Geographic Area of Lending Activity Sample Clauses

Geographic Area of Lending Activity. The Partnership will continue to generally limit lending to Deeds of Trust on properties located in California. Approximately eighty percent (80%) of the Partnership's Mortgage Investments are secured by Deeds of Trust on properties in six San Francisco Bay Area counties and the General Partners anticipate that this will continue in the future. These counties, which have an aggregate population of over 3.5 million, are Santa Cxxxx, San Mateo, San Francisco, Alameda , Contra Costa and Marin. The economy of the area where the security is located is important in protecting market values. Therefore, the General Partners will limit the largest percentage of its lending activity principally to the San Francisco Bay Area since it has a broad diversified economic base, an expanding working population and a minimum of buildable sites. The General Partners believe these factors contribute to a stable market for residential property. Although, the real estate market in Northern California, like most of the country, had fallen off during the early 1990's, the market appears to be recovering, the General Partners believe the strength of the economy of Northern California, especially in the Bay Area, will continue to protect market values. Although the General Partners anticipate that the Partnership's primary area of lending will continue to be Northern California, as the remainder of California economy continues its recovery the General Partners may elect to make Mortgage Investments secured by real property located throughout California. A wide variety of indicators suggest that economic growth in California was strong in the first half of 1996. Statistics on the California labor market, personal income, consumer spending, firm formation and housing markets all point to large gains in economic activity this year. Strength in business and real estate loan demand contributed to a large increase in lending by California banks in April and May. This increase is reflected in a 16.5% increase in home sales volume in California on the first quarter, relative to a year earlier. The largest gains were in the San Francisco Bay Area, where sales were almost twenty-five percent (25%) higher than a year earlier. Home sales in San Mateo County were sixty-four percent (64%) higher in May over the same month last year. Sales in Alameda County were up 21.7% over the year. In the San Francisco Bay Area, the median single-family home price increased about three percent (3%) over the ye...

Geographic Area of Lending Activity. The Partnership will limit lending to Deeds of Trust on properties located in California. The General Partners anticipate that approximately 75% of the Partnership's Mortgage Investments will be secured by Deeds of Trust on properties in six San Francisco Bay Area counties. These counties, which have an aggregate population of over 3.5 million, are San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Marin, Alameda and Contra Costa. Currently, 72% of the Partnership's Mortgage Investments are secured by Deeds of Trust on properties in these six counties. The economy of the area where the security is located is important in protecting market values. Therefore, the General Partners will limit the geographic area of lending principally to the San Francisco Bay Area and surrounding Counties, which has a broad diversified economic base, an expanding working population and a minimum of buildable sites. The General Partners believe these factors contribute to a more stable market for real estate. Although, the real estate market in California, like most of the country, has decreased in value during the early 1990s, it has improved somewhat in the last 3 years. The General Partners believe the strength of the economy of California, especially in the Bay Area, will continue to protect market values over the longer term. Over the last 30 months the number of seriously delinquent mortgages, that is, mortgages more than 90 days past due, reported by many of the largest California lenders has decreased. This decrease indicates, as predicted by the General Partners, that the California economy, especially Northern California, is improving. The Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco has recently reported an increased demand for business credit. Over the last thirty months large banks in California have reported an increase in demand for business loans from middle market borrowers for inventory financing and investment purposes. Smaller banks are also reporting an increase in demand for business loans. Commercial and consumer loan growth rates in California exceeded last years. This increase in consumer and business loans reflects increased business activity, an improving economy and increased confidence among employers. This increased confidence and business activity has also been reflected in the real estate market. Real estate loans outstanding exceeded their year-earlier levels, marking this the third positive year-over-year increase. ATTACHMENT I to SUPPLEMENT NO. 3 DATED NOVEMBER ...
