I live in La Habra Heights, CA. The economy here is SoCal still amazes me! My neighbor put his 3000 square foot home up for sale 5 days ago for $650,000 and it sold already!

We, in fact, put our home up for sale and people are coming by with great interest! We bought the home 40 months ago for $500,000 and are asking $849,000.

Eventhough logic tells me we are going to hit a deflationary period in R.E. the people in SoCal do not think this is a reality!

In addition, manufacturing (plastics) have been down and out for about two years. However, machine sales seem to be picking up. We own a small sales and service company in the industry and can see a reasonable bounce.


In conclusion, the SoCal region seems to be giving positive signals. Or, could this be the final blow-off top!
