Montecito Connection: January – February 2017

January 3, 2017 by Scott Williams

Montecito 2016 Market Review The year 2016 will go down as a good market in Montecito. Still, prices have paused in their upwards move that had lasted from 2012 to 2015. We are at a moment when the market is hesitating. Is it going to pick-up again? We are not quite sure. We are watching the market very closely to see if there will be a resurgence with the new year. Montecito prices, over the Continue Reading about Montecito Connection: January – February 2017

Trumponomics: the 2017 Economy

January 2, 2017 by Scott Williams

by Mark Schniepp • January 2, 2017 With the election decided, what can you expect in 2017? In the November newsletter, I widely assumed, as did the rest of America, that Clinton would prevail on election day.

Montecito Connection: Time to Add On or Move?

October 24, 2016 by Scott Williams

My Montecito clients have a dilemma. I sold them their “dream” home on a two-acre hilltop in the beautiful neighborhood of Ennisbrook in 2014. Is this the home where they want to stay? That is the question. After their youngest of four children left home for college, they were looking for adventure as empty-nesters and decided to make the move to the Santa Barbara area from Indianapolis, Continue Reading about Montecito Connection: Time to Add On or Move?
