Happy New Year's Eve!



This year has been....____________. Fill in the blank for your most relevant description. I am sure we are all very glad to wrap up 2008. Home prices have dropped dramatically, the economy is hurting, friends have been laid off, bailouts, bank closures, investment houses disappeared, etc. etc. etc. Yuck!

And then I look at the things that I cherish. My kids, Max & Vivienne, now 10 years old. My lovely "significant other" with a smile that won't quit. My mom, grandma and other family members. My friends, coworkers, and the far flung supporters of my life and our community (from local to global). These "assets" never lose their value. In fact, they become more precious every day. I hope you have wonderful people in your life too.

It's time to be thankful for what we have and to look forward to what 2009 will bring. I wish you all a wonderful evening to wrap up this year and an awesome new year. May it be the best you can hope for. Happy New Years:-)

Need a Lender For Your Rental Properties

Many investors are not able to take advantage of this great rental investment market. The reason is an arbitrary new rule that many banks have imposed. Most lenders are not making new loans to borrowers that have 4 mortgages over their whole portfolio. Heck, I have some clients with 40+ mortgages. All of those loans were taken out before this credit clamp down. We have researched and have found a good lender who is willing to lend with no limit on the number of loans. Yes, they are strict as to cash flow, debt to income, FICO, etc. And for a strong investor, this lender is ready to step up.

The interest rates would be about 5.5% full adjusted. Please call or email me and I can set you up with our great loan broker who has access to this lender.

Mervyn's Bankruptcy Leases Purchased by Kohl's & Forever 21







Good locations trump bad economic times.



I'm leading with the moral of the story. I know that is bass ackward. Although this market is somewhat that way too. So, it makes sense!

Have you seen a Forever 21 store? I have, they do not look like a company that would set up shop in a 80,000 square foot space recently occupied by Mervyn's. Maybe they will take a front corner section and install ice skating or a BMX park in the other 70,000 square feet. Now to be news worthy, F21 expects to widen their product line offerings and step up to a big box presence. I am NOT going to that new store with my daughter anytime soon.

Kohl's I understand. They were head to head competitors with Mervyn's. Although, may I ask, where was Target in this bidding?

The bankruptcy auction of these spaces yielded interesting results. F21 bid on some 70 Mervyn's locations. They walked away with 15. Other bidders were real estate investors. They undoubtedly won some spaces. Which probably will then be offered to the Kohl's and Forever 21 companies.

The auctions were oversubscribed because there was good value in the under- market leases that Mervyn's controlled. As in a previous posting, some of these spaces were at $.20 per foot! Bankruptcies gives us a good vantage point on real estate. Kmart went through the same process years ago. Some sites were swooped up (as in Kohl's first entry into the Bay Area) and other sites sit vacant in the middle of long stretches of highway from here to nowhere. Yes, that is why I like in-fill locations in strong metros. (Hmmm....is that the moral of the story?)

Santana Row Bank REO for Sale

The Margo building has a great opportunity for a 1 bedroom + den loft unit facing the East Foothills. 1,099 square feet, nice kitchen, very good condition. The parking at the Margo building is preferred over the DeForest building because you have direct elevator access to your floor from the garage. This unit is now bank owned and a very good value at $499,900. Now at this price, I expect over asking price offers which is very common these days on bank REOs. The banks or their listing agents now understand that sub-market pricing brings them fast sales. Call me to tour this great unit.

Happy Thanksgiving - Time to Remember and be Grateful

After a year of wonder, a year of gut-wrenching markets, trials, tribulations and more.... please everyone take the time to reflect and be grateful for what we have. Look around. Sometimes they don't appear evident - There are people who care about you, people who support you, carry you through the hard times, sometimes even without recognition. Thank the guy who cleans your office, your mailman, the receptionist at the front desk (as nutty as Corrine may be!) - thank your parents (I wish they are still alive) your siblings, your children, friends and any other loved one, here or there, alive or passed on. All these people make up the world that YOU live in. Everyone needs a hug and a short word of acknowledgement. Time to smile on them as they have been smiling on you this whole year. So, hold hands this Thanksgiving and be happy to be here, amidst all that we have.

If you want to give back in a great way today - please click on the link for Team in Training to help in the cure for Blood Cancers: http://pages.teamintraining.org/sj/lavatri09/jpham My good friend is running a triathlon to A. have a better butt and B. to support the research. Please give what you can. Thanks All!!! :-)

Mervyn's Bankruptcy Leases for Sale


One of Mervyn's greatest assets is the leaseholds it has in prime retail locations in Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico and Texas.

The fast approaching bid deadline is currently scheduled for December 5, 2008. For sale are 154 leases in the 6 states. A couple Bay Area leases are highlighted below:


375 N. Capitol, San Jose, 70,000 sqft, through 2020, rent $9.85 per year

749 E. Calaveras Blvd, Milpitas, 75,000 sqft, through 2041, rent $18.51 per year

880 Mowry Ave, Newark, 82,000 sqft, through 2049, rent $12.23 per year
