Women's History Month at Permit Place

Written by Mike Robinson
Women's History Month March is Women's History Month.  In honor of that month, we found several online sources that tell us more about Women's History month.  About.com has a great resource called The History of Women's History month about how March became Women's history month.  They also debunk myths in the Myth's Of Women's History. Additionally, the National Women's History Project 2011 theme is Our History is Our Strength.  They link to even more additional Women's History Links and resources all over the country.  Permit Place is a WBENC certified company and we can help you meet your supplier diversity goals.  We honor the accomplishments of the Women that came before us.
Southern California Building Permits at an historic low. On February 16, 2011, Jeff Meyers of Meyers Builders Advisors spoke at the Allen/Matkins Real Estate Development Law Update event providing attendees with some insight into the current state of the real estate market and his opinion on the health of the market moving forward. The update was primarily focused on the Southern California housing market, as well as, recent land transactions that may shape the future of housing in the region over the coming few years. Southern California permit activity is at a historic low.  As a result, Southern California will remain a popular investment location given the limited supply conditions that exist with land being so difficult to entitle.   While other bubble states, FL, AZ, and NV were oversupplied and overpriced, CA was just overpriced. Any spike in employment has the potential to create high levels of demand that cannot be met, thus driving home prices upward. Employment/Permit (E/P) ratio will likely stabilize over the coming years.  Last year, San Diego and Orange County posted modest job gains.  Economists are forecasting further job recovery this year throughout the region.  When job growth outpaces permit issuances, with the EP ratio reaching 2 jobs per permit or more, we typically have a period of significant price appreciation. Interesting points.  I'm eager to here more from Jeff.  We certainly have seen an uptick in activity at Permit Place.  You can check out what's going on through our Permit Place Construction Monitor report.  We collect and compile all the permits in the regional area.
