Clayton, CA a fabulous small city nestled beneath our gorgeous Mt. Diablo State Park .  So much to offer in Clayton. I know, because it is where I call home myself!

Oh, and you'll often horses and riders walking thru town (or tied up behind the local saloon), coyotes roaming around and wild turkeys galore - seemingly … (0 comments)

homes for sale: Listings and short sale updates! - 08/11/08 12:16 AM
So some say short sales never close, never work and are not worth showing... here are some Contra Costa and Alameda County short sale listings available and some noted successes (for details on any listing go to Contra Costa Real Estate.)  Much of a short sale success will depend upon the listing agent and/or the entity performing the negotiations with the lender(s).  Do your research!  Ask questions!  Work with only an agent experienced in short sales.

homes for sale: The unintended victims of foreclosure: THE PETS - 12/22/07 10:22 PM
Our local paper today ran a heartbreaking article today about the pets that are being left behind when homes are foreclosed.  Since some are forced out in sheriff evictions, or moving to a "no pets" rental, it must be that the former homeowners feel they have no choice. Agents specializing in foreclosures are finding pets left behind, sometimes locked in the homes, sometimes outside, but alone (or already dead) nonetheless.  We all know its bad enough when we see the end result of an eviction after foreclosure.  Kids toys, evidence of good family times, all remind us that a family has lost … (15 comments)

homes for sale: Take your taxes with you! - 08/19/06 08:00 PM
One of the most frequent questions I get is about Proposition 60 and Proposition 90.  Prop 60 and Prop 90 are two amendments directed at those over 55 (or permanently disabled).  This gives people the ability to transfer their original year tax base to a new property that is equal or lessor value (certain exceptions apply). That means that if you bought a house long ago for 400,000 and are paying taxes based on that amount, you can now sell your house, buy a new one for equal or lessor value of your home's current market value (say it is now … (2 comments)
