The document discusses the state of the housing market in Southwest California. It notes that home prices have increased 22% year-over-year in June 2013, with median prices reaching their highest levels since 2008. Home sales have remained steady while inventory has risen, alleviating pressure. Distressed home sales now make up a smaller portion of the market. The recovery appears to be continuing but uncertainty remains around employment, the economy, and new state regulations governing foreclosures. The author advocates restoring a tax exemption for senior homeowners to attract more to the region and boost the economy.
Annie Williams Real Estate Report Sept-Oct 2015Jon Weaver
Even with rising home prices over the past few years, many homeowners who have considered selling are deciding not to because they are caught in an affordability squeeze that is
compounded by a lack of inventory, according to findings from the CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®’ (C.A.R.) “2015 Survey of California Homeowners.” More than one-third (35%) of homeowners have considered selling their home in the past year, and of that share, about two-thirds (64%) are reluctant to sell because they are finding they can’t afford the home they really want, the survey found.

(based on listing views on realtor.com) is highest. At the top of the list, for the second month in a row, is San Francisco, followed by its sister Bay Area city San Jose.

Annie Williams Real Estate Report - April 2019Jon Weaver
The real estate market in San Francisco is beginning to heat up for three reasons. First, spring is when the market typically becomes more active. Two, mortgage rates are at 15-month lows. Third, IPOs have started creating instant millionaires.
Annie Williams Real Estate Report - July 2020Jon Weaver
Sales of single-family, re-sale homes jumped in June, rising 56.7% from May. They were down 14.2% year-over-year. There were 163 homes sold in San Francisco last month. The average since 2000 is 214. Year-to-date, home sales are down 29.8%. Condo sales are down 36.9%.
Annie Williams Real Estate Report - Dec 2015Jon Weaver
Housing affordability is one area where California can expect to experience long-term pain. Statewide, the percentage of households that earn enough to purchase a median-priced home rose 34 percent in early 2015 before settling in the low
30s—down from a high of 53 percent in 2011 and 36 percent in 2014. In high-priced coastal cities, percentages have fallen into the teens and lower.

Sales of single-family, re-sale homes tanked, again, in May compared to last year. Home sales were down 56.5%. There were 104 homes sold in San Francisco last month. The average since 2000 is 214. We expect home sales to continue dropping for the next two months.

Sales of single-family, re-sale homes tanked in April compared to last year. I think we all expected this amidst the Covid-19 pandemic. Home sales were down 55.3%. There were 101 homes sold in San Francisco last month. The average since 2000 is 214. We expect home sales to continue dropping for the next two months.

A comprehensive summary of the housing market in Southwest California where we're enjoying the strongest Seller's market in years in July. Sales posted their 2nd highest month in the past decade, up 17% over June and up 11% over last July. Median prices continued to climb as well, advancing 6% year-to-date. We are now measuring inventory of homes for sale in weeks, not months.
Annie Williams Real Estate Report - November 2020Jon Weaver
Home Sales Continue to Rise
Sales of single-family, re-sale homes rose again in October, gaining 10.5% year-over-year. They were up 22% from September. There were 283 homes sold in San Francisco last month. The average since 2000 is 214. Year-to-date, home sales are down 7.2%. Condo sales are down 14.4%.
Annie Williams Market Trends March-April 2015Jon Weaver
As we’ve mentioned many times, inventory of single-family, re-sale homes, condos and rentals in San Francisco is very low. Fortunately, there are a slew of new buildings in
some stage of planning or construction. At last count, we identified 23 new condo projects around the city. There have been or will shortly be 2,498 new condo/loft units on the market. There are 141 more units in the proposal stage.
This should alleviate some of the pricing pressure in San Francisco.
Annie Williams Market Trends April-May 2015Jon Weaver
After four straight months of year-over-year sales declines, sales of single-family, re-sale homes jumped 6.5% last month. Condo/loft sales, on the other hand, were down
year-over-year, albeit by only 1.6%. Compare that to the previous three out of four months when sales were down by double-digits. Prices of homes and condo/lofts also popped last month, rising by double-digit figures. See below for the full details.
THis is a brief look at how many homes are selling on the North Shore of Chicago - Evanston to Lake Bluff and the Lake (Michigan!) to the west side of Northbrook.
Real estate is a MicroMarket business. That means, some markets will explode while others will languish. Fortunately, we see fairly consistent unit growth in all our communities. Still with the press trumpeting a 12% increase in home prices in April (over last year), I wanted to see exactly what was happening. This is Part 1 - unit growth. Next, I'll post dollar sales - median and average prices.

A wrap-up of our 2021 legislative session with special guests California state Senator Melissa Melendez and U.S. Chamber Western Region V.P. Jennings Immel
14 bills to be reviewed by the SWCLC on 1/25/2021 including: ACA 1, an effort to reduce the 2/3 voting requirement to raise local property taxes; AB 71, an effort to increase California's already highest-in-the-nation tax on corporations; AB 116, an effort to force municipalities to allow residential construction in commercially zoned parcels; and SB 39, an effort to mandate Dept. of Corrections trade information with Office of Unemployment (EDD) to prevent the massive fraud of prisoners collecting pandemic unemployment benefits.
Need help figuring out what to do with the 12 propositions you'll face on your November ballot? Every year the Southwest California legislative Council assigns our members a measure to research and present. The Council debates the issue based on what impact it will have on our business community and recommends a position. As always, we encourage voters to do their own research and to that end we have a much more extensive document available with all the arguments pro and con, what your vote means, and follow the money.
Every year the Southwest California Legislative Council evaluates statewide ballot propositions to determine which might fall within the purview of our strategic initiatives and impact our business members. Council members select a proposition to research and deliver a presentation to the group followed by discussion and a vote to recommend a YES vote, a NO vote, or NO POSITION. Here are the group's recommendation on the 12 measures you'll see on our November ballot.
Detailed information courtesy of BallotPedia.
The legislature in Sacramento is still out but that doesn't change the fact that at some point they'll be back and our business members need our advocacy more than ever. Especially critical when you hear about some of the gut-and-amend bills happening right now like AB 828, which would irreparably harm every landlord in California.
During this time of crisis does it really make sense to deprive laid off California workers of an opportunity to make a living as temporary, gig economy workers? The Wall Street Journal has praised the gig economy as being a 'rescue' for many in this time of widespread need with companies like Uber, Lyft, GrubHub, Postmates and Uber Eats providing much needed delivery options for housebound residents as well as a supplemental source of income for laid off workers. Please encourage our Governor to do the right thing and SUSPEND enforcement of this deeply flawed measure at least for the duration of this crisis.

Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Mid-year housing report
1. The recession might be over,
but we’re not necessarily over the recession.
“It’s been more than seven years since the housing market last experienced the increase
that we saw in May, with indications that the summer months will continue to see
significant gains. As we approach the half-way point of 2013, home prices continue to
respond positively to the reduction in home inventory thus far,” according to Mark
Fleming, Chief Economist for CoreLogic, a leading property information and analytics firm.
Indeed by CoreLogic’s HPI calculations, 97 of the largest metropolitan areas in the country
posted year over year increases with 33 metro areas showing double digit increases. For
May, Nevada posted the highest year-over-year home price appreciation at 26%, with
California 2nd at 20.2%, Arizona coming in at 16.9%, Hawaii at 16.1% and Oregon
rounding out the top 5 with 15.5%. Just two states posted year-over-year price declines,
Alabama at -0.1% and Delaware at -0.6%. At 18%, the Riverside/San Bernardino/Ontario
metropolitan area was 3rd in the nation for appreciation, just behind Phoenix at 18.3%
and LA/Long Beach at 19.8%.
Utilizing their own proprietary analytics, Case-Shiller reports the nationwide housing price
index up 10.2%, with their select 20 city index up 12.5%.
Whether by a little or a lot, it would appear the housing market is finally out of the
doldrums. We can discuss the myriad reasons this has come about and we can debate
whether it is sustainable and for how long, but for the time being it’s upon us.
Certainly in Southwest California our cities are performing well with the region showing a
22% median price increase over June of 2012. We’ve posted month over month
gains every month this year and our June median of $325,088 for the region is the
highest we’ve recorded since March 2008.
If you were prescient enough to buy a home in April of 2009, when our prices troughed at
$210,317, you’ve seen your property value appreciate 35%. That appreciation in value is
one reason foreclosure filings are down nearly 55% from a year ago and why the
inventory of bank owned homes is down some 35% across the state.
Unfortunately if you bought earlier, like when we peaked in March 2007 at $508,559,
you’re still 36% underwater but getting better. At $416,271, Temecula has made back
slightly more than half their equity loss ($575,935 in 6/06 - $263,118 in 1/09) and the
other cities are moving up as well.
How long can this drive continue? Well, there is still significant pent-up demand, interest
rates, though climbing, are still attractively low and a lack of inventory is driving a sellers
market. But national uncertainty over tax reform, healthcare and other issues are serving
to keep the jobs market from flourishing and until employment improves, we won’t see
the full potential of this housing market. In fact, could see some dampening of demand if
economic concerns linger.

Remember just a few short years ago when banks ruled the market? When we had a 22 month
inventory of homes for sale and 92% of those were foreclosures? When I suggested that if we
could only reduce that percentage of distressed homes to under 50% or maybe 30%, we
would be back to a ‘normal market’?
Well, we’re there. Distressed properties made up just 12% of the active market last month and
24% of solds. Yet the market is far from normal – or maybe it’s just California normal – which is
certainly different from normal in most places.
From my January 2010 report to you, Murrieta had 387 bank owned homes, Temecula had
276 and Lake Elsinore had 333. Today those numbers are 5, 11 and 6.
Normal? I can tell you where the market has been and where it is today. But where it’s going? I
don’t make nearly enough to know that.
Not only is our median price up 22% over last year, it’s up 19% just since January.
If the 2nd half of the year is as crazy as the 1st half…

Inventory
2010 2011 2012 2013
Some other numbers are also heading in the right direction. Sales are holding steady, off
8% from last June but the highest volume yet for 2013. Keeping resale demand in the
700 range is a healthy target for this region given the paucity of inventory. Inventory
jumped 22% to its highest level since last June, which bumped available inventory to 1.3
months from 1.1. Absorption also blessedly dropped from an average of 2.5 homes sold
for every new listing to 1.6, the lowest level since March of last year. Still troubling but
seemingly trending positively for the market.

8. The Last Word…
Two items for your consideration today – the first being the proposed re-instatement of
Prop 90 for Riverside County. Prop 90 is a constitutional amendment that allows senior
citizens, under certain circumstances, to transfer a property’s base tax value from an
existing residence sold in one county to a replacement residence in another county –
usually resulting in substantial tax savings. Riverside County offered Prop 90 until 1995
when it allowed the measure to sunset based on specious arguments from the
Recorder/Assessor at the time. Currently 8 other counties offer this incentive for seniors
including our neighbors in LA, Orange and San Diego. This gives them a decided
advantage in attracting more fiscally stable senior home buyers with disposable income.
Supervisors Kevin Jeffries and John Benoit have re-introduced the measure as a
way to encourage seniors to consider Riverside County. I have attached a Q & A for you
and would encourage you individually as well as your city to consider adding your
support to the measure. The County Auditor/Controller has conducted a cost analysis
(based on 1995 data) that shows the county (and subsidiary agencies including cities)
could lose as much as $4.7 million annually from lower tax assessments on these homes
(your City Manager has a copy of that). Not included in that analysis was data from a
Harvard Center for Housing study or studies from both the National and California
Association of Realtors® showing that Riverside County could also benefit by gaining
almost $220,000,000 in economic benefits and 1,150 new jobs. Our current
Assessor/Recorder Larry Ward is a supporter of the measure.
A decision by the Supervisors has been delayed until July 30 to allow for public input on
the issue. Supervisor Stone is currently the only Supervisor to have stated opposition.
I indicated on Page 1 that there are still several items that have the potential to derail
the current housing recovery including tax reform, lack of job growth and economic
uncertainty. In California one additional item that is having a deleterious impact is the
result of last years Homeowners Bill of Rights, a measure championed by Attorney
General Kamala Harris and passed with great fanfare by a Democratic majority in
Sacramento.
Realtors® opposed the measure and decried the overreaching knee-jerk elements of the
bill warning that the unintended consequences could negatively impact our market in
ways similar to that of a bill passed in Nevada the previous year. We managed to effect
a few changes but it passed substantively unchanged and we are now left to deal with
those anticipated and unanticipated consequences.
One immediate impact has been on the rate of banks foreclosing on properties which,
on the one hand has been positive but on the other hand has significantly reduced
inventories while not addressing the underlying problem. There are still numbers of
vacant homes and homeowners who have not made a payment for years – the so-called
‘shadow inventory’, that will need to be dealt with at some point. But due to the
potential for criminal charges being brought for any mis-step by the bank during the
foreclosure process, the tap has been turned off since last November.
The Wall Street Journal recently carried a front page article ‘Foreclosure Squeeze Crimps
Vegas Market’ detailing the negative impact the bill has had on the Nevada housing
market after being in place for 2 years. We are seeing the same results in California
after just a few months. Is it enough to derail the housing recovery? No, but it is one of
the issues contributing to the inventory shortage and the unsustainable run-up in prices
we are seeing throughout our market.
9. Restore Prop 90
What is Proposition 90?
Proposition 90 is constitutional amendments passed by California voters that provides property tax
relief for persons aged 55 and over. It allows these persons, under certain conditions, to transfer a
property's base year value from an existing residence in one county to a replacement residence in
another county. The provisions of Propositions 90 may result in substantial tax savings since it allows
the adjusted base year value of the original (sold) property to be transferred to the newly purchased or
constructed home if eligibility requirements are met. One critical requirement is that the county where
the new home is being purchased or constructed must allow Proposition 90 transfers. A separate
amendment, authorized by Proposition 60, allows similar property value transfers between properties
within a county.
Detailed information and answers to Frequently Asked Questions about Proposition 60 and 90 are
available from the California Board of Equalization at:
http://www.boe.ca.gov/proptaxes/faqs/propositions60_90.htm#1
Is Proposition 90 in effect in Riverside County?
Not at the present time. Proposition 90 transfers were permitted in Riverside County until 1995 but the
law allowing them was not renewed.
Will Proposition 90 be reauthorized in Riverside County?
The Riverside County Board of Supervisors will conduct a public hearing on that question on
July 30, 2013 and will vote at the conclusion of that hearing on a proposed ordinance, Ordinance 920, to
extend Proposition 90 for five years.
Why wouldn’t the Supervisors vote to approve Proposition 90?
The County Auditor Controller has conducted a cost analysis of Proposition 90 which concluded that
public agencies in the county could lose up to $4.7 Million annually from the lower assessments on
homes purchased through Proposition 90. Supervisor Stone is currently the only Supervisor with a
stated opposition to the measure.
10. Prop 90 would cause a little property tax loss but aren’t there economic benefits for the county from the
new residents who would move to Riverside County?
Yes. A study conducted jointly by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the Harvard Center for Housing Studies
and the National Association of REALTORS®, updated in March 2013, found that every new home sale in
California produced approximately $95,000 in local economic benefits. Those benefits derive from all the
goods and services typically associated with a home purchased and the income earned by those who sell the
good and perform the services. Other studies show that one permanent job is created from every two home
sales. The Auditor Controller estimates that 2300 home sales per year in Riverside County would come under
Proposition 90. Applying the Harvard/NAR formula means that by authorizing Prop 90 our county gains
almost $220,000,000 in economic benefits and potentially 1150 new jobs.
Harvard/NAR Economic Impact of Housing Sale:

activity-california-2013-03.pdf
Home Sale Impact on Job Creation:
http://www.realtor.org/topics/home-ownership-matters/jobs-impact-of-an- existing-home-purchase
Some might argue that the many of those using Prop 90 benefits would have moved to
Riverside anyway so Prop 90 is just a giveaway.
The California Association of REALTOR® conducted a survey that found that at least 52% of those using Prop
90 in other counties based their purchase decision primarily on the availability of Proposition 90 tax benefits.
Again applying the Harvard/NAR economic benefit formula, Riverside County would annually reap over
$114,000,000 in benefit and almost 600 permanent jobs just from those whose primary reason for choosing
Riverside County over another county is the existence of Prop 90.
Do any other counties allow Prop 90?
Yes, eight other counties currently allow Prop 90 assessment transfers. Most importantly, our neighbor
counties of Los Angles, San Diego and Orange, all provide Prop 90 benefits, giving them an edge in the
competition to attract new permanent residents.
What can I do to help assure the passage of Ordinance 920 to allow Proposition 90 benefits in Riverside
County?
1. Email, call or write your Riverside County Supervisor. Here’s a link to their contact information

RESTORE PROPOSTION 90
A petition supporting proposed Riverside County Ordinance 920.
Riverside County Supervisors:
The undersigned, residents and voters in Riverside County, urge you to vote YES on Proposed Ordinance 920 when it comes
before you for a vote. This measure would authorize one-time, inter-county transfers of property assessments to Riverside
County pursuant to the California Constitution as amended by Proposition 90. Under Proposition 90, counties may allow 55+
primary home purchasers to transfer their property tax base value once from one county to another.
By restoring Proposition 90 benefits, Riverside County will encourage thousands of 55+ home buyers to choose Riverside
County for their new, permanent home. And, Riverside County will annually gain over $100 Million in economic benefits,
create over 1,000 jobs and attract thousands of new residents who contribute much to their neighborhoods and demand little from
government.
Supervisors, Please vote Yes on Proposed Ordinance 920 to authorize Proposition 90 transfers in Riverside County

12. Riverside County Board of Supervisors
4080 Lemon Street
Riverside, California 92501
Re: Proposed Ordinance 920: Authorizing Proposition 90, inter-
county property assessment transfers.
Dear Supervisor:
I write to express my support for proposed Ordinance 920. This
important measure would authorize 55+ home buyers to purchase a
home in our county and transfer their property tax base from their
prior residence in another county as allowed by the California
Constitution (Proposition 90).
Studies by the Harvard Center for Housing Studies and the National
Association of REALTORS® show that every home purchase generates
nearly $95,000.00 in local economic benefits. Every two sales create
one new permanent job. Applying the Harvard/NAR impact formula to
the County Auditor Controller’s analysis of Ordinance 920,
demonstrates that our county could annually reap over $200,000,000
in economic benefits and gain over 1,000 jobs from the implementation
of Ordinance 920..
Riverside County could gain in other ways from adoption of Ordinance
920. The typical home buyer using Proposition 90 are financially
secure individuals who will become valued, long-term residents of our
community, contributing much to their neighborhoods and imposing
little or no cost on public services. The County’s adoption of
Ordinance 920 provides the classic “Win/Win”. At very small cost in
property tax foregone, the county gains hundreds of million dollars in
economic benefits, potentially thousands of new jobs, no additional
costs and thousands of wonderful new, contributing neighbors.
Please vote to help 55+ home buyers make Riverside County home.
Please vote to grow our county’s economy. Please vote yes on proposed
Ordinance 920 when it comes before you on July 30.
Sincerely,
