real estate: A little bit about Mill Valley
- 02/01/07 11:36 AM
Mill Valley is a small town in Southern Marin County, which is just North of Sausalito and at the foot of Mount Tamalpais. (Sausalito is at the opposite end of the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco.) Mill Valley got its name from back in the day when a saw mill was established in the center of downtown, which is now Old Mill Park. Mill Valley was a natural place for this since it is abundant with redwood trees, including Muir Woods National Monument.
Mill Valley is home the Mill Valley Film Festival every October, and many celebrities on a daily basis (Sammy Hagar, … (0 comments)

real estate: A little bit about Larkspur
- 02/01/07 11:03 AM
Larkspur is a small town in Marin County and it could be my favorite town in the County--for many reasons. First, the location is so convenient. You have easy freeway access to the Golden Gate Bridge, which takes you to San Francisco, as well as the Richmond/San Rafael Bridge, which takes you to the East Bay. There is also the Larkspur Landing Ferry, if you don't want to drive into the City--and many people don't want to, especially if they can't find a place to park.
Larkspur also enjoys great weather, benefitting from the cooling of the summer fog without actually being right … (2 comments)

real estate: A little bit about San Anselmo
- 02/01/07 10:19 AM
San Anselmo is a town in Marin County which is just West of San Rafael, the County Seat. This town was incorporated in 1907, after the 1906 earthquake and is home to the San Francisco Theological Seminary (which opened in 1890) and is considered the antique capital of Northern California.
San Anselmo Avenue is the downtown area and is home to several festivals as well as many wonderful restaurants like Comforts, Insalata's, Fork, Taco Janes and Cucina Jackson Fillmore. There are also several good shops for clothing, jewelry, accessories, antiques--even a winery and automotive repair. (Hey, it can be hard to find a … (0 comments)

real estate: A world without Real Estate Agents?
- 01/24/07 11:15 AM
A local housing bubble blog here in my neck of the woods says that we should get rid of all real estate agents. They go on to say that all you need is a car and internet access and when you are ready to write an offer, contact an attorney who is familiar with contract law. Why, they ask, would you entrust such a transaction to someone who has very little training and is ensconced in an industry where "educational requirements are minimal" and , "dishonesty is structurally encouraged".
I know what I bring to the table, and so do my clients. A … (4 comments)

real estate: Minimum Standard of Care
- 01/23/07 04:37 AM
Are there any markets out there where a clearly defined standard of care is outlined so that Buyers and Sellers know what to expect, and licensees know where the standards and boundaries are? I know this should be self-evident, but it isn't always. Other industries, like food service, automotive repair, educators, etc. have very specific standards of care. And they are not self-policing, as we seem to be. Other industries have very strict guidelines and standards--and penalities for violating them.
I mean, for example, meats need to be stored at very specific temperatures, handled in very specific ways, cooked to very … (2 comments)

real estate: All those "days on the market" - is it the agent and not the property??
- 01/22/07 12:53 PM
I was blogging with another local 'Rainer this morning and thought that while the content seemed to be a no-brainer, perhaps I should share it anyway. (Before you read on, please note that I am not making a blanket statement about all agents.)
I have been showing property, in the $1M range (not that the price should matter), to a certain client for the past 3 weeks--give or take. He is well-qualified and ready to purchase. The problem here is not with the client, but with the agents (not all) that are listing the properties we are looking at.
It has been in … (54 comments)
