I love fun jewelry.  Cheap jewelry. Classy. Trashy. Flashy... I love it all. I long ago gave up buying expensive jewelry - like gold and diamonds.... OK, you caught me.  I NEVER have bought gold and diamonds, unless you count the 2 carat diamond I found, for which I bought a new setting.  But th...

When I'm in this backyard, its hard to look anywhere but at the gorgeous, serene statue at the far side of the pool. It's quiet presence compels you to look, no matter where you are, or what you are doing.   For me, it's just like a life vision. Or your life focal point. No matter where you are,...

Tough job, finding a home. And where the heck do you look to find out what's for sale out there?

The tenant in one of my listings is being booted out.  My seller has no choice.  They have to sell, and all the interest we have had so far, has been from families wanting to raise their kids with the big backyard.  No investors have stepped forward. So last weekend I called the tenant to see if ...

I remember the day I become a positive person.  I was about 7, and snuggled up on the back dashboard of my parents yellow and white Studebaker.  Looking for animals shapes in the clouds as we rumbled through the hills of Mt. Shasta , returning from our yearly trek to Seattle. My jokester Dad was ...

With a long face primed for sympathy, I get asked "How are you doing in this market?" quite frequently.  Well-meaning friends and others who know I'm a realtor, assume I am suicidal about THIS MARKET... broke, in debt, and have no one to sell to, sitting all alone in an empty office day by day tw...

Last night I delivered the keys to Gina and Scott for their new home in Briggs Ranch, Folsom.  They were moving from the Bay Area, away from their families, with 3 under-5 daughters in tow.  It was their first home. Pulling into the cul-de-sac, I spot a man pounding a sign into the corner yard.  ...

I would have given anything to have lived here as a teen. Instead, my parents ruined my life!   But now, you can live here.
