With 87 sold homes out of 999 active homes, the absorption rate is just around 9% which is not too bad. 28 condos sold in September. The majority of the sold homes were in the $300K-$499K price range with 32 total homes selling. 12 homes sold for $299K or less, 22 homes sold in the $500K-$699K range, and 12 in the $700K-$899K.

Man of La Mancha Play
June 25, 2009
I recently went to see the play “Man of La Mancha” in Mill Valley last Sunday. The weather was gorgeous and the play was incredible. One of the highlights was the theme song - “The Impossible Dream.” It was really a fitting song for all of us during these tough times. Since many of our homeowners are from the Bay Area, I wanted to share this story with everyone. Looking at the program, I noticed a clever ad from ProMortgage.
They put their own words to the song “The Impossible Dream” (see to the left).
Once again, very encouraging to all of us during this time! Sing along with Randi.
