RARE OPPORTUNITY:

- Rare house w/ panoramic views AND river frontage

- Perfect for possible bonus depreciation & huge tax write-off against W2 income.

Houses with panoramic, gorgeous views and access to a natural water source tend to retain value no matter what the real estate market situation is.

This house checks all the boxes:

1. ✅ Amazing Panoramic views
2. ✅River frontage
3. ✅Has three levels, possibly split the house into two or maybe three units. Potential of increasing both value of the house after conversion & increasing rental cash flow.
4. ✅Potential of either short-term rental &/or long-term rental
5. ✅Possible substantial first-year write-off through a cost segregation study & bonus depreciation around 25% of purchase price against W2 income. (I'm not a CPA, but I can introduce you to one who deals with cost segregation studies)
6. ✅ Only about ~1 hour from Tracy/Mountain House. Majority of properties like this are atleast 2 hours away

If you’re interested, feel free to reach out and we can discuss more in detail.

Quick market pulse today! The stock market is seeing tech under pressure. Tesla, Nvidia, and Oracle are all down due to cautious AI spending and slower growth. Meanwhile, sectors like insurance are having a strong day. On the mortgage front, 30-year fixed rates are stable around 6.1% to 6.2%. Forecasts see them staying in this range over the next month, barring surprises. Watching inflation and jobs data closely! Let’s see how the next few weeks play out.

Don't try to time the market, chances are, you'll lose. Buy a good deal today if you're thinking of a long term investment,

The "Don't Tax the American Dream Act" proposes to eliminate capital gains tax on primary home sales, aiming to increase housing supply. It’s still just a bill, not law.

Next steps:

Congressional committees review and debate.

House of Representatives votes.

Senate votes.

If both pass, President signs (or vetoes).

December 2025 Pending Home Sales – Key Numbers

Pending home sales dropped sharply in December, down 9.3% from November, much larger than expected and one of the steepest monthly declines.

Year-over-year pending sales also fell by about 3.0% compared with December 2024.

The index level fell to around 71.8, indicating contract signings are well below long-term norms.

Regional Results

Northeast: –11.0% m/m, –3.6% y/y.

Midwest: –14.9% m/m, –9.8% y/y (biggest regional declines).

South: –4.0% m/m, +2.0% y/y (only region with annual gain).

West: –13.3% m/m, –5.1% y/y.

Market Conditions & Causes

Inventory of homes for sale remains very low, roughly 1.18 million active listings, tied for the lowest level of 2025.

New listings didn’t keep pace with closings, dampening buyer enthusiasm due to limited options.

Chief economist Lawrence Yun noted that the housing market “is not out of the woods yet” and that slower contract activity may reflect a market pause rather than another uptrend yet.

Realtor Confidence & Survey Insights

Time on market increased: Median days on market rose compared with last month and last year.

First-time buyer share dipped slightly, while cash and investor purchases ticked differently than year-ago levels.

More Realtors now expect buyer and seller traffic increases over the next three months compared with last month’s sentiment.

New Federal Mortgage Fee Policy, Quick Facts

• FHFA Federal Housing Finance Agency changed certain loan fees on mortgages backed by Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac
• Some lower-credit buyers may see lower fees
• Some higher-credit buyers may see higher fees

This does NOT affect you if:
• You already have a mortgage
• Your loan is not through Fannie or Freddie

This MAY affect you if:
• You are buying
• You are refinancing
• You’re using a conventional loan

• Mortgage pricing is already complex, the real impact depends on your specific numbers, not headlines.

If you’re planning to buy and want to see how this actually affects you, feel free to message me.
