Tomorrow's stage of the Amgen Tour of California will pass through downtown Davis on its way to Sacramento. Downtown will have streets closed off temporarily to allow the riders a clear path through town. It is exciting to see a world-class bike race pass by your office. Tomorrow's race will start in Santa Rosa and the riders will race all the way to Downtown Sacramento, ending at the State Capitol.

Michael Lyon, CEO of Lyon Real Estate was interviewed by Sacramento's Fox 40 TV about the foreclosure market in Natomas and the greater Sacramento market. He is predicting based on economic data, a spike in foreclosed properties to enter the market this summer. Now is a good time to get educated about what is happening in the greater Sacramento Real Estate market and be ready to act when the time is right for you. Currently in the greater Sacramento region over 50% of the available homes for sale are either short sales or bank owned/foreclosed properties. There currently are bank owned homes that are priced very attractively as the banks do not wish to hold onto properties.

My family and I chose to live in Davis because it has a great community feel. Davis has retained a feeling of a small town while at the same time, primarily due to the University is an innovative and dynamic technology center with an agricultural base. Some of the many reasons to live in Davis include the farmer's market, a wonderful downtown, renowned schools, miles of walking and biking trails, the Mondavi center as well as the University of California at Davis.
If you are thinking about moving to Davis, I would be happy to show you why this is such a great community.
