Friends and associates!

 

The biggest news this month is the report about October sales figures. Despite the changing market, sales were strong in all of the categories we track, with prices of sold homes and condos increasing over 10-15% from the same time last year! However, remember the closings in October reflect sales negiotiated in August and September.  Next month may show a different picture.

 

Other exciting new is that we have closed on our luxury vacation rental property at Kolea on the Kohala coast on the big island of Hawaii.  It is in a gated community at Waikoloa with ocean views and direct beach access.  So if you know of anyone who wants a luxury vacation retreat, contact us for information.

 

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; a ONE WEEK stay in Hawaii at a luxury townhouse condominium at the Fairways at the Mauna Lani.

 

Avram Goldman, the CEO of Coldwell Banker San Francisco Bay Area, reports about the equilibruim of the market in his late October report.

 
The November Market Update for October is available now on our website. We also included October 2004 sales figures to give you an idea of how San Francisco Real Estate, on average, is dramatically increasing in value.
