Neighborhood Hot Spots: Try Looking (and living) on the edge!

Posted On July 27th, 2012 by Carole Isaacs | No Comments

While holding an open house at 75 Swiss Ave. in Glen Park last Sunday, a buyer just starting to “get serious” chatted with me about his theory on how to find a home that’s near neighborhood hotspots like Glen Park or Noe Valley.

Posted On July 18th, 2012 by Glen Williams | No Comments

In April, the Wall Street Journal stated that housing markets associated with the 34th America’s Cup were heating up for some, but not all, homeowners in San Francisco and…

Noe Valley = Noe Village

Posted On July 18th, 2012 by Carole Isaacs | No Comments

Walking down 24th Street from Castro to Church prosperity is visible everywhere. Four banks in this three block stretch and a Wholefoods at the center means there is serious money in the Noe Valley neighborhood. Newcomers to San Francisco or Noe Valley will invariably say, “The houses are so small, the prices so high; what is so great about this neighborhood? I don’t get it.” Normally my days are spent with clients looking at homes, stopping for lunch in Noe…

Everything You Need to Know About Home Staging

Posted On July 11th, 2012 by Shelley Egger | No Comments

The plaid recliner in the family room was as comfortable as it looked. Obviously it had been lovingly used throughout the years. Another plus was that it went perfectly with the red corduroy sofa on the opposite wall. The decor was perfect for the family—low key and comfortable. But now the kids were away at college and it was time to sell the family home. As always when I meet with sellers, I asked the couple if they had set…
