    The only sure thing in life is change, and a New Year means changes to everything, including the real esate market. Interest rate flucuations, seasonal downturns and ongoing demand for real estate have mixed together to make the housing market in San Diego look pretty stable. Especially after the roller coaster of recent years.    Below you can see the housing reports for both this month and last month. The biggest difference being that more people are ready to sell now that the holidays have passed and they're fullfilling their new year resolitions to finally downsize, or upsize, or move for whatever good reason, so more houses are the market. But, please note, demand is still high as well.    What change are you gong to make this year?    Whether you're considering buying or selling, give me a call so we can talk about your realistic options in our unique housing market.    If you know anyone who might be interested in receiving this market update every month, please have

You might just succeed!    If your goals involve real estate, I'm here to help!    February - Ponder this,  “What could we accomplish if we knew we could not fail?” – Eleanor Roosevelt - Something about the ambition of January resolutions makes me sad about the reality of change. February is a month of hope - if I'm still doing the thing I resolved to do, then I am stronger and better for my effort. I feel like I can't fail now!   As always, I am here for you, your family, and friends.   Your Forever Agent,    Hope Leitner, CRS, CalDRE #01874321 Hope Opens Doors   Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, California Properties Christie D.
