2009-09-16 14:45:00 One of the islands off the coast of Washington, Lopez Island, has seen rising land prices, which in turn, has put the squeeze on teachers, health care workers, and others in need of affordable housing. In an effort to help, Mithun partnered with the Lopez Community Land Trust to create eleven economically, environmentally, and socially sustainable homes. These homes are now complete and the community, Common Ground, is absolutely incredible. The net-zero energy homes feature some of these green elements: Small footprints designed to reduce energy and resource use; Overhangs for heat gain in the winter and shade in summer; Vegetated trellises designed to shade lower windows; Super insulated walls and roofing; Straw bales at north, east, and west walls; High efficiency, operable windows; Solar shades on window interiors; Insulated night and light shades at windows; Concrete floor as thermal mass; Energy Star appliances and CFLs; Low flow plumbing fixtu...

New Home Market “Stabilizing”? Maracay Homes Doesn’t Thin
2009-09-10 15:39:00 You can watch the news to find out how the new home sale market is "stabilizing" and homebuilder sentiment is "improving", or you can do like I do and take a peek into L’s junk mail for a more realistic view of where builders think the market is headed: [Thanks L- it's great to have you back!] When the market was hot, the homebuilders wouldn’t give agents the time of day. When the market cooled and builders were stuck with bloated inventories, they started offering higher commissions, gas cards and other perks. Guess which mode Maracay is in?

A Photo Gallery of Homes in Portland, Oregon, known as Nob Hill
2009-09-07 07:00:00 I discovered a little pocket of delightful homes in Portland, Oregon, while on vacation. These homes are located in the Alphabet Historic District in Northwest Portland, dubbed Nob Hill. My husband and I grabbed a long weekend right after the 4th of July and flew to Portland. It's a quick flight, about an hour from Sacramento. Besides touring the sights in Portland, we also walked through a few neighborhoods. I always feel the need to look at real estate, even on vacation. I constantly hear about how progressive Portland is as it's sometimes held up as a model to follow, especially concerning its infill projects and neighborhood developments. I hope you'll be as intrigued as you look through the photo gallery of homes in Nob Hill, the Northwest area of Portland . . . read more about Homes in Portland.

Rising Number of Foreclosures Aggravate The Ill-Maintenance of the Homes
2009-08-21 13:47:00 Cindy Diemer, the Lady Lake Senior Code Enforcement Officer referred to one of the foreclosed home backyards as a jungle. Numerous foreclosed homes in the towns having big lawns with reckless growth of grasses and weeds is causing a lot of trouble. There are many such lawns and backyards which do not have any owners at present. In fact, Lady Lake has kept away some money for the payment of the contractors for the maintenance of the lawns as their owners have failed to agree to the ‘code enforcement notices’. According to Lady Lake, the city is attempting to get an ordinance which would need the owners like banks to enroll their foreclosed properties along with the town. Lady Lake being the only municipality, inclusive of being one among the very few in the state which pursued this ordinance. Diemer commented about the home foreclosures that, “It’s a tough situation for people all across the country. Anything we can do to help preserve our community we shoul...
