One of Joe Villareal’s favorite places to eat is Palo Alto Bak-ing Company on California

Avenue because it is individually owned and run.

“The person who owns it usually works here,” he said. “You’ll find a lot of businesses like that on Califor-nia Avenue.”

Despite containing one of the big-gest commercial districts in Palo Alto, the Mayfield neighborhood is often forgotten or grouped together with one of the surrounding neigh-borhoods, said Villareal, a resident for 32 years. It’s left off of neighbor-hood maps and many of its own resi-dents are not aware of its historical significance.

“It has a very distinct history,” he said.

Mayfield, Calif., was its own town founded in 1855, even before Palo Alto’s beginnings in 1894, said Palo Alto Historical Association’s histo-rian Steven Staiger. Though Leland Stanford originally wanted to build his university in Mayfield, the town refused his one request: that the town, which was known for its 13 bars, go “dry.”

Eventually, Palo Alto outgrew Mayfield and in 1925, the two cities became one, with Palo Alto annex-ing Mayfield.

Today, the blocks bounded by El

RENTS ARE UP ... If you’ve been

home-hunting lately, it’s not your

imagination that rents have been

edging up. Average asking price for

a two-bedroom, two-bath apart-

ment in Palo Alto rose to $3,349

through June 30, up 17 percent

over last year; for a one-bedroom,

one-bath place, asking rent is

$2,402, up 9 percent, according

to RealFacts, which gathers data

on apartment buildings with at

least 50 units. It’s still less pricey in

Mountain View: A two-bedroom,

two-bath place goes for $2,679 (up

18 percent), and a one-bedroom,

one-bath apartment for $1,894 (up

16 percent). The best deal in town

is still East Palo Alto, with a one-

bedroom, one-bath unit going for

$1,063 (up 9 percent), or $1,300

for two bedrooms. (RealFacts calls

both East Palo Alto and Menlo Park

“outliers,” because there are so

few apartment buildings with 50 or

more units.)

268 Alicia Way, Los Altos268 Alicia Way, Los Altos

Camino Real, Park Boulevard, Cam-bridge Avenue and Oregon Express-way house one of Palo Alto’s most popular shopping districts and a slew of residents.

One of the biggest differences be-tween Mayfield and the surrounding neighborhoods is the kind of housing it provides. While Evergreen is filled with single-family homes, flowering front yards and picket fences, the ma-jority of housing in Mayfield is multi-family residences, such as apartments and condos.

“There are two types of people here,” Villareal said. “There are people who rent and are here for a few years and people who have condos and are more active in the community.”

Though there is not an official neigh-borhood association, several Mayfield residents, including Villareal, are part of Palo Alto Neighborhoods, an inde-pendent organization that aims to help

each neighborhood in the area com-municate its needs to the city.

“It’s sort of loose,” Villareal said of Mayfield’s version of a neighborhood association. “It’s more like a confed-eracy.”

Mayfield’s inclusion of California Avenue is both a selling point for the neighborhood and one of its banes.

Joe Belion, who has lived in May-field for 13 years, said one of the main reasons he enjoys his home there is that there are a myriad restaurants within walking distance from his apartment.

“I like that I’m by a lot of places I can eat,” he said.

While living near Palo Alto’s second downtown is certainly a plus for many Mayfield residents, it’s also clear that parking near home is a challenge.

Sarah Li moved to the Mayfield neighborhood just a few months ago because of Palo Alto’s renowned school district, but she is already ex-periencing parking anxiety.

“We only have one parking garage for our community,” she said. “If we

have friends over there’s not enough space for them to park.”

Villareal said a lot of the parking problems have come with the over-development of California and Cam-bridge avenues. Because much of the business zoning in Mayfield is pedes-trian and transit zoning, many busi-nesses have had to sacrifice parking spaces, he said.

Though there is a Caltrain station within the neighborhood, Villareal said most people still drive to and from work and to shop, causing even more parking problems.

And, while the neighborhood does not have the 13 boisterous bars it once did, Mayfield still has several cafes and bars, such as Antonio’s Nut House and Cafe Riace, and Sarah Wallis Park in the center of its residential zone.

“(Sarah Wallis Park) is one of my favorite places to go and read and meet and talk to people,” Villareal said.

Because Mayfield is zoned primar-ily for multi-family residents, Villa-real said the community boasts a lot of diversity.

“This area has a big mixture of pop-ulation, from age, ethnicity, income levels,” he said.

T he confluence of a vibrant economy, ideal climate and intellectual capital draw peo-

ple to Silicon Valley from around the world. This melding of cultures, ideas and approaches only serves to intensify the appeal of this area. As the demographic profile of the area changes, so does the real estate market. These changes can be seen in the increase in construction, all-cash offers, shrinking inventory and resultant appreciation, especially in areas with great schools.

In order to understand the shift in the local real estate market, it is helpful to consider the places from which the buyers are immigrating. By and large, foreign buyers come from large cosmopolitan cities with strong high-tech industries and education; places like Beijing and Shanghai, China; Taiwan; Banga-lore and New Delhi, India, and other emerging economies.

Generally these areas share a few similarities. First, nice is often syn-onymous with new. The most afflu-ent and desirable areas tend to have a lot of new construction. As a result of this engrained belief, many of the

people that re-locate to the States favor new or newer construction in very good con-dition. Thus, the grand old dame in Old Palo Alto that

would appeal to so many Europeans and New Yorkers may be passed over in favor of a newly constructed home with an in-law suite in Midtown.

Also, the smaller lots in many parts of Palo Alto and the surround-ing areas may not deter buyers from areas where land is very limited and housing is quite dense. Therefore, not surprisingly, the convenience of Palo Alto may hold more appeal than the rural charm of places like Woodside and Portola Valley.

Once a foreign buyer has found the perfect house, he or she needs to submit an offer that will be consid-ered competitive in this hot sellers’ market. Fortunately, foreign buyers tend to favor all-cash purchases for a combination of cultural and practical reasons. On the cultural side, many countries do not share the American

acceptance of debt, especially long-term debt. On the practical side, it is simply harder for buyers to obtain credit when the majority of their in-come and credit history is outside of the United States.

While some banks, most notably HSBC and Citi, have begun to lend based on international credit history and foreign income, the approval process takes considerably longer. Although all-cash offers may be both more convenient and competitive for the well-heeled foreign buyer, this may not be possible for many foreign buyers. Therefore, sellers evaluating multiple offers should consider the reasons for a longer requested es-crow period and weigh the offer’s strength in light of the totality of the circumstances.

In addition to the impact on the offer process, the shift in demo-graphics over the past 20 years has reduced housing inventory. Typical-ly the “American Dream” of home ownership has involved a consistent upgrading of homes throughout one’s life cycle. Generally, some-one graduated from college, saved money for a down payment, bought a condo or small house and lived there until their family size made them de-sire a larger home. Most often, they would sell the first property and use the proceeds as a down payment on the next property.

Many foreign buyers utilize a buy

and retain strategy. When it is time to upgrade, many foreign buyers re-tain the old property as an invest-ment. Thus, there are fewer and few-er properties coming on the market each year. Naturally, this reduced inventory contributes to the strength of the local real estate prices.

While it is inappropriate, and, in fact illegal, for a seller or real estate agent to steer people of a certain ethnic group towards one area or house, it is wise to remain cognizant of cultural factors that may impact the potential buyer pool. This can range from advertising in foreign-language papers, staging the home to appeal to foreign buyers (e.g., consider Feng Shui elements) and weighing offer strength in light of all circumstances.

Without question, the quintessen-tial American melting pot is alive and well in Silicon Valley. Whether a buyer or seller, an understanding of the various factors that impact foreign buyers will help you best structure the transaction to achieve the best possible result.

Beware of Fraudulent Rental Advertisements The Silicon Valley Association of

REALTORS® (SILVAR), the local

trade association representing over 4,000

REALTORS® and affiliate members

engaged in the real estate business on

the Peninsula and in the South Bay, has

received reports from members of a

scam by individuals fraudulently posing

as landlords and misrepresenting vacant

properties for lease.

Using various websites,

the scam artists advertise

a home for rent, when the

property is actually for

sale. Prospective tenants

who call the phone number

provided in the false

rental advertisement are

then directed to provide

an application fee and rental deposit

immediately if they wanted to lease the

unit. A recent scam was discovered once

prospective tenants contacted the actual

listing agent to gain access to view the

property. Law enforcement authorities

have been notified of these attempted

scams.

“It is tragic that people continue to

prey on consumers who are in need of a

place to rent. We are asking consumers to

always verify the owner of the property

you intend to rent and heed guidance

issued by the California Department

of Real Estate (DRE),” said SILVAR

President Suzanne Yost.

The DRE provides the following

guidance to protect consumers from

“imposter landlords”:

provide you with proof that they own the

house, and to show you their government

issued picture identification. Then

scrutinize the proof of ownership, as well

as the identifications since there is also the

risk that their identifications can be false.

dealing with an owner’s/

landlord’s representative, you

should check with the DRE

to see if that representative or

agent is licensed. Check the

license records on the DRE

website (www.dre.ca.gov) and

make sure you are working

with legitimate licensees.

check with the County Recorder’s office

UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. On August 17, 2012, at 9:00am, Cal-Western Reconveyance Corporation, as duly appointed trustee under and pursuant to Deed of Trust recorded November 28, 2006, as Inst. No. 19202004 in book XX, page XX of Official Records in the office of the County Recorder of Santa Clara County, State of California, executed by Laura Gens A Married Woman, will sell at public auction to highest bidder for cash, cashier's check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association, or savings bank Santa clara convention center, 5001 great america parkway Great America Ballroom Santa Clara, California, all right, title and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said Deed of Trust in the property situ-ated in said County and State described as: Completely described in said deed of trust The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 4141 Old Trace Rd Palo Alto CA 94306-3728 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any

incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be held, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, pos-session, condition or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts cre-ated by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remaining principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $2,029,496.83. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a writ-ten declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is locat-ed. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auc-tion does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the prop-erty. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the exis-tence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, ben-eficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public,

as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (800)280-2832 or visit the Internet Web Site, www.auction.com, using the file number assigned to this case 1181867-02. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web Site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. FOR SALES INFORMATION: (800)280-2832 Cal-Western Reconveyance Corporation, 525 East Main Street, P.O.

The under-signed Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, under the terms of said Deed of Trust, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid bal-ance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable esti-mated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is $384,497.94. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the County where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are consid-ering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automati-cally entitle you to free and clear owner-ship of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insur-ance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mort-gage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (916) 939-0772 or visit this Internet Web http://search.nationwideposting.com/propertySearchTerms.aspx using the file number assigned to this case CA1100232764. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not imme-diately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. If the sale is set aside for any rea-son, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse.
