I have a new listing in Pointe Marin, in southern Novato. It's a regular sale, so no long waiting for bank responses, plus it's in excellent condition.
Built in 2004, this was the model for Centex Homes' largest floorplan. It's had only one owner. A 5th bedroom was recently added, so there's plenty of room in this 3,600+/- square foot home.
Other features:
5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms
Ideal cul-de-sac location
Crown molding
Granite kitchen counters
Marble tile master bath
Wide-plank pecan hardwood floors
Two bedrooms are on main level
Office/sitting area in master suite
Enormous master closet
Bonus room upstairs
Professionally landscaped backyard
Close to the newly renovated Pacheco Plaza, Hamilton Marketplace and Marin Country Club
Pre-sales are underway! This is the last week to take advantage of the low introductory prices (starting at $799,000) on the last 6 homes being built - the ones you can customize now! Nowhere else in Marin can you buy a brand new home, semi-customized, for less than $900,000.
Check out these new pictures of the construction progress!

Marin County Short Sale List - Single Family Homes For Sale
"Your complete source for Marin short sale listings."
September 21, 2009
What is a short sale? It's where the sellers owe more on their mortgage than the house is now worth, so they must ask the bank to accept less when they sell. These are often "pre-foreclosure" properties. The major banks are starting to see the light, favoring and encouraging short sales versus foreclosures. That's good news for everyone, including buyers because it should shorten the buying process. Now, a typical short sale can take 2-4 months to close.
Short sales can present a great opportunity for home buyers because the seller's emotion is taken out of the equation, and the price becomes all about market value based on recent sales (and not what the seller "needs" or "wants" to make on the sale.)
