San Bruno Real Estate “Shake Up” 2010!
112 Georgia Ave. San Bruno, Ca. $419,000So far, in 2010, San Bruno real estate inventory is low making it a great new environment for homeowners who have been thinking of selling! Currently there are only 30 homes for sale ranging from $299,000 for a small one bedroom home to $1,000,000 brand spanking new homes in a new developement! Md range is about $550,000-$600,000.
With interest rates still teetering between 5 and 6%, home buyers are out in full force looking for good deals before the rates hike up!
What we are seeing is pretty quick sales of homes in the lower and mid ranges while the high end homes are taking awhile. They are selling though! It took quite a few months but the new homes in the Skycrest Develoment next to Lunardi’s have all sold! One most recently at $918,000! Read more
San Bruno Halloween Houses!
San Bruno sure knows how to celebrate Halloween especially if you live on Elm Ave. (Nightmare On Elm St.) Every year families crowd the streets, trick or treating by the thousands. Most homes who give out candy run out. Lines form in front of some houses and there are traffic jams on some of the narrow sidewalks! I saw news cameras one year on the corner of Elm and Clark! Decrations are always a hit! I have posted some for you to see!

Can I really buy a house at the San Bruno Farmer’s Market?
Karin Cunningham-"Your San Bruno real estate specialist at your service!"
Lee Ginsburg-"San Bruno residential and investment specialist!"
Lee Ginsburg and I worked a booth at the San Bruno Farmer’s Market last Sunday and had such a blast! We are always trying to think of ways to promote our buyers and sellers and when we heard that the San Bruno Chamber of Commerce was offering booths to promote businesses, we thought it was a great idea for us! Since our office, Prudential California Realty, is in San Bruno, I live in San Bruno, I do a good portion of my business in San Bruno, not to mention my kids go to school and play sports here, I knew a good amount of people that walked by! It was a really great experience!

Bruno All Stars 4th of July 2009The San Bruno Dale Wilson 4th of July Memorial Tournement was an awesome event! The 7-8 year old “Bruno” team came from behind in two of their games and won the championship title undefeated! San Bruno has always had a passion for Pee Wee leagues and All Stars. It’s a great American feeling in San Bruno when you mix BBQ, legal “safe and sane” fireworks and lots of baseball games at San Bruno Park!
