All marketing has a "spin" to it, the tale we tell others, so you sorta come to expect it. There is always a translation, it seems, to the truth somewhere. Truthiness, I guess, is what Colbert coined it, or Alternative Facts, which is an oxymoron and coined by an idiot. So, it should not have sur...

I have been hanging on to my First Bloom photos for a while now, trying to find a break in my Sacramento real estate scribblings to include these pictures in a blog. Plus, it gives me an opportunity to identify the plants and flowers in my yard. It's not like I spend much time working in my garde...

Worth is such a relative term. If you talk to some Sacramento Realtors, they will puff out chests, slam fist to the table and mansplain about market value, how to determine comparable sales, but that's about as far as they get. They don't know another way to look at the potential sale. Which is w...

Here is a good question for you. If you don't know who your buyer is, how will you recognize her when she knocks on your the door? I'd say that after 43 years in the business, I have established a pretty good idea of exactly who our buyer will be for most of my listings. The buyers are different ...

A potential client asked me the other day how could I possibly take care of his listing when I am so busy. My jaw dropped. People who are not in the business have no idea how Sacramento real estate is performed. This guy is in a business like, oh, let's say bail bonds. Telling me he has the large...

As anticipated, I've received a ton of inquiries on my new listings. Our tight inventory market is driving demand like crazy, plus buyer's agents are curious as to how we will handle an open house coming up. I like to enter my listings into MLS with an open house already scheduled for Sunday. Buy...

This photo is from the west side of the Astoria condo in Natomas. The right side of the picture is actually the front of the condo, facing south, and it has a glorious view of the greenbelt. Plus, being a corner unit, the professional landscaping, park-like atmosphere, separates the next group of...

One of the questions I get from our first-time home buyers is whether you can hear people on the second floor if you buy a first-floor condo. I suspect they have this vision of creaky floorboards or listening to heavy footsteps or loud voices, like maybe you'd get in an older apartment building. ...

If I could say one thing to people who are facing foreclosure that could make a difference, that one thing is call a real estate agent. You might not want to sell your home but you might not have any choice. At least if you sell the home, you will probably get paid for your equity. If you let the...

Even if you've never heard of The Band, you will enjoy this neighborhood in Citrus Heights.  Lots of trees, winding streets and a creek called Cripple Creek. Adults who did not grow up in this area might never notice the creek, but you can bet their kids know it's there. To me, it's the creek tha...
