  1. The Peterson Report for May 5, 2023 - Don't believe the Foreclosure Hype

    Don't get me started on real estate headlines today. The sky is not falling, and we are not heading into a foreclosure crisis - unless every single underlying number is wrong on its face. Time to get real. Don't listen to the pretenders.

  2. The Peterson Report - April 14, 2023

    Some mornings I feel an awful lot like Don MacLean in American Pie..."bad news on the doorstep/I couldn't take one more step..." It's no longer worth comparing the current market to the previous markets. At this point, it's a little bit like comparing different eras in MLB; same rules but...

  3. The Peterson Report March 24, 2023

    Where is the spring market headed in Napa & Solano counties? Is it even possible to say? How will the banking collapses affect the real estate market? Here's a link to my walk-a-thon team page: https://linktr.ee/rfpetersonrealtor

  4. The Peterson Report March 19, 2023

    I've been beating up on the Fed a bit lately, but the truth is the market is doing pretty well, all things considered. There are still buyers for homes. There appears to be both a price floor and a price ceiling. That might not be a bad spot to be in at the moment.

  5. The Peterson Report - February 17, 2023

    Demand from buyers is exceeding inventory and low inventory is going to make for a strong spring selling season. Also, the Fed needs to stop raising rates.

  6. The Peterson Report for February 3, 2023

    What's up with interest rates? I'm all in on a bull real estate market this spring...American Canyon is unhappy with the Napa Cove Apartments

  7. The Peterson Report for January 27, 2023

    The Hill ran an article at the beginning of the week titled - more or less - Americans surveyed don't know sh*t about real estate. Ya think? Debunking the idea that there will be another crash (even if we're in a bubble) and that mortgage rates haven't been this high ever...or at least in the…

  8. The Peterson Report for January 20, 2023

    Happy Lunar New Year! It is the year of the rabbit. Here's to politeness making a comeback. I'm making a bold prediction for 2023 and a follow up on my talk about house hacking (aka having a roommate).

  9. What is a Professional?

    2023 is going to be the year of the professional. But what does that mean, really? How do you know if someone is a professional?

  10. The Peterson Report for December 9, 2022

    Today is National Salesperson Day. Thank you to all of the professional salespeople who give their time to their clients and communities.

  11. The Peterson Report for November 18, 2022

    Go Bears 🐻, beat the Cardinal 🌲! This weekend marks the 40th Anniversary of The Play. Sac State is the only team west of the Rockies (I think) in the top 25 for the FCS, and it's time for Up Valley to get serious about land use. All that and a new home marketplace is coming to a browser near you.

  12. The Peterson Report

    This week’s headlines include the fed raising rates, Redfin is helping to destroy all that is sacred, and - according to the NY Times - real estate is going to hell in a hand basket. NY Times Article on housing market Fed raises short term interest rates 86% of economists expect a down turn...and…

  13. Bon Mots for October 28, 2022

    I've been under the weather and so I'm a little more acerbic than usual. This week I'm taking a look at the Park City, UT CC vote on Pacaso, why aren't developers building more starter homes, and more!

  14. October 21, 2022 Bon Mots

    I (try to) write a weekly, light-hearted blog on what's going on in real estate. It's a labor of love...as well as a vanity project. There's more that I can do with it and so I'm trying something new. No reason no to use existing resources. Maybe, for once, I'll find the consistency that I've…

  15. Housing Crunch

    51% of Californians that responded to a Berkeley Institute of Graduate Studies survey say that the housing crunch is so bad that we need the State to fix it.

  16. $1B to Figh Homelessness

    The Governor asked for - and received - $1B for programs to combat homelessness in California. Hear my take on it.
