A call for action: Be nice to new agents! Being the new guy at any level- professionally, scholastically, and even in your own neighborhood, is never easy. In real estate, being the new agent can be both exasperating and lonely. Here are a few reflections on my early days as a new agent.
     1) The "Why isn't anyone talking to me?" syndrome. Even though most agents work for a specific umbrella company, we are indeed really self-employed independent contractors on our own. Another reason for the cold shoulders? Statistics show that oh, about two-thirds of new agents probably will be … (0 comments)

East Village residents- it's never too early to start planning where you'll be watching this fall's college and pro football games in the neighborhood, providing you want to leave the confines of your own condo. While San Diego offers many choices for sports bars, let's focus on the ones you can actually walk to and from, as we all enjoy a couple of cold ones during the games.
     I love Bub's Pub at the Ballpark which has recently opened with fanfare in the shadow of Petco. True, it is not game-tested yet, since it opened after football season, but I … (0 comments)

Anyone who lives in the fine neighborhood of East Village and hasn't visited the San Diego Zoo- shame on you!

As a transplanted Bostonian, I am continually amazed at just how lucky we Downtown residents are to have a professional baseball team in our back yard with all the benefits of affordability and charm. Yes, the Padres are not a year-in and year-out contender, but so what? They play the highest level of baseball in the world, and mark my words will be a good team again within three years. Do you know that there are at least three bars or restaurants near Petco Park from which you can actually see the game (Altitude Lounge at the Marriott, Wine Steals/Proper Gastropub, … (0 comments)
