Costa Mesa Real Estate Blog

Well, this is a story that goes to show you that you might not really know your neighbors as well as you think you do.

I joke that someone has finally found the elusive "money tree" and low and behold, it's right here in the Mesa Verde neighborhood of Costa Mesa!!

The way the economy has been, it's not surprising, but two alledged perpretrators were arrested this week for forging $50 and $100 bills and passing them off to retailers. The Secret Service was involved in helping catch the crooks, and they mentioned that the forgers actually did one of the best jobs that they had seen recently.

Too bad they couldn't do it legally, ala President Bush and the government's $700 Billion Money Tree!!

P.S. let me know if you want to buy the home with the money tree in Mesa Verde, I know where it is and they are open to offers :)
