San Bruno Music in the Park 2011

July 15, 2011 · · 2 Comments

 

It’s that time of year again! Hooray for San Bruno Music in the Park! This is a FREE event sponsored this year by Artichoke Joe’s, San Bruno Cable, San Bruno Rotary Club, the Shops at Tanforan, La Petite Baleen, Inc, and Lunardi’s Supermarket! The City of San Bruno Community Services Department is the one who put it together as well as some help from the San Bruno Chamber of Commerce. It should be a great experience this year with some new twists, I hear! Are there going to be food trucks?? I don’t know but it sounds like a great idea!

I enjoy this event every August with my family and friends! My kids usually walk around with a bucket of home made popcorn for sale! I’m trying to teach them to be entrepreneurs!

                                                                                                   Anyways, here is the 2011 schedule for Friday evenings 6:00 pm, Music in the Park!

July 29  Just For Kicks & West Bay Rhythm (Classic Rock & Soul)

August 5 Houserockers (Rock & Roll and R & B)

August 12 The Plastic Onion Band (Beatles Cover Band)

August 19 Tin Man (Classic Rock)

August 26 Groove Kings (Rock & Soul)

By the way, if you have been thinking of buying a house lately, you are on the right track! Two bedroom condos on the San Mateo peninsula are starting in the $200,000′s and single family homes are starting at $350,000! I am a full time real estate agent, if you didn’t know, and I would love to help you find a deal! It costs more to rent these days than to own your own place! We have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. Call or email me! I’d love to help! Thanks!

What is the perfect house warming gift…from your Realtor?

October 5, 2010 · · 5 Comments

I recently had the opportunity to represent two separate couples, no children, who purchased remodeled homes in the Bay Area. It’s been a pretty continuous trend of mine to represent people who are purchasing homes that require a lot of work. Bay Area homes are old, what can I say. This is not the case this time!

There is no need for Home Depot gift cards. Probably not a Lowe’s gift card either. I don’t want to give a basket with cleaning supplies and candy because they have all of that already! Wine and cheese, maybe? Gift certificate to a fancy restaraunt, maybe? I’m just not sure! I’m looking for suggestions! Thank you!

San Bruno is a Great Place To Live!

San Bruno house in the "Belle Air" neighborhood $399,000

San Bruno, Ca is an affordable and charming city on the San Mateo peninsula. Snuggled on a long. wide slope between San Francisco and Burlingame, the weather is usually in the 60′s with a little wind and hardly ever any fog!

We have the best public schools around, as well! As the PTA President of Allen Elementary School, I can give first hand testimonials, as I meet with the other PTA presidents monthly. We are a close knit bunch with all the same goals in mind, to keep our San Bruno children in the best learning environment possible! San Bruno parents really care about their city! Just ask the San Bruno Mother’s Club! Read more

San Bruno concerts in the park

For the last two summers I made homemade gourmet popcorn and put them in sandwhich bags for my kids to sell for .50 cents each. They were so darn cute! My 4 year old daughter carried her metal pail full of popcorn and my 8 year old son collected the money! I have pictures somewhere that I need to find and post!

Anyways, this year’s 2009 schedule looks like this:

Aug 7th- Livewire (Dance Party Band)

Aug 14- Unauthorized Rolling Stones (Tribute Band)

Aug 21- Cocktail Monkeys (Classic Rock, Pop, Variety)

Aug 28 Dave Crimmen (50′s Rock n Roll)

Be sure to come and if you see me or my kids selling popcorn, tell us you read our blog! Thanks!

Buyer’s Market?

July 22, 2009 · · 4 Comments

Buyer’s Market?  You bet it is.  I will be speaking about the low end of each market area. On the Peninsula and San Francisco we talk about Single Family homes priced under $700,000.  In the East Bay it is below $400,000.  Buyer’s Market yes but not in the traditional way.  Today’s buyer cannot expect to purchase a home for 20% off the list price, but they can expect to purchase a home 30-60% off of 2004 prices.  Today’s buyer cannot expect the seller to take care of all necessary repairs, but the buyer can expect to receive an $8000 Federal Tax Credit and an extra $10,000 State Tax Credit if they are purchasing a brand new home.  Today’s first time buyer cannot expect to be the only offer, but they can expect to receive the lowest interest rates in 40 years.  I think it is just in a different way.  

The Real Estate Market in San Bruno, South San Francisco, Daly City, San Mateo is hot just like the weather. Prices are based on supply and demand.  Demand is strong as all smart people want to take advantage of the buyers market.  By the way the $8000 Federal Tax Credit terminates Nov. 30 of this year.     Read more

Can I really buy a house in Daly City for under $400,000?

January 27, 2009 · · 6 Comments

Not only can you buy a house in Daly City for under $400,000 right now but in South San Francisco, Pacifica, and San Bruno as well. Most of these lower priced bargains are short sales and bank owned property. They are not always in the best shape or have a lot of bedrooms but they are opportunities that some people have been waitng for! Although there is competion again to buy in this price range, more and more homes become available every week. It’s sad on one hand but a hopeful first time buyer’s dream!        Read more
