Bank Reo's in Lodi.  A Bank Repo or REO is real estate owned by the bank, and many investors consider an REO property to be money just waiting to happen.

An REO is different from a foreclosure property in that the bank has already tried to sell it at a foreclosure auction and has had no luck getting bids. Because the property was not bid on, the bank then became the owner of the property. Naturally, the bank does not want to keep the REO any longer than possible, and this makes it a great opportunity for an investor. Clean REO's priced at the market in good areas are receiving multiple offers over the asking price in just a few days. An REO is real estate owned by the bank, and many investors consider an REO property to be money just waiting to happen.

Airport

Lodi is served by Stockton Metropolitan Airport, located on county land just south of city limits. The airport has been designated a Foreign Trade Zone and is mainly used by manufacturing and agricultural companies for shipping purposes. Since airline deregulation, passenger service has come and gone several times. Most recently, domestic service resumed in June 2006 with service to Las Vegas by Allegiant Air, and the days of service/number of flights were expanded a few months later due to demand. Also in 2006, Aeromexico had planned to provide service to and from Guadalajara, Mexico, but the airport's plan to build a customs station at the airport was initially rejected by the customs service. However, the possibility of building this station is currently a continuing matter of negotiation between the airport and the customs service, and Aeromexico has indicated a continuing interest in eventually providing service. Ground transportation is available from Hertz, Enterprise, Yellow Cab and Aurora Limousine. Air service to Phoenix began in September 2007. - California International Airports: California Airports

Lodi California, was known as Mokelumne Station and established in 1869. How Lodi got its name is a mystery. It has been said it was named after a popular racehorse.

In the early 1900's Tokay grapes were introduced into the area, and the town was able to grow and prosper. In 1907 the first Tokay Carnival was held to promote this particular grape. The Lodi California Arch was built to commemorate this first event, the Arch still stands today.

Museums: Lodi Museums • Lodi Railroad Museum

Lodi Ca currently has two museums, the Hill House MuseumBuilt at the turn of the century, Hill House was the home of George Washington Hill, his wife Mary Hill and their children, Nellie and Maurice. Mrs. Hill's half-sister, Daisy, also lived at Hill House. The house was moved in 1948 from its original location on School Street, across from the Lodi Post Office, to its present location at 826 South Church - a distance of about six blocks. Because of the move, required changes were made to bring the house up to city code. Changes, however, were primarily in the plumbing, electrical and heating systems, although an upper room was added at the time. Today, The Hill House is operated under the auspices of the Lodi Historical Society and the Hill House Committee. Volunteers conduct tours most Sundays from 1-4 PM. Special tours may be arranged by calling (209) 369-6073., a restored Queen Anne Victorian built around 1906 for a wealthy Lodian, the museum has all of the house's original furniture. Also, the San Joaquin County Historical Museum is in Lodi (at the Micke Grove Regional Park), and traces the history of the area through many exhibits and interactive displays. It is the largest museum complex in the county.

A science museum, called the World of Wonders, is soon to take home in the Downtown Lodi parking structure. It will feature interactive science exhibits, classrooms, and a retail store. It will be modeled after the San Franisco Exploratorium.

Despite California's rapid growth, Lodi has preserved its small town charm, offering visitors an easy pace of life longed for by many.

Lodi is about a 2-hour drive to San Francisco, and about a 45-minute drive to Sacramento. The population of Lodi is around 59,926 and covers approximately 12 square miles.

In any season, there is always something fun and interesting to do in and around Lodi, for people of any age or background. And if that is not enough, Lodi is within easy day trip driving distance to the Mother Lode Gold Rush country, the Sacramento Delta, Lake Tahoe, Yosemite, Sacramento, Reno, San Francisco and Monterey. All but hidden by expansive stretches of vineyards and miles of almond, cherry and walnut orchards, the area beckons travelers to discover Lodi and the Lodi wine country.

Name: The origin of the city's name is unclear. Historians have not agreed whether Lodi was named after a winning racehorse, a bridge in Italy (site of a great Napoleonic battle), or a town in Illinois.

Trivia: Lodi Trivia'

  • Originally named Mokelumne, Lodi town was too often confused with nearby Mokelumne Hill and Mokelumne City.
  • The fictional GI Joe character Flash was born in Lodi.
  • Author Stephen King has mentioned Lodi in four of his books, including The Stand.
  • A & W Root Beer was first concocted in Lodi by druggist Roy Allen in 1919.
  • The first bottled wine cooler, known as the California Cooler, was invented in Lodi by Michael Crete and Stewart Bewley. Crete and Bewley later sold the company for $55 million.
  • In May 2006 inhabitant Curtis Gokey attempted to sue the city of Lodi for damage to his car caused by a municipal dump truck. It emerged in court that he worked for the city of Lodi and was driving the dump truck at the time of the impact with his own car - the case was promptly thrown out. The story featured in a local newspaper, The Drudge Report, and BBC Radio Two's It's Been a Bad Week program.
  • The small yet popular Lodi Ca Airport is home to the invention of skysurfing, as well as being the first test location of the Single Human Hover Platform
  • "Lodi" is the title of a track from Creedence Clearwater Revival's 1969 album Green River. The refrain says, "Oh, Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again." Although songwriter John Fogerty wrote the song about being trapped in Lodi, California, about 75 miles from his hometown of El Cerrito, he has admitted in interviews that he had never actually been there, and picked its name for the song's title merely because it sounded like the name of a small town and but instead named the song after Lodi, Ohio, where Fogerty had visited in his youth. (according to John Fogerty's DVD he was stuck in Lodi). This (at first) raised the ire of some residents; the Lodi Chamber of Commerce, however, later capitalized upon this by producing car bumper stickers which read "This Bumper Got Stuck In Lodi."
