Hello again!
Sales volume was up as expected in February from our typical
low point in January. With buyers and sellers getting back into the
swing of things, more and more people are ready to buy and
sell. Although there are the numerous articles casting a negative
light on the Real Estate market in general, San Francisco continues to be
strong. Low
inventories are beginning to ease as more
homes are being listed for sale. President and COO of
Coldwell Banker, San Francisco Bay
Area, the Bay Area is one of
the hottest areas because people want to live here. Read his
comments on our website. To drive the point home, "Rich Dad Seminars" is
hosting a 2 day Real Estate investing event at the Moscone Center at the
end of the
month.

Our newly
constructed home on a 3 acre lot the Big Island at Kohala Ranch is
finished. There are marvelous panoramic views of the Kohala Coast and
the Pacific ocean, and has been fully furnished and decorated by interior
designer, Arthur McLaughlin. It is now ready for
sale for
$2,295,000.
Our condominium at Kolea on the Big Island is also on the
market and pictures may be seen on our vacations page. This gorgeous 3
bedroom, 3 1/2 bath second floor unit has ocean views and is steps from the pool. It's
listed at $2,850,000.
Last month, the Coldwell Banker
International Business Conference took place in San
Francisco. It was an exciting event and we
are in contact
with Elite Realtors from all over the world to whom we can
refer people for real estate in other areas.
Remember, if
you, your friends or your family
need a property in San Francisco or a referral in another
area of the country, keep us in mind. In return for the lead, we'll give
you a chance to win our Rewards for
RE-ferrals contest.
The March Market Update for February is
available now on our website. We also included February 2004 sales
figures to give you an idea of how San Francisco Real Estate,
on average, continues to increase in value.
