March Healthcare West, is working with the March Joint Powers Authority to build a medical facility at March and they plan on opening their doors to the new medical center by the end of 2011.  The facility is called March LifeCare, and there are also plans for several medical facilities and possibly retail stores and hotels. If all goes well, the complex could bring in as many as 7,200 new jobs to the area. This could very well help property owners and developers whose land is not on the base but in the surrounding area. Tons of properties, mostly in Moreno Valley and Perris, are currently for sale for commercial use. The majority is zoned for warehouses or large industrial buildings. The trickle down affect will be huge for office buildings that sell or lease smaller facilities to Doct... 09/20/2010

The Highland Fairview Corporate Park in Moreno Valley is coming alive! After many years of jumping over hurdles and running through barriers, the Highland Fairview Corporate Park has finally come to life.  After moving 2 million yards of dirt to grade the site, the ground has been been broken, the cement has been poured and walls are popping up.  There are many new jobs that are now within sight. Skechers alone is expected to employoy 2,400 people at their Moreno Valley location.                                                 Skechers could have chosen any other city, or for that matter taken there operation overseas, but instead they chose our city for their new headquarters.  As a local business owner I plan on buying a pair of Skechers this week to reciprocate.  :)  Thanks for choo... 09/19/2010

Today at the 6th Annual Raul Huerta Memorial Golf Tournament, we celebrated the life of Raul Martinez Huerta and helped raise money for his 9 year old daughters college fund. Raul was a great man... he was a Husband, Father, Coach and friend.  He lost his battle to cancer at a young age, I believe it was 31.  He coached and mentored many youth in the City of Moreno Valley and probably had the biggest, most famous smile in town.  I know it sounds played out... but this man would literally light up a room when he walked into it.  He ALWAYS had a smile on his face...always.  :) Rual and I in his garage sometime in 2000-2001 Raul was a California Wrestling State Place Winner for Canyon Springs High School in Moreno Valley and a Junior College All-American at Palomar Community College in San... 09/18/2010

I am very honored to announce that The Beeson Group Inc. has been selected by HUD-Pemco as one of their Local Listing Brokers (LLB's) to list and sell their HUD inventory here in Riverside County.  My lovely wife and Broker, Michelle, spent 6 weeks on our proposal and sent it in a couple months back.  We have been anxiously waiting to hear the results for awhile now and just received the email today.  What a blessing it is to be one of HUD-Pemco's chosen companies.  Michelle has worked her tail off throughout her career and it's nice to see her get rewarded for her hard work.  Great job baby, all of us here at The Beeson Group are awfully proud of you.                09/14/2010

Yes, I realize there is no actual "coffee" in this photo.  But I took it while drinking coffee with my hubby.  It's a beautiful day today.  I am starting out slow.  I'm feeling a bit decadent and just can't help it.  You gotta go with it when it comes along.    Happy Hump Day, everyone!
