I just represented the buyers of 939 Del Ganado Rd, a well-maintained Eichler home in San Rafael which closed escrow yesterday for $705,000.
Built in 1961, this well kept 4 Bedroom / 2 Bathroom, atrium model Eichler Home (1,785 sq ft per tax records) was located in San Rafael's Terra Linda neighborhood and fit my clients needs perfectly!

I'm pleased to announce another "Just Sold" property in San Francisco! I represented the buyer of 848-848A Potrero Avenue, a beautiful Victorian duplex in the vibrant neighborhood of the Inner Mission. This property has been amazingly maintained and was in excellent condition for being constructed prior to 1900. Wonderful period details have been tastefully combined with modern updates. Both units are large one bedrooms, with the upper unit being especially attractive due to the beautiful remodeled kitchen/family room with views of Twin Peaks. There is a one car garage, a large rear deck and a landscaped backyard complete with a huge mature redwood tree.
This deal was a little challenging due to the…

I am pleased to announce that I have represented the buyer of 1783 Quesada Ave in San Francisco!
This was a bank-owned property located in the Bayview area of San Francisco, with 2 bedrooms and 2baths. Although it needs a little work such as updating the kitchen and baths, it has nice details including large rooms, hardwood floors, fireplace, large windows, nice entry and lower level family room, backyard and 1car garage. Best of all, it's light and bright and sits up on a hill at the top of Quesada St. and has VIEWS all the way to the Bay and beyond.
The buyer got an amazing deal for a single family house in San Francisco - $290,000! He purchased it with FHA financing and the entire transaction was extremely challenging. Because it was a…
Lock Down that Pre-Approval!

Over the past couple weeks I've received numerous calls from frantic borrowers who had opened escrow, but were still attempting to line up their financing. Apparently, some hadn't even begun the approval process, while others discovered that their approvals were empty commitments.
Borrower Beware: the loan process is infinitely more complex and time consuming than even last year. Lender guidelines are constantly shifting, banks are understaffed, and everyone is busy. When you need financing to purchase a home, the last place you want to find yourself as you enter into contract is at the end of a long line. You should also know that when issuing their "pre-qualification" letters, major lenders seldom do any work beyond…
