The Peninsula, SF
and Marin are still seller's
market, with Marin being the
strongest. Alameda County is neutral
with pockets of weakness, Solano and
East Contra Costa are buyer's
markets. Check out this
heat map.
If you ar a buyer you should be
actively scouting deals. If you are
an investor, you should be looking
in Riverside County, because
there's a glut of property and
they're easy to rent out. Call me if
you're interested.

Power
Tools for the Real Estate
Investor
TRexGlobal is building a
series of tiny simple apps
to empower the real estate
investor. The 1st app
Defer'm
simplifies the completion of
Form 8824 which reports to the
IRS your deferred gain on your
1031 exchange. Even
CPA (inactive)s love this app!
The 2nd app is
Depreciate'm which
simplifies the segratation
of the assets purchased and
values them to allow for
accelerated depreciation and
then completes the Form 4562. If
you are investing in real
estate, you'll want to use both
these tiny apps. top
Help
Save Vinay's Life
Vinay is 28 years old and has
Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). He
is married, and we have known
the family for more than 25
years. Vinay was diagnosed in
November of 2006 and was
informed a few weeks ago that he
is in need of a bone marrow
transplant.
Every year many South Asian
patients are diagnosed with
blood-related diseases. In
order to survive, Vinay and many
other patients need a bone
marrow transplant from a
matching donor. Nearly 30% of
patients will find a matching
donor within their families. The
remaining 70% must search for an
unrelated donor. Unfortunately,
a very small percentage of South
Asians (Indians, Pakistanis, Sri
Lankans and Bangladeshis) are
registered to be marrow donors.
South Asians comprise
approximately only 1% of the
National Marrow Donor Registry.
Vinay grew up in Fremont,
California and attended
Ardenwood Elementary, Walters
Junior High, Kennedy High
School, and UC Berkeley before
going on to getting a Masters
and MD at Boston University.
Vinay and Rashmi have lived in
Boston since the wedding. Vinay
is known amongst his family and
friends as being a kind, honest
and loving human being.

where you can register as a
bone marrow donor to help
Vinay go here: www.helpvinay.org. top
