San Jose News Tidbits
Droves Of Foreigners
With foreign currency lapping the U.S. Dollar many citizens of Canada, Asian, and European countries are buying homes for a great deal. It you don’t believe so check out this story at the San Francisco Chronicle.
The McCullough’s just closed escrow on a 1.3 Million dollar home for $711,000.
I have to say that I hate the fact that the value of the U.S. Dollar is steadily decreasing but thank God someone is buying the homes in The Bay Area and stimulating the economy.
How many people will come overseas to buy homes? Will the stimulation of the economy be any good? We’ll just have to wait and see.
More Rain
It’s yet another gloomy day in San Jose, California. CBS 5 reports that there is going to be more rain over San Jose and The Bay Area. Thankfully, it’s not supposed to be as bad as the one that was over the city Friday and Saturday.
While looking at the CBS Live Doppler it looks to be about a 25 – 35 percent chance of rain. I’d still have the umbrella handy just in case.
Strange and stupid people
A woman who wanted her lovers wife deceased advertised for a killer on Craigslist. CBS 5 reports that Mary Ann offered $5,000 and a work address to anyone that was willing to take the offer.
You can read the full report here.
I just don’t understand it? Did she not think that she was going to get caught? There are thousands of people that visit Craigslist every day. The are thousands of people looking for employment every day and some of them are very honest.
Let’s not forget the fact that police officers and civilians working with the police comb through Craigslist weekly and at times daily to seek out preditors.
