brea homes: IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT! - 05/28/07 06:25 AM
As you can imagine, it was a glorious sight for us all. 
I took this photo yesterday as I stood at the back of the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, California. It's a sight I've seen many times and yet I can tell you as a proud American it continues to move me each and every time.
The flag is 90 feet tall at is hangs majestically nearing the top of of the cathedral. You can's help but feel a huge lump in your throat and pride in your heart as you experience the Battle Hymn of the Replubic as it's elevated.

brea homes: Something Old...Yet New Once Again? - 05/19/07 08:06 PM
What on earth could this be? A  history lesson for some, and a reminder of years gone by for others?  It was a big announcement...
Not sure, some may be too young to know, although (as a geezer) it was like a flash-back-in-time, bringing a smile to my face and possibly to others?     
So what's the big deal,...what's the  big announcement?  It's a "new drive-in- theater"  and oh my gosh, how lucky can we get, it happens to be in the heart of The OC.  
For some, a drive-in-movie theater is a part of history from the 50's, 60's and 70's. Yet … (12 comments)

brea homes: Your Money’s Worth ~ Or How to Avoid Costly Mistakes on Home Improvements. - 05/17/07 07:34 PM
 
As a long-time Broker and Realtor I'm often asked about the value of home improvements. And of course the answer is usually it "depends". It can depend on many different factors including geography.  Meaning your location, where you live in the U.S.  Improvements may be more applicable for one part of the country as opposed to another.
Also, evaluate the cost of improvements vs. the overall value of your home. You definitely wouldn't want to over-improve your home for the neighborhood, that is unless you're absolutely positive you will remain in the home for the economic life of the improvements, and that … (10 comments)

On a recent trip to Northern Arkansas I visited the town of Fort Smith located at the Arkansas River which separates this state from Oklahoma.  Our trip was memorable for me in many ways. Fort Smith is my birthplace and home to my Mother's family for years.  My family left Arkansas for California over 50 years ago, so my only memory is a couple of visits to family members and hearing the many stories of family.
 
My trip was shared with wonderful friends.  I'm sharing some of the sights we experienced.

brea homes: Going the distance in real estate? - 03/05/07 03:04 PM
Yesterday I ran in the L.A. Marathon.  Finishing a marathon can be a fun event. As with life, and in real estate, for me it's about the experience.  This year with a brand new course, and 26,000 participants. 
We jogged though the best and the worst of L.A. neighborhoods. In addition we passed some of the cities famous landmarks.
 As much as I loved seeing the finish line after pounding the payment for hours, it's the journey that is the real payoff.  This year I took some photos along the way.
The goal, to always finish, period, even if I have … (8 comments)
