Market Trends in the City of Lincoln (Placer County, CA)

I am working on an appraisal right now in the city of Lincoln. I am running some general data for the entire city and figured I’d share it here. I like to compile city-wide data and then most-importantly, neighborhood specific data. This helps me see the overall market in which the neighborhood is located, as well as the neighborhood itself.

What do you notice below on the trend graph? Does it look like there is a slight upswing on the bottom right corner? Take a peak at some other recent graphs on my blog and see if you can find this same phenomenon elsewhere. What do you think this means?

What People Are Saying: Do You Google Your Name or Company?

By Leave a Comment

Some thoughts for business and life.

What appears when your name is typed into a search engine? Business stuff? Personal or family informatoin? Articles mentioning your name? Comments you left on some random website? Pictures from your wild days that shouldn’t be online? Your Facebook profile or personal blog? 

Be honest. Have you ever looked up your name or business on a search engine to see what comes up? I was doing some thinking about this earlier today. Though it might sound narcissistic to some, I’ll admit that I perform regular searches for my name and my companies. Why do I do this? Because it’s good to know what others are saying, and also helpful to filter online content as much as possible. It’s an online world now, so finding out what the search engines are yielding is an important modern reality for many of us, especially for anyone in business.

As an aside, if you have never looked up your name in Zabasearch, I would recommend that. It’s actually very disturbing to see years of personal information available to anyone. Trust me, you might be shocked when you run a search for yourself or family members. 

If you end up doing a search, comment above if you’d like. What did you find? Anything surprising, or was it what you expected? What do you think of Zabasearch?
