March sales volume for homes in Campbell is 20.67% higher than March of last year.
So, what do you think? Is the worst over? Right now sales prices mirror sales prices of 2002-2003. How quick do you think the recovery will be? Will we get back to 2007 prices in the next 5 years?

Drama queen alert! Sjpd ain’t comin’!

If you cry wolf too many times, the people aren’t going to help you when you really need it.
What Aesop knew 1500 years ago, the San Jose Police Department just figured out: The SJPD will no longer respond to alarm calls, because they are a waste of time and cost San Jose residents $662,000/year.
Every day I walk by a car who’s alarm is going off and no one even notices. We know it’s a false alarm. Security firms sell us “security” or the illusion of security and the tax paying citizen pays for it with 60% of the San Jose City budget going to police and fire. With the current economic crisis, San Jose decided to trim that budget item. San Jose is no longer going to spend the money to track down all those false alarms. Besides, it takes the police 3 hours to respond anyway so anything that’s happened is already done with.
Your best bet in case of a true emergency is going to be 911 dispatch, which is really just a triage nurse trying to asses your emergency. If you have a broken ankle, you may be in a lot of pain but the life threatening motorcycle accident is going to be seen before you.
I wonder if this will start a run on carry permits. Or maybe drama queens will be able to hire their own security to “clear the area” after an alarm goes off. We could have a whole new security industry balloon right beneath our feet. Welcome to yet another class divide where the wealthy have legal representation, health care and now security.
