Hello, FresYes Insiders!

Happy Saturday! Can you believe we’re already diving into the excitement of the 2024 Olympics? It’s been incredible to watch our athletes shine on the global stage. As a rugby fan, I was thrilled to see our women’s team bring home a fantastic win. And, of course, our gymnastics and swimming teams have been delivering stellar performances as well. It’s always inspiring to see Team USA excel!

But let’s shift our focus back to our local gems. Have you had the chance to

check out O-Iza

yet? I attended their soft opening four months ago, and it’s quickly become a favorite of mine. If you haven’t been there yet, I highly recommend it for an unforgettable dining experience.

This week, Natali revisited

Raphio, our local chocolate maker

, whose creations are truly out of this world. If you thought you knew chocolate, think again—Raphio will change how you feel about chocolate forever!

As you enjoy your weekend, consider exploring a new spot around town. And don’t forget, Fresno State Football is only a month away! Get ready for an exciting season ahead.

Cheers to a fantastic weekend!

P.S.  Some words on Interest Rates 

Interest rates are headed down significantly

, signaling a potential game-changer for the housing market. 

Recent trends and economic indicators, such as the rapidly dropping U.S. 10-Year Treasury Note, suggest that this

downward trend in rates may continue.

The latest Jobs Report has confirmed, according to the Sahm Rule, that the U.S. is in the early stages of a recession. 

Historically, recessions lead to lower interest rates, and we are witnessing this in real time.

This development could increase buyer affordability,

as lower interest rates mean reduced monthly mortgage payments, making homes more accessible.

As rates improve, we may see a surge in new buyers entering the market,

previously deterred by high borrowing costs.

This influx of buyers could drive up home prices

, benefiting sellers.

While the decision to buy should be based on individual readiness rather than market timing, it’s essential to know what’s going on.  If you have questions about buying or selling, please contact me right away jason@fresyes.com

Head YES man at FresYes.com
I grew up in Fresno. Relaxed in its calm breezes, listened with my dad to the crack of the bat at little league baseball games when I was a kid and now take my son to do the same at minor league games. I broadened my mind at its schools (I went to high school right here at San Joaquin Memorial, and to college at Fresno State!) I love that if I drive for two hours in one direction, I can be in the mountains. For two hours in another, luxuriating on a California beach. I can enjoy the cosmopolitan atmosphere of San Francisco or Los Angeles, but still be able to come home to relaxation, calm, and quiet.

I love where I live, and I also love what I do. I'm lucky to be able to work in a profession in which I get to build relationships; one that has me meeting new people each and every day and helping them to build new lives in my beloved city. I'm lucky enough to work in a profession in which I can marry cutting-edge technologies and marketing techniques to good, old-fashioned, nose-to-the-grindstone work. I am lucky enough to work in a profession that allows me to work as an advocate for my clients; to use every tool at my disposal to get a job done well for them, and with as little stress and expense as possible.

I love my city. I love my job. One inspires my excellence for the other.

Fresno? I say FresYES

Who is FresYes?

Fresyes.com was started by me, Jason Farris. Yes, I'm in real estate. I think that real estate is so much more than buying and selling homes. It's all about the lifestyle, it's about community. Here in the Fresno / Clovis area we have such a wonderful sense of community. I wanted a place that best reflects the people, the places and the lifestyle that we call home. Fresyes.com is that place. We have fabulous authors who share what makes this community of ours so special. I also write here, and not always about real estate. You can find all my posts HERE
