LOVE your market report, Jane!  And I don't mean the actual numbers...well, yes, I do actually love those numbers...but I really, really love the way the info is presented. Great info, easy to read and understand, no superfluous details. May I copy it?  Pretty please? -- Tanya in Montreal

Jane, just show me pictures...I know I can't afford any of them, so again, just beautiful pictures from your market will do.

Jane - great information for your buyers and sellers. I love Sanata Monica, and you can see whay the prices have remained fairly high despite the downturn.

Jeff, if you love the beach, then, if you can get into it, Santa Monica is the best.  Malibu is way to isolated and if PCH shuts down that's it.  You are stuck.  Plus there is so much more to do in S.M.  Thanks for dropping by and thanks for allowing me to "copy" your reports.
