2204 166th Ave. San Leandro - Just Sold!


My first time home buyers recently closed on this amazing, modern, newly built home in San Leandro. They were a bit concerned when we began our home search due to the extreme competitiveness of the current East Bay real estate market. But our search only lasted a few weeks and the only offer that we wrote was for this super cool home, an offer which was accepted. My clients are not only first time home buyers, but parents as well. Their baby was born just a few weeks prior to us finding this house, so the timing couldn't have been much better! I wish them the best on this next chapter of their life and thank them for their business....

Breakfast in Emeryville

Emeryville is a small city with not too many food choices. Even though the Public Market is coming along nicely, it’s sometimes hard to know where to go for breakfast. I compiled a list of Emeryville (and Oakland) choices. I am sure there are a couple more, like the black bear diner and Denny’s. I am not a fan of big chains and that’s why I stuck with smaller places

  1. Doyle Street Café is a classical American breakfast spot (says the German…). You will find nice standard breakfast fare and delicious specials. I think their home fries are yummy. I like mine extra crispy. Open Mon–Fri 8AM–3PM
  2. Tribu could use a facelift, but the food is good. I get their breakfast burrito or chicken sandwich. Open Mon–Sun...

Two Things First Time Home Buyers Need to Know

Two Things First Time Home Buyers Need to Know

Buyers entering the real estate market are more savvy today than ever before.  Prior to the internet age, buyers relied heavily on their Realtor to feed them information and listings and wouldn’t even begin their search until meeting with and committing to a Realtor. Now, at least 90% of buyers start their search online, research the process and properties for months, often years before calling a Realtor.

In this new age of information, we as Realtors need to work even harder to find and maintain buyer clients and we do this by providing value and insight into the process. We offer our knowledge of the specific cities and neighborhoods in our market, inside scoop on upcoming listings, and our connection and relationship with other agents. 

Even though first time buyers, or buyers re-entering the market, have an endless supply of information and knowledge about the market...
