Property Pick of the Week – Lakeshore Beauty, 1400 Eucalyptus $818,000
I have a great affection for the Lakeshore neighborhood. As a former Lowell-lite — I know every rock and stone of Eucalyptus Drive from the M Ocean MUNI Metro stop to Meadowbrook Drive.

Property Pick of the Week – HOT Condo Across From Kezar
When people say the word “condo” my mind immediately transports me to SOMA and the many lofts and coolio pads with pools, gyms and 24 hour security. The two-level condo at 798 Stanyan #2 changed all that. Think Kezar Stadium, 360 Views of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, Parnassus Heights, the Panhandle, and City… Read More

Is the inventory low or is it my imagination?
Do you get giddy looking at graphs like I do? Let me explain in plain English to San Francisco Buyers. The bottom of the market is long gone. It is NOT a BUYER’S market. Get that bargain hunting attitude out of your noodle. Last April there was five months of inventory. The definition… Read More

Year of the Dragon — All Ready to Rock and Roll
Goung Hay Fot Choy everyone! Oh man, I’m already wiped out — ragged from exhaustion of cleaning the house, running around on Clement Street to get the prettiest wrapped candies, and hunting down the crispiest money from a bank that most Chinese don’t frequent (B of A in the Castro). Somehow, I took all… Read More
What’s your status? Properties are WAY more complicated than people!
Single, married, looking — it’s pretty simple with humans. But when buyers search for properties on the internet, its hard to know which property is active, in contract, and whether the seller is open to having a back-up offer submitted. Well thankfully, in January 2012, the San Francisco Association of Realtors made some neat changes… Read More
