Price of gas in San Diego and California's large metro cities?

Since I posted some information last night about "what are the best gas credit cards for 2012?" so you can find better ways to save money at the pump with plastic this year, I decided to add a few more information in regards to the gas price around California's metro areas. Weather you are pumping Regular Mid Premium or Diesel, you will be able to compare the price of gas from today with last week and even last year!

It helps a lot for people looking to relocate to our beautiful sunny state. This week end the temperature was 75F+ and it's very nice compared to the freezing cold that Europe is having right now or the East coast. Check the weather below and if you are looking to migrate to some warmer weather, give me a call and I'd be glad to help you. These temperatures are a of 08:20 AM PST on Monday February 6th 2012.
Then lower you will be able to print the AAA's Daily Fuel Gauge Report for the main cities of state of California from San Diego and Orange County up to Sacramento and Redding,CA.

HOUSING NEWS: San Diego County and DC are the stronger!

After our Tuesday morning office meeting conversation at our Carlsbad,CA Prudential California Realty, I decided to investigate a bit more on our market which has been raising in February versus all January combined...

San Diego County house prices only reduced -0.1% in December from November, the fourth time in five months that prices dropped, according to Standard & Poor's Case-Shiller Home Price Index released yesterday February 22sd 2011.

The national index was down -1% from November and -2.4% from previous December 2009.

Now that index showed a dropped in priced all over the US except two markets: San Diego and Washington, D.C. which both show a raise in price compared with the same month last year. San Diego house prices grew +1.7% from December 2009.**

We all noticed that prices are remaining still or cooling but the activity has increased, I was slammed the last quarter and January looked promising but the increase in calls and web traffic in February has been much significant.

We can also see some bidding war happening in all price ranges, if it is priced well and a desirable property, it will sale and don't be surprise to see a couple offers or more. Last November and December, I had clients that didn't listen to my recommendations and got out bid on properties they really wanted...

San Diego,CA is a large area and very fluid in movements, people are relocating a lot to and fro for work, award winning schools, a better climate, .... you name it! San Diego,Ca is a wonderful place to live filled with activities, jobs, greater priced homes than several years ago and more opportunities than ever!

Yes, if you pay attention at the job postings, they are here, people are recruiting in different fields and relocating key people; how do I know this? Well, I am serving as a relocation specialist and a vast majority of my clients are relocating from out of the area to the greater San Diego,CA area (Carlsbad,Del Mar, San Marcos, Oceanside...) or South of Orange County,CA (San Clemente, Dana Point..).

I have also noticed an increase in the amount of agent-to-agent reciprocal referrals which is encouraging!

Now first time home buyers can finally make their American dreams a reality and investors are making bank refurbishing properties sold previously at auction on the court step or from the foreclosure listings.

For the sellers it is also encouraging based on the stats from our local association of Realtors: San Diego County house prices were +10.2% from the low set in April 2009. At the rate of sales in January, North County buyers would need 8.8 months to buy up all available houses, according to the Realtors association.

In real estate language, when we have a 6month inventory we have an even market so 8.8 month is a bit more on the buyers favor but not dramatically, so it's time to list your home and move up!

Bottom line: demand is picking up while the interest rates are slowly rising (but still in the lowest ever seen in the last 50 yrs!!), so get ready and pick your home before your competition does!

** For your more local report, please contact me, this outlook is for the whole county of San Diego,CA but I can provide you with an outlook of the last few years and upcoming trends in your own zip code, send me an email or call me for details!

Angélique Kenney, your local San Diego and South Orange County real estate resource!

Angelique Kenney, your Carlsbad and coastal real estate specialist with Prudential California Realty.

I just moved!

Hello there,

I just wanted to break out the news to you today since it's valentines day...Happy valentine's day!

And because today is about what and who you love, well as you know I love real estate so naturally I have to follow my dreams and passion which leads me to change office!

Farewell RE/MAX and welcome Prudential California Realty in Carlsbad, the #1 franchise in all SoCal and specifically San Diego! 

My new office is conveniently located West off the 5 freeway off Poinsettia, on 7030 Avenida Encinitas, suite 100 a few blocks by the beach!

I love their marketing, their many offices available while on the go and the offer I couldn't resist!

So here go now you now, don't hesitate to stop by and say hello or we can even review your real estate plan for 2011 or the upcoming year and grab a coffee down at Starbucks.

Have a terrific day and don't hesitate to send me your friends, family and other referrals, I will get the job done and help them out with a smile!

Thank you for your continuous support!

Sincerely,

Angélique Kenney

PS: If you see any remaining RE/MAX ads somewhere on the web or other, be kind to point them out to me since it's a very labor intensive task to switch office and I don't want to forget anything, thanks :)!
