Introduction
Paradise Cay is a waterfront community of about 200 homes (including a few newly-built town homes and free standing homes) on the North-East edge of the Tiburon Peninsula.
About thirty-nine of the homes front directly onto San Francisco Bay and have spectacular views. The rest are situated on canals approximately 90 ft wide and have docks capable of berthing cruisers some of which are up to 60ft in length.
Waterfront and Canal-front Homes
In common with many other Bayfront homes the ones in Paradise Cay do not have docks because permanently berthing a boat directly on the Bay is not practical due to wave motion. Nevertheless these absolute waterfront homes have excellent views of the Bay. The boats on the canals and in the Paradise Cay Yacht Harbor, which is part of the development, all have direct access to the Bay.
The canals are a little tight for maneuverability of large cruisers but that will just improve your boat maneuvering skills won't it? There is also a minor matter of fairly steep gangplanks at low tide but that is a small price to pay for a protected berth with direct access to the Bay. The canals are currently being dredged (October 2009) and dredging will be repeated about every five years.
The Yacht Harbor and Tiburon Yacht Club
The new, six acre Paradise Cay Yacht Harbor (marina), at the Northern end of the Paradise Cay development, can accommodate boats up to 115 feet with up to 24-foot beam on the end ties. It has two pump-out facilities, lots of parking and new restrooms.
The nearby Tiburon Yacht Club (400 Trinidad Drive) has about 230 members (about 40% of them from the Cay) but has no berthing facilities of its own given the close proximity of the Paradise Cay Yacht Harbor. It is an active sailing club with over thirty scheduled races per year - not just a social venue.
Community
However, the Tiburon Yacht Club does also serve as a gathering place for the community which has a number of notable residents. These include the Moseleyes (Tim the "patriach" being responsible for the Paradise Cay development in the sixties) and the interestingly controversial radio personality Michael Savage of the "Savage Nation". There is a good community spirit evidenced in various activities throughout the year.
Summary
Paradise Cay is one of the very few localities in Marin County where you can have a big boat safely berthed at your back door. Although it may appear a bit isolated on a map, it is only ten miles from the Golden Gate Bridge and a few miles away from a good (some say excellent) supermarket (Paradise Market) and the two extensive shopping areas of Corte Madera - "Town Center" and "The Village" either side of Hwy 101.
Route 113 Golden Gate buses run between Paradise Cay and Redwood High School on school days. The Cay lies in the highly rated Tiburon Reed School district.
There are very few localities in Marin that offer the variety of water views, boating options, a good school district and good shopping not too far away, that are to be found in Paradise Cay.

Growth Drivers For Real Estate Sector
Losses of industry players were capped by the timely intervention of RBI, which increased the interest rate since 2006. The sector continues to remains unsteady. However, driven by the global economic recovery and macro-economic and sector-specific factors, experts believe that capital will start flowing in this sector. Besides global economic recovery, the following are the indicators of this sector's growth in the near future:
Industry experts estimate that by 2010, Indian IT and ITES sector will need approximately 150 million square feet of official space.
Growth in organized retail sector will provide significant boost to commercial real estate sector, which is expected to demand 220 million sq ft of additional commercial space across tier-I and tier-II cities.
According to the Tenth Five Year Plan of the government, there is a shortage of approximately 22 million residential units and over the medium and long term around 90 million dwelling units will have to be constructed especially for middle and lower income families. Housing Development & Infrastructure Ltd (HDIL) and the Mumbai Metropolitan Development Authority (MMRDA), together plan to build a residential-cum-commercial complex in Virar, a suburb of Mumbai at a cost of around $1.49 billion.
Introduction of REMFs (Real Estate Mutual Funds) and REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts) will definitely have a major impact on realty sector by helping players for price determination. As per CRISIL, REITs has the potential to reach the size of $1400 billion in next 3 years.
The following section has some of the new projects expected to be undertaken by private realty developers:
* Tata Housing Development Company is expected to build around 1300 low-cost residential units at Boisar, 100km from Mumbai
* Atlas Group plans to diversify into Indian real estate sector and invest $201.51 million in Kerala over the next years
* Tata Realty and Infrastructure (TRIL) will invest approximately $4.2 billion for building SEZs, roads and other core sector projects

Making Bad Mortgages Healthy Again
In today's economy, and any recession in general, the loss of income is felt particularly by homeowners. Owning a home is the central part of the American dream in order to build a lifestyle and source of wealth for an entire family and generations to come. As the job market declines, home foreclosures become a reality, and this can sometimes end that dream for many families.
When facing a potential foreclosure, there are many steps that can be taken to avoid the loss of the home. Many homeowners take advantage of opportunities to modify a home loan in order to make payments more manageable. Home loan modification programs cover nearly every situation and will offer solutions that allow families to live in their homes and still afford to pay the bills every month on time.
Let's take a look at how a little hard work and diligence can save a mortgage.
Making Contact
The first, most important step in order to modify a home loan is to make contact with the principle lender or a home loan modification specialist. Suffering in silence is not the answer, and in fact, can jeopardize any attempt to fix the problem. Being pro-active and seeking help even before the first payment is missed allows for the greatest chance for a successful resolution to any financial crisis.
Home Loan Modification Specialists
Negotiating contracts is rarely a pleasant experience. It is easy to feel intimidated by a bank or lender when it comes time to modify a home loan. Thankfully, there are specialists available that can do all of the negotiating and contract work on behalf of a homeowner. These companies work with banks and lenders to change mortgage terms in order to make monthly payments palatable.
When choosing a representative, be careful to find the best in the field. When looking for a representative, verify that the company is an Online Business Bureau approved site or part of the Better Business Bureau.
Starting The Home Loan Modification Process
Putting together a financial statement of the homeowner's income, assets, and liabilities is the first step when negotiating the terms of a mortgage whether it is done personally or through an advocate. Developing a thorough financial statement requires monthly bank statements (at least 2 months worth), copies of recent paychecks, the last year's tax return, as well as bills and living expenses. To complete the initial package, a hardship letter should be included that states why a loan modification is necessary and the desire to stay current on the mortgage and remain in the home.
Once the financial package is in order, the process can begin. There are many options available when re-arranging loan terms to fit any situation. Loan advocates are an excellent resource for weighing the options in order to make the best decision. Regardless of what changes are needed in a mortgage, obtaining a home loan modification early is the best way to avoid foreclosure.

Real Estate Finding a New Track in Indian Economy
A big impact of recession is seen in the worldwide market, where many big companies posted big losses, asked for a bailout and even filed for the bankruptcy. The recession had such an impact on the world over economy that even a core business of a particular country went in loss with many citizens pulling their hands off from investment part.
Same happened with the Indian real estate market, the most bullish sector where not many hesitated before putting their money forward for an investment related to some plot, flat, office, shop etc.
In the month of September 2008, when recession captured the world with a full grip, the real estate of India suffered a big loss session. All the major reality players like Jaypee Group, Unitech and DLF came up with the schemes and rebates on flats to attract as many buyers as they can and sell off the reserve as soon as possible.
The cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata and National Capital Region accounts for big business of the country with many property owners earning big money from the rental income from homes and offices.
One can analyse the downfall of rental income in these cities as many fully constructed buildings are standing with a very less space occupied with them and that too on a small amount of rent in comparison with the rentals of 2007.
This downfall was not limited to the rental part of real estate industry but the pure buying and selling of properties also came to a halt after financial crises reached the Indian economy.
With the global economic crises on one side, leading players of real estate India like DLF and Unitech are focusing more on the repayment of debts as soon as possible.
This has resulted in big real estate players selling their personal office properties, shifting their focus from core property business to some other businesses like insurance and hospitality and selling off some part of the company by getting listed on the capital market.
However, according to the recent study conducted by several industry watchers, the real estate of India is coming back on profitable track with the demand for offices is increasing in major cities like Bangalore and Mumbai, however Delhi and NCR are still far from witnessing growth in demand as many are expecting further fall in rentals here.
Besides the growth factor in office and shop rentals, a slight growth is also seen in the buying and selling transactions of properties.
With the Indian economy coming on track again, the demand for flats are seen rising in past one month. The real estate developers like Amrapali, Parsvanath and Unitech are nor registering some potential bookings on their order books.
The recent festive season has also added some profits to the real estate industry when many were keen on buying a new home.
During the last festive season, a very low rush was seen for the real estate buying but this year, the banks came up with some attractive home loan schemes with the help of rebate provided by Reserve Bank of India.

Forex Trading System - A Key To Successful Forex Trading And Trading For A Living
Every one has his days when no matter how well he has planned out his trades, he may find some of his trades not performing to what is planned. It is only natural for one to feel upset, but for the follower of a forex trading system, making money or losing money from that trade is not the paramount objective.
Why is this so?
For the trader who employs a forex trading system, he can still face the losing trade with a smile, because he has had followed through the trading signals in a disciplined way, and it is only when a trader follows a system, he can be sure of keeping his losses small and to live to trade again another day.
By using a forex trading system, the trader can have a cool head, and can face his trades rather unemotionally. He can execute his trades following pre-determined price levels of initial stop loss, trailing loss and computed and projected price profit.
He knows his tolerable level of loss, his threshold of pain - and of course, his risk to reward ratio even before he trades.
Now when a trader has a trading system and follows through the trading plan, making profits is a natural result when he makes a correct trade. But when his trade is wrong, his forex trading system will very quickly show him that the direction of his trade is wrong, so that he is out of the game fairly quickly.
I am often flabbergasted at some very broad claims of some traders who condemn day trading systems and relegate them to the garbage bin. When you look at forex trading systems, review them quickly by peer recommendation whenever possible. By peer recommendation, I mean you can ask existing traders their experience on the trading system, and how they are doing with it. Posting to the numerous reliable trading forums will allow you to receive some independent reviews fairly quickly. At the same time, my personal experience, and that of many other professional traders is that day trading can be profitable, though it is never easy to day trade. Otherwise, how is it that so many day traders are able to earn their income day trading the short swings of the market daily for a living? So it is important for you to have a broad view of forex trading systems if you are contemplating of learning or purchasing any trading system that relates to day trading.
If you ever wish to trade successfully, whether you day trade or swing trade, it is important that you have a trading system that will allow you to approach trading in a disciplined manner. It is only when you are a disciplined trader that you can see consistent large gains and small losses.

Trend Following System - Building a System For Triple Digit Annual Gains
Forex markets trend long term, they always have and they always will as long as we have a free market and the big trends which reflect the underlying economic cycle can last for many weeks, months or even years. If you learn to trend follow correctly you can make huge long term profits in around 30 minutes a day...
Many traders like to trade the market noise and trade short term but this is doomed to failure, as all short term volatility is random. If you trade the big trends you get better odds, more profits and spend less time on your trading. Lets look at trend following in more detail.
If you want to succeed at Forex trend following, you should keep the key points in mind below when formulating your Forex trading strategy.
Simple and Robust
The best trend following systems are simple and it's a fact that in Forex simple systems work better than complex ones, as they have fewer elements to break than complex ones. A graphic example of this is the free one we have on this site which has only one rule yet, test it and you will see how much money it makes. A Successful trend following system can be based on just looking at support and resistance and have a few indictors to confirm your view and that will work just fine.
Use Breakouts
All big trends start and continue from breakouts to new market highs or lows so if you are considering trend following, breakout methodology should be used in your Trading strategy. Breakouts are simple to understand and simply trade the reality of price change and trading breakouts is a highs odds way of trading Forex.
Trade Infrequently
I know traders that trade maybe once or twice a month and make triple digit gains and that's because they focus on the best high odds trades. You get nothing for effort in Forex trading, you're judged purely on results and if you are patient and wait for the best set ups you will increase your odds of success and reduce your work rate
Acceptance of Short Term Volatility
If you are tend following in Forex you are after trends that last for weeks, months or even years and you have to accept that you cannot predict tops or bottoms, you always have to give a bit back at the end of a trend and you also have to accept short term drawdown in equity against you as you follow the trend.
Long term trend following, requires patience and discipline but if you caught just 60% of every major trend, you would make a lot of money.

Forex Trading Signal - A Free Simple to Understand Equation Which Makes Big Profits
Here we are going to look at a free Forex trading signal that makes big gains and has done for over 25 years and is used by some of the world's top traders in their Forex trading strategies. Let's take a look at it.
The signal doesn't even need trading software to generate it, you can actually do it in your head. The signal is credited to famous trader Richard Donchain who is considered the grandfather of modern trend following and he called it the four week Rule and this is the rule
1. When prices move to a new 4 month high buy a currency and hold it.
2. Wait for a new 4 week low to occur, liquidate the long and take a short position.
3. Always maintain a position long or short in the market and simply reverse on each new 4 week high or low.
The above rule could not be simpler but it works and if you test it, you will see how much money it makes and the reason it works is because it works on two pieces of logic which will never go out of date and there the following:
1. Markets trend up or down for sustained periods of time.
2. All major trends start and continue from major breakouts
