sausalito: Marin County, CA Luxury Home Sales (January 2011 | Pacific Union International)
- 01/04/11 09:14 AM
With 6 trades in December 2010, the luxury property real estate market in Marin County (properties and estates over $2 million) experienced one of its slowest months. This, despite the fact most economists and consumers feel that that the overall economic and housing environments are improving. Indeed, for real buyers there are extraordinary opportunities available right now. Pricing in the marketplace (especially for homes that have remained on the market through the Winter months) is softer than ever and “value” is evident in the luxury segment. In line with normal seasonal adjustments, the inventory of luxury homes for sale is very … (0 comments)

sausalito: Marin County - San Francisco Ferry Service
- 07/31/07 04:30 AM
The ever-more-popular ferry services into San Francisco are really worth a try either for leisure or for commuting. The high-speed ferries take just 30 minutes to get you from Larkspur to San Francisco (and the older boats taking a leisurely and more ponderous 45 minutes). The ferries provide some of the very best views of The City, the Golden Gate Bridge, The Rock (Alcatraz), Angel Island, San Quentin, and the waterfront communities of Tiburon, Belvedere, Greenbrae, and Sausalito. Taking one of the slow boats can be absolutely delightful on sunny days. You can grab a beverage at the bar (yes, there are … (0 comments)

- 05/04/07 03:27 AM

sausalito: Sausalito, Marin County, California
- 02/09/07 04:33 AM
Sausalito, named by a Spanish explorer for the little willows, or saucelitos, growing along its shores, always has been a vibrant area. In the 1800s, the area was known as Whaler's Harbor, and sailors and whalers flocked to the port for its safe harbor, saloons, bordellos and gaming houses. After its incorporation in 1893, the town became a major ferry and railway center, and then a shipyard during World War II. Through the 1960s, Sausalito carved an enduring reputation as the bohemian haunt of artists, writers, actors, poets, and others who spent their time on waterfront houseboats. Today, Sausalito is a … (0 comments)
sausalito: Marin County, California Absorption Rates Very Low
- 02/03/07 04:46 AM
Marin County, California sits just north of San Francisco (across the Golden Gate Bridge) and boasts some of the most dramatic and expensive homes in the Bay Area. Homes in Marin (Mill Valley, Sausalito, Tiburon, Belvedere, Ross, Kentfield, San Anselmo, San Rafael, Greenbrae, Corte Madera, Larkspur, and Novato) are not entirely immune to the effects of rising interest rates and the overwhelming barrage of mostly negative media coverage of the "state-of-the-market." But, prices seem to have stabilized and sales seem to be on the rise as the year wears on, based on anecdotal evidence and early observations. I will report on the … (0 comments)
