GLEN PARK REAL ESTATE–January Recap
Hello Glen Park and Happy Mid-Wintertime! It sure has been rainy (needed) and cold (brrr). I even heard that next week it may snow! Would be fun to take another picture sitting at a picnic table in the backyard like I did in my childhood home in Noe Valley in 1976. Granted, I’ll look a […]

GLEN PARK REAL ESTATE — November recap
I just got back from my first real vacation since before the pandemic, and boy was that an adventure! I’ll spare you the details, but let me just say don’t get stuck taking a red-eye flight from an airport and town that closes down completely by 11pm. Any mishap will quickly become an epic disaster.

GLEN PARK REAL ESTATE–October recap
And just like that…it’s November! I often gauge the changing of the seasons going into the holidays by when eggnog arrives in the stores. Every year now it seems to be earlier and earlier.

With the 4th of July in the rearview mirror, we are now deep into summer and have a better idea of what this summer market is shaping up to look like. You’ll see some large overbids and great sales prices in the June numbers, and as always, there is still limited inventory in San Francisco. […]
GLEN PARK REAL ESTATE–May Recap
Summer is upon us! Historically, summer tends to be a slower season in San Francisco in general for real estate sales. During the last couple of years of pandemic lockdown, we haven’t seen that pattern as much because people were not traveling, but rather, they were moving into larger or more accommodating living spaces. There […]
GLEN PARK REAL ESTATE — April Recap
Happy May! I can’t believe another summer is almost upon us. Will things keep heating up, or will we see the lull that so many are anticipating due to it being the first summer in a long time where many people are planning on traveling? Personally, I’m not going anywhere this summer as I’ve got […]
