Cycling in Marin: McGuire Team Back in the Mix

THEY SAY there's one way to make a small fortune in cycling. You start with a large fortune.

Mill Valley's Charles Moore knows that harsh reality better than most in his sport. As President and CEO of McGuire Real Estate, Moore was the driving force behind the Marin-based McGuire Cycling Team. Over the course of six seasons his riders won races, stood on podiums and represented his company at events across America.

But two years ago, when the global economy tanked and the real estate bubble burst, Moore could not longer justify spending his company's money on something as seemingly frivolous as a bike team. Not when he was cutting back on staff and cutting corners to keep his real estate business in the black.

Now, after a two-year absence on the cycling circuit, the McGuire team is back. Not as big and bold as before, but still contending, still winning and still representing the McGuire name on the roads and in the races...

Walk This Way with Charlie Moore

Home values have held up better in San Francisco than throughout most of the state, or even most of the Bay Area. In many high priced markets, home values went into free fall following last year’s credit crisis, but San Francisco, with some of the highest home prices in the nation, has experienced a milder decline.

This is partly the result of San Francisco’s geography and politics, both of which have historically prevented the cyclical building booms that create oversupply when housing markets turn weak. Nor does it hurt that San Francisco always rates among the nation’s most livable cities. But, in addition to its beautiful views and mild weather—highly prized for a long time—San Francisco is abundantly possessed of an asset whose value has been increasingly recognized in the past decade: walkability...

NorCal median home price rises nearly 7 percent

SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- A tracking firm says the median home price in Northern California jumped nearly 7 percent last month from September.

Industry tracker DataQuick says the market may be going through a sustained recovery.

"I do notice a renewed sense of faith in buyers. Although they're moving cautiously, there's still action in the market," said San Francisco realtor Robert Merryman. "There's an indication that lenders have slowed down the foreclosure process because they feel foreclosing is driving down the values of the homes on the market."
