Susan Getz San Francisco Real Estate Agent

A must see movie!

Which cities get the most sunny days? Las Vegas has 85% sunny days, followed by Los Angeles 73%, Honolulu 71%, Miami 70%, Denver 69%, San Diego 68%, San Francisco 66%, Dallas 61%, Austin 60%, Boston and New York 58%.

One with Everything.

DID YOU KNOW? A growing tech sector fuels real estate shortages - and pricing - everywhere: Shenzhen, China’s answer to Silicon Valley has grown to a 22 million person mega-city in four decades, attracting up to 500,000 new arrivals each year. The boom has led to the highest property prices and lowest home ownership rates in China, a warning for the country’s other growing cities. The average two-bedroom unit now sells for about $900,000, in a city with per capita income of just $20,000. (Bloomberg) https://youtu.be/lcrfk6OoZIw

DID YOU KNOW? In an effort to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions, Massachusetts last week announced a mandate that all new cars sold in the state must be electric by 2035. The Commonwealth joins California in prohibiting new gas and diesel vehicle salesbecoming only the second state to implement such sanctions. Dozens of new electric car and truck options will emerge this year......imagine super-quiet roads and highways with zero emissions.....(PC MAG)

DID YOU KNOW? For the first time in 30 years, London’s population is falling. Coronavirus combined with BREXIT has stemmed the flow of migrants into the capital and created new reasons for residents to depart. Since the outbreak of the pandemic, almost 700,000 foreign-born residents may have left the city....about 8% of the population.

DID YOU KNOW? Mortgage applications to purchase a home jumped 9% last week from the previous week and were 28% higher annually, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. Applications to refinance a home loan fell 5% for the week, but were an impressive 102% higher than a year ago. (CNBC)

What do you think about this?

DID YOU KNOW? Fueled by low interest rates and a historic housing shortage, California’s median home price in September reached $712,430, closing out four straight months of record highs. (NY TIMES)

DID YOU KNOW? Average asking prices in Milan this September were $525/sf, up 6% from January this year and a rise of 29% since 2016. Since 2017, house prices in Milan have shot up, driven by the city’s increasing appeal to wealthy international buyers who have been lured by relatively low property prices and a new flat tax regime for rich foreigners.....(FT)

DID YOU KNOW? Many industry observers believe mortgage rates will remain below 3% in 2021 as the Fed uses low rates to combat the economic effects of the COVID. If you think that's low, Denmark is offering 20-year mortgages at 0%....

I love Dahlias and this painting!

I love LATIMES.com - so true. "Built-in shelving for displaying books or other collections can have as much or more impact on a room as paint, furniture or artwork. Katie Martinez, a San Francisco-based interior designer, says that is because a good built-in can accomplish all of those things simultaneously."

The strangest thought came to me on this morning As I awoke to greet the coming dawn The sun was hardly peaking through the garden It felt that with everything I was one... [Chorus] Then I wished that I could come back as a flower As a flower As a flower How I wished that I could come back as a flower As a flower To spread the sweetness of love[x2] [Verse 2] The dew had finished making love to many A rainbow smelling sweet was in the air I envied all the silence I saw growing So unmoved by things outside of themselves [Chorus][x3] [Outro] Sweetness of love[x2] -Stevie Wonder The Secret Life of Plants.

This explains a great deal about why I love trees and forests.

Excellent extraordinary video #intangibles #stuff
