Lakeside gets a visit from Santa
On Sunday December 13th. Santa clause made a special visit to the Lakeside Community in Buena Park! The evening was a big hit with many of the residence from the Lakeside Community bringing their children to visit and take photos with Santa Clause at the Community Clubhouse. The residence of Lakeside were kind enough to bring gifts to donate to some children of the Buena Park Boys and Girls Club. I was able to ask a friend to contact the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim organization to donate hats for the kids. The coaches from the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim baseball team including Manager Mike Scoscia and Coaches Mickey Hatcher and Ron Roenicke were kind enough to sign the Angel hats. The hats and the donated gifts will be distributed to the well deserving children from the Boys and Girls Club on Friday. Thanks again to the awesome residence of the Lakeside Community for making the evening with Santa a big hit! A special thanks to Santa Clause, Mike Scoscia, Mickey Hatcher and Ron Roenicke for taking time to make this Christmas special for the kids! Also, a big thanks to the Angels for donating the baseball hats for the kids. Happy Holidays!

Have We Finally Hit Bottom?
It's a question that's relevant to investors in just about any once-hot market that's gone from boom to bust: Have prices finally bottomed out? Or could they be poised for still further declines?
In the Miami-South Dade area of Florida -- ground zero for the worst boom and bust cycle -- prices have actually increased for the third straight month, according to the Case-Shiller Home Price Index.
Pending sales contracts are up, according to the Florida Association of Realtors, and the entire South Florida listed inventory has dropped from 108,000 unsold units in November of 2008 to 70,000 condos, townhouses and single family houses as the end of October 2009, according to realty consulting firm CondoVultures.
Looking at these numbers, you might say: Conditions in one of the most overbuilt local real estate markets in the U.S. are on the upswing.
And some investors agree. One bulk condo buyer reportedly has marked up prices by $300 a square foot more than he paid for his units just months ago. Sounds like the bottom is over.
But there's an alternative view taking shape among some investors: The supposed "bottom" may be nothing more than a temporary plateau, they say, with more declines ahead.
Why? For the same reason that Dr. Laurie Goodman, economist and senior managing director of research for Wall Street's Amherst Securities thinks lots of boot-to-bust metropolitan areas will see price declines in the months ahead: There is a massive 7 million unit "shadow inventory" of delinquent and distressed properties in banks' foreclosure pipelines that haven't been put on the market and haven't yet affected prices.
For instance, in South Florida, lenders expect to take a total of 29,000 units into REO by the end of the year, up 9 percent over 2008, and almost triple the repossessions in 2007, according to Condo Vultures.
When these are finally listed, they're going to be a wet blanket, and depress prices. Goodman forecasts price declines of another 8 to 10 percent in the coming months, just when the conventional wisdom is that we've already seen the worst.
However, Peter Zalewski, head of CondoVultures, says the key to South Florida pricing in the coming year will be location. Condos near or on the water are selling well to investors and second home buyers from the U.S. and abroad.
Demand is likely to keep their prices stable at least.
But in the inland suburban submarkets, which are less attractive to investors and second home buyers, Zalewski sees definite problems -- and vulnerability to further price declines in 2010.
