Many of us live in subdivisions managed by a homeowner association. The rights and duties of association members and the board of directors are spelled out in the unwieldy Davis-Stirling Act.   My biggest beef with the Act is that it applies to little subdivisions as well as giant subdivisions with thousands of owners, one size fits all, so it’s overkill and unduly burdensome on little HOA’s.

Welcome to the first Lake Tahoe real estate market report for 2015. So far this year, the Truckee and Tahoe real estate markets are showing signs of continued appreciation. However, I anticipate that the rate of appreciation might be slowing down due to lower inventory levels and slightly lower demand due to continued price increases as well as rising interest rates.  If I had to guess, I would say that the median housing price in Tahoe and Truckee will rise 5-10% in 2015.
