Real estate writer to look at market news and trends
Broderick Perkins, a journalist for more than 25 years and a real estate writer for the San Jose Mercury News for 16 years, will write news and analysis of real estate news for the Los Gatos Weekly-Times beginning with today's issue.

Perkins studied journalism at Robert Maynard's Institute of Journalism Education at UC-Berkeley and studied English literature and journalism at the University of Delaware. He later worked at the Wilmington, Del., News Journal Papers. He is the executive editor of DeadlineNews.Com.

Perkins won the 1997 National Association of Real Estate Editors Journalism Competition's first prize for the Best Newspaper Report by an individual for a story about private mortgage insurance.

He will report news and market trends as well as provide analysis and practical information about strategies for responding to changes in the real estate market. We believe Perkins' reports will improve our coverage of a critical element of the local economy.    —Editor
