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!
Booooooooooooooooooo! 
Memorial Day 2009
Agents from Prudential California Realty in San Bruno showered the South San Francisco and San Bruno areas with American Flags on the Memorial Day Weekend. Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation’s service. Memorial Day was officially proclaimed in May 1868 by General John Logan, national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic. The Prudential agents say besides remembering those that gave their lives for us putting out the flags beautifies the neighborhood. After walking up one side and down the other side of the street putting flags in the front yards of all the homes we turn around and see the flags waving in the wind. “What a great sight”, they all exclaim. The wonderful fulfilling feeling surely outweighs the sore backs from bending down and the sore legs from walking up and down the hills. Over 5000 flags were distributed over this past Memorial Day Weekend. This is the second consecutive year the San Bruno office of Prudential has done this for their neighbors. Next year they are aiming for 10,000 homes.

Many sellers are determined to set their listing price higher than they are willing to accept so they have room to negotiate. With the New Millennium buyers they unfortunately will not get any offers. Today’s buyers are more educated than any others. The internet gives the buyers the opportunity to research all public records. They know the price of all the homes in the area that sold recently and are on the market. They know the trends, the cost per square foot; they know what the seller paid for the home and how much they owe and sometimes the improvements the owner has completed. If a home is over-priced the “New” buyer is almost offended that someone would expect them to purchase it at the “Over Valued List Price” so they don’t even make an offer. Many don’t even waste their time to view the home. That is the old school pricing method. My parents would have done that. Back then information was not so accessible. Read more
