There's been a lot written and said about how the numbers of Hope Ranch Real Estate sales are off when you compare them to 2004. Since it's always a good idea to stand back and get a little perspective to see where we've been I thought I'd go back to 2000 and look at each subsequent year to today.Okay, so looking at Hope Ranch Real Estate for 2000 from Jan. 1 through October 31 we see 19 sales with a median price of $1.8 million. The number of listings for the same time period was 25 with a median list price of $2.09.

If you want historical sites of the American Revolution, you need to visit Boston. Of course there are other reasons to visit, also: the food, the people, and the accents.Having experiencing a detour within seconds after we picked up our rental car at Boston's Logan Airport, we didn't want to brave the hand directed traffic of the streets of Boston.

Horse Art - Eadweard Muybridge, Leland Stanford, and the Hobby Horse
A collaboration between an English-born eccentric Eadweard Muybridge and the founder of one of our great universities resulted in a series of events which spelled the end of the "hobby-horse" posture in horse art and paintings.Towards the end of the 19th century, an event occurred which significantly changed the world of horse art, in particular paintings but for sculpture as well. Until that time period, most paintings of horses at full gallop showed the front legs extended forward and the hind legs extended to the rear. Unless a horse's motion was to be similar to that of a rabbits's, this position would be anatomically impossible. This posture by the way, is often referred to as the rocking...
Selecting a Horse - Choose the Breed Carefully
Owning a horse is a huge responsibility. Just like owning any pet, you should put a great deal of thought and consideration before you decide to purchase an equine. Since most individuals will have to house horses off their property, you should first consider finding a suitable stable before you purchase a horse. Also, consider your wants and needs. If you or your stable has limited space, you might not want to consider a sizable draft horse like a Clydesdale. However, if you are in need of a large horse to do a great deal of work pulling wagons, you should consider breeds other than Shetlands. There are a great number of breeds, each with a different pro and con. After carefully reviewing...

So now, in light of the entirely new and revolutionary political landscape in Capitol Hill, what are mundane folks like you and I supposed to do?Sure, the social agenda of the Democratic Party in general, and the personal ‘socialist' agenda of Congresswoman and Speaker of the House Nancy...
Horses, Stables, And Horse Properties
If you are planning to buy and keep horses as pets or business, you must consider buying realty horse properties.

The best thing you can do if you don't have the dough to buy several acres of land is to lease a stable. The internet and most equine magazines provide listings of major companies leasing horse properties to horse owners.However, don't just pick...

Is Headline News Making Your Real Estate Decisions
Looking at the headlines for the last four months about housing is really depressing. However I have noticed that the bodies of the articles and the headline are often at odds. This made me wonder how many people make their housing decisions based on the headlines instead of the articles. We are a nation addicted to the quick.

Articles take time to read; we need the condensed version.One headline in red bold point type is: 31.7% Biggest Drop in CA home Sales 24 years. What you don't find until the second paragraph is that the drop is from September of 2005. Not mentioned is that home sales in 2005 were the highest ever recorded...
