Isn't it amazing that one of the most critically important things we can say about a new listing is that: it's a REGULAR SALE!. It's not a short sale. It's not an REO. And how we all get excited when we see a listing that not only looks good but is also priced very well?

Here's a wonderful example under $500,000 in popular Laurel district of Oakland.

$449,000.00 - Darling Bungalow in LAUREL District with fabulous expansion

Location: LAUREL

HIGH Walk Score. REGULAR sale. 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Just above MacArthur, with easy access to I-580 and public transportation. So many things right about this darling bungalow.

Immaculate and pristine are the first words that come to mind upon entering. The hardwood floors are in tip-top shape and look like new. Then surprise! The expansion that blends a dining area with a large kitchen and a family room brings smiles.

During get-togethers, people tend to congregate in the kitchen. Well THIS kitchen is where the party starts and ends. "Belly up to the bar" of the large kitchen island with granite counters and built-in gas stove/oven. The chef will never run out of volunteers to be the food tasters.

The super-sized and low-maintenance patio with pavers is a good place to fire up the grill for outdoor entertaining.

Best of all, if one needs to run to the store, this is only one block away from Farmer Joe's grocery famed for its organic offerings. Or make a dash for one of the restaurants on MacArthur.

Hi, all

Thanks for your kind comments.

Regarding Vflyer --- I'm glad Active Rain will allow this post. I haven't tried Postlets format in a blog, but I have seen people with widgets for either Postlets or Vflyer. I just like Vflyer a little better.
