The California primary is rapidly approaching.  How many California conservatives will actually vote?  Proposition 50 which eliminated 5 Republican districts statewide only passed because California Republicans did not vote.  In Northern California replacing a home water heater will cost between $8,000 and $35,000 beginning in 2027 with the new energy code adopted by Santa Clara County.  What are the advantages to rebuilding your rental property after a fire vs taking the money and leaving it?  We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk.  Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Estate.</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>There are many meanings to the phrase May Day.  Our modern day leftist use it to support communism.  In war it was used to signify an emergency.  As California moves further left the emergency is real.  For every proposition on the ballot to protect proposition 13 the legislature creates propositions to defeat it.  A retired couple who bought their home in Montana in 2005 out the hard way what unlimited property taxes can do to home ownership.  Their 2005 property tax bill was $2,700.  Their 2026 property tax bill is $58,000!  We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk.  Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Estate.</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>California is repeatedly suing the Trump administration for trying to increase gas supplies in California.  Several initiatives have qualified for the November ballot in California.  How will Bonta name them?  One requires voter id and proof of citizenship to vote.  It will probably be named The Voter Suppression Act by our Secretary of State.  The Jarvis initiative to protect Proposition 13 will probably be named the Unfair and Unequal Tax Act.  We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk.  Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Estate.  </p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>The California Legislature is back in session.  We are all in trouble.  The most important items they are working on?  Protecting LGBT Rights and affirming children's rights to gender care.  Legislation has been introduced to allow minors up to 20 years to sue any therapist who did not affirm their transition.  Additional legislation has been introduced to make it illegal for hospitals to comply with Federal requests for records relating to sex changing surgeries of minors.  Both of these laws are probably unconstitutional.  We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk.  Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Estate.</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>As we celebrate this Easter weekend it seems that the world is in the final stages of the spiritual battle described in the Bible.  The left continues to protest any cause that Trump supports.  Often they don't even know why they are protesting.  State Legislatures continue to write additional laws limiting our constitutional rights.  The United States appears to have allied with the King of the North against the King of the South as described by John in Revelations.   These are truly troubling times we live in.  As we celebrate the great gift we received from God in sacrificing his Son Jesus Christ for our sins, we should all spend time with family and reflect on the word of God.  I hope everyone has a blessed peaceful Easter. </p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>California Democrat Congress members are visiting their districts claiming that the high cost of housing, gas and electricity in California are all caused by Trump and Republicans.  Meanwhile the California legislature is trying to devise ways and reasons to break Proposition 13.  In Nashville Tennessee where there are no protections for property owners one owner made the news because his property tax is going up from $160,000 to $600,000 forcing him to sell his business.  A San Francisco professor claims that Proposition 13 costs the state $43 billion a year in uncollected property taxes.  He further notes that the longer you own a home in California the more disparate the property tax becomes, unfairly helping older white people to keep their homes.  In most red states seniors get major property tax breaks.  In California they are trying to figure out how to tax seniors and force them to sell their homes.  We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk.  Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Estate.</p>]]>

Each tower must be anchored to the sea bottom in the middle of one of richest kelp fields on the California Coast.  Newsom has promised to sue if this project is stopped.  The environmentalist support the project because it creates "green" energy.  We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk.  Real Talk is the Right Side of Real Estate.</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>Newsom announced a new legislative investigative committee this week to determine why California has the 2nd highest electricity prices in the nation.  Hint, it might have something to do with the actual cost of the "clean"  green solar and wind power added to the grid.   This is after his victory dance a week ago for enacting a law that will force the remaining gas refineries in California to go out of business over the next decade.  I said it before and I will say it again.  If we want to end gender mutilating surgeries and chemical treatment of minors in California and the nation all we need is for Trump to propose more men in women's locker rooms and sports and to support the sex change surgeries for children paid for by the government.  The left will immediately be against it.  Need proof?  Look at their position on "War Hawks" like Liz Cheney.  The left suddenly supports the rich sending our children to endless wars.<br><br><br></p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>In the past 60 days two people have been electrocuted swimming if valley pools.  Is your pool safe?  What would you do if someone jumped into your pool and was being electrocuted?  The state water resources board is working frantically with the Biden administration to further limit the amount of surface water farmers in the valley can receive before the election possibly takes the left our of power.  Rent control means fewer rentals built and more expensive housing for all.  Vote no on Proposition 33.  Beep Beep.  Boom!  Be careful where you keep your pager.  We discuss all of this and more on this week's Real Talk.  Real Talk is the Right Side of Estate.</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>What a week to go on vacation!  Trump assassination attempt.  Court rules Jack Smith is illegally appointed and judge dismisses Trump Classified Document Case.  Trump names JD Vance as his Vice Presidential Running Mate.  Biden is hiden again, with Covid for the 3rd time even though he has been jabbed at least 7 times.  I don't discuss any of this on this week's show because I am on vacation.  Tune in next week and we will discuss it.  I hope you enjoy this week's overview of Real Estate in California and why owning Real Estate is still important.</p>]]>
