in the over-all home price growth, areas such as Seattle and Portland are experiencing a surge in home values at good appreciation rates. Besides national home values, the report also presents comprehensive data on local market price growth and decline in 75 metropolitan areas. The Zillow report gives detailed data on home value changes for counties, cities, neighborhoods and ZIP codes in U.S.A.</p>
<p>&#13;The top 5 metro areas with the highest price growth, year-over-year, are:</p>
<p>&#13;1. Lakeland-Winter Haven, Florida, with an appreciation rate of 25.88 %<br />&#13;2. Yuma, Arizona, with an appreciation rate of 25.66 %<br />&#13;3. Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, with an appreciation rate of 21.24 %<br />&#13;4. Flagstaff, Arizona, with an appreciation rate of 19.02 %<br />&#13;5. Ocala, Florida with an appreciation rate of 17.56 %</p>
<p>&#13;The 5 metropolitan areas that have the most declining home values, year-over-year, are:</p>
<p>&#13;1. Panama City, Florida, with a depreciation rate of 11.84 %<br />&#13;2. San Luis Obispo-Atascadero-Paso Robles, California, with a depreciation rate of 11.35 %<br />&#13;3. Punta Gorda, Florida, with a depreciation rate of 9.23 %<br />&#13;4. Sarasota-Bradenton, Florida, with a depreciation rate of 8.99 %<br />&#13;5. Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson, South Carolina, with a depreciation rate of 8.73 %</p>
<p>&#13;The Zillow national report also includes the top five most expensive and least expensive metro areas measured by the Zindex home value indicator.</p>
<p>&#13;The top 5 metro areas that are most expensive are:</p>
<p>&#13;1. San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose, California at $684,459<br />&#13;2. Salinas, California at $654,503<br />&#13;3. Santa Barbara-Santa Maria-Lompoc, California at $627,323<br />&#13;4. Honolulu, Hawaii at $626,452<br />&#13;5. Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County, California at $545,409</p>
<p>&#13;The top 5 metro areas that are the least expensive are:</p>
<p>&#13;1. Davenport-Moline-Rock Island, IA-IL at $86,201<br />&#13;2. Peoria-Pekin, Illinois at $91,984<br />&#13;3. Greenville-Spartanburg-Anderson, South Carolina at $96,508<br />&#13;4. Tulsa, Oklahoma at $97,186<br />&#13;5. Dayton-Springfield, Ohio at $103,729</p>
<p>&#13;Even within these markets, there are hot and cold housing segments of the community. Be sure to seek out the services of a local real estate agent, who can advise you about local market conditions that impact the price of homes, condos and other types of real estate.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The community of Coronado is located on the central coast of San Diego County.  This 13.5 square mile peninsula is accessible via the famous Coronado Bay Bridge, by water ferry from Downtown San Diego, or through Imperial Beach via highway 75.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The real estate and homes for sale in Coronado are some of the most expensive properties in San Diego County.  The number of homes sold in a particular year is relatively low.  For example, during the period from January through July 2006, approximately 64 single-family homes sold.  Approximately 79 homes sold for the same period in 2005.  The price of homes in Coronado varies widely from moderately priced small cottages to multi-million dollar estates.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>One method to analyze pricing trends for a particular community is to evaluate the median and average price of homes for a particular month, and compare that data against the same period last year.  What follows is a comparison of the median price and average price of homes for the past seven months (January through July 2006), compared against the data for the corresponding time period in 2005.  </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The median price of homes represents the point at which half the homes are above a particular price point, and half the homes are below a particular price point.  The average price of homes is calculated by adding up the sales price of all homes sold in a particular month, and dividing that value by the number of homes sold.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The median price of homes in July 2006 was $1,505,000, compared to $1,481,250 in July 2005, which represents a 1.6% increase.  The average price of homes in July 2006 was $1,795,179, compared to $1,603,214 in July 2005, which represents an 11.5% drop.  Approximately 7 homes sold in July 2006 and 14 in July 2005.  In summary, the data was mixed for July 2006, with the median price posting a small increase and the average price dropping 11.5%.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The median price of homes in June 2006 was $1,775,000, compared to $1,570,000 in June 2005, which represents a 13.1% increase.  The average price of homes in June 2006 was $1,998,860, compared to $1,778,214 in June 2005, which represents a 12.4% increase.  Approximately 15 homes sold in June 2006 and 21 in June 2005.  In summary, the data provides evidence that there was an upward price trend in June 2006 compared to the same period last year.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The median price of homes in May 2006 was $1,200,000, compared to $1,390,000 in May 2005, which represents a 13.7% drop.  The average price of homes in May 2006 was $1,576,429, compared to $1,615,692 in May 2005, which represents a 2.4% drop.  Approximately 7 homes sold in May 2006 and 13 in May 2005.  In summary, the data provides evidence that there was a downward price trend in May 2006 compared to the same period last year.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The median price of homes in April 2006 was $2,250,000, compared to $1,450,000 in April 2005, which represents a 55.2% increase.  The average price of homes in April 2006 was $2,667,200, compared to $1,731,524 in April 2005, which represents a 54% increase.  Approximately 10 homes sold in April 2006 and 7 in April 2005.  In summary, the data provides evidence that there was a significant upward price trend in April 2006 compared to the same period last year.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The median price of homes in March 2006 was $1,650,000, compared to $1,780,000 in March 2005, which represents a 7.3% drop.  The average price of homes in March 2006 was $2,219,667, compared to $1,774,667 in March 2005, which represents a 25.1% increase.  Approximately 15 homes sold in March 2006 and 9 in March 2005.  In summary, the data was mixed for March 2006, with a drop in median price and an increase in average price.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The median price of homes in February 2006 was $1,185,000, compared to $875,000 in February 2005, which represents a 35.4% increase.  The average price of homes in February 2006 was $1,327,000, compared to $1,011,667 in February 2005, which represents a 31.2% increase.   Approximately 5 homes sold in February 2006 and 3 in February 2005.  In summary, the data provides evidence that there was an upward price trend in February 2006 compared to the same period last year.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The median price of homes was $1,700,000 in January 2006, compared to $1,531,500 in January 2005, which represents an 11% increase.  The average price of homes in January 2006 was $1,599,000, compared to $1,717,750 in January 2005, which represents a 6.9% drop.  Approximately 5 homes sold in January 2006 and 12 in January 2005.  In summary, the data was mixed for January 2006, with a jump in median price and a decline in average price.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>So what does the above data tell us?   Overall, there was a 19% decline in the number of homes sold during this period from 2006 to 2005.   Besides that, the Coronado real estate market is very hard to characterize because of the limited number of homes that sell every month, and the wide variation in home prices.  The median and average prices fluctuated substantially depending on whether or not very expensive homes sold that month or not.  Prospective home buyers should seek the advise of an experienced real estate agent to help them understand the micro pricing trends of homes in their price range. </p>
