san francisco: San Franciso Italian Tradition: Sodini's In the Heart of North Beach - 09/26/09 03:08 AM
 


Sodini’s owned and lovingly operated by my friend Mark Sodini is the closest original thing to Billy Joel’s “Scenes from an Italian Restaurant.” It is a combination of old school San Francisco tradition, a well established San Francisco restaurant running family, and Cheers–a place where you belong the moment you walk through the door.
The mouth watering home made gnocchi, stone oven fired crisp buttery pizzas, the rack of lamb, or any one of the ravioli dishes make me forget my mom’s cooking. Sodini’s is an incredible value with prices, see the menu, which defy San Francisco’s stratospheric … (0 comments)

san francisco: Stairways of San Francisco: Awesome Tool to Find Incredible Walking Tours - 11/29/08 05:43 AM
I just stumbled upon what may be my next great tool for fun and exercise. For San Francisco Realtors, this tool could be a great method to understand your neighborhood, provide clients with sightseeing tips, and look like a hyper local expert. The tool is called "Stairways to San Francisco" which is a feature of the eclectic if not shocking SisterBetty.org.
Example of Stairways: The Filbert Steps
One of the most beautiful, scenic, and historical walks you can take is the Filbert Steps. Nestled below landmark Coit Tower, the Filbert Steps are a wood plank tour through a slice of San … (0 comments)

san francisco: Do You Have A Date Night? Don't Allow Routine To Dictate Your Love Life - 09/02/08 05:21 PM
Susan and I have been together for a year and a half and we discovered early on a not so secret way to keep things fun: date night. Because we often work odd hours and weekends part time, we decided we needed a "partition" to our week. As a result, we made Wednesday nights date night in our household.
What is Date Night To You?
For us Wednesday date nights are the following:
1. No internet access
2. Barbeque on the deck and watch the boats float by
3. Dinner in San Francisco
4. Movie and the sofa with a bowl … (8 comments)

san francisco: Sodini's Italian Trattoria: Billy Joel Wrote The Song Now You Make The Memories - 06/05/08 11:01 AM
Mark Sodini owner Sodini's Restaurant North Beach-San Francisco Realtors are sometimes expected to be like cabbies: have all the information about their town at the tip of their tongue. If you are the one stop shop for your region then consider having a "lock" restaurant where your clients can go and enjoy themselves. A place that will reflect well on you as a knowledgeable  Realtor--a new friend. For San Francisco it doesn't get any more down to earth and friendly than Sodini's. Frankie, Deano, Sammy, and Joey would have had hours of fun, Vito Corleone would have done a deal in … (1 comments)

san francisco: Federation of Exchange Accommodators: “Professional Trade Organization Representing Qualified Intermediaries Misses the Mark?” - 07/09/07 11:18 AM

The Federation of Exchange Accommodators is the only professional trade organization to represent Qualified Intermediaries; for those victims and interested parties following the Ed Okun 1031 Exchange disaster, does it not strike you odd that the word “Qualified” would be associated with this business? According to all my research, input from industry professionals, and stories from victims of recent 1031 disasters, there is no official qualifications needed to start a 1031 exchange company.
The FEA is missing a very valuable and vital function: political power. If the FEA were able to create a platform to force new laws and regulations, … (5 comments)
