I read the most intersting article today in Castanet about the US housing market.
http://www.castanet.net/news/World/64933/A-bipolar-housing-market In the good ol’ motorcity, Detroit Michigan, the rich are standing in line to purchase high end waterfront mansions while 15 minutes away, a single family home with 3 beds sold for $6000.00 Apparently there are 2 housing markets, one for the wealthy and one for everyone else! Almost a quarter of the US owes more then their home is worth, another quarter has less then 20% equity in their home and this is stagering, almost half couldn’t get a mortgage today! While wondering through the Detroit airport the writing on the wall as well as the PA system is now in Chinese well as English. Looks like the auto industry is regaining some lost footing! Hopefully the housing market for Joe and Susie Public will follow suit.

I was reading an article from Wine Access magazine http://www.wineaccess.ca/articles/item/ivwa-2011-top-25-killer-values about their top 25 killer value international wines. I must agree there are some fantastic wines on their list! They release a new recommendation everyday. Check out the article and see if you agree and stock up your cellar on their top picks! They release a new recommendation everyday. I know I will. Happy shopping!

Watch out for revolving postal strikes! Vernon is on the picket lines at 11:30 pm tonight for 24 hours. Make sure you call all your utility and credit card companies. They are not forgiving and still expect interest and penalties. Business can be done on-line so set up your accounts so you can pay on-line so you don’t incur extra charges.

It is finally looking up to be a fantastic weekend in the Sunny Okanagan. I will be hiking, enjoying a local vintage, taking in a sunset and selling houses. I have appointments with clients coming in from out of town looking for a home with a pool. It has the makings of being a perfect summer weekend!
