I’m taking a break today from blogging about real estate and instead am going to blog about a popular new San Francisco app. However, first I want to share a picture of my favorite roof deck view this week on Broker’s Tour (pictured above). It is from the roof of a home at 2627 Steiner Street. It’s a nicely sheltered space with a heavenly view. I just saw this article in the NYTimes about a new app called, “Down to …
In recent years, I have had several listings where the seller was either in bankruptcy or on the verge of bankruptcy due to some personal misfortune. If you are a seller in bankruptcy or on the verge of bankruptcy or if you are a realtor representing someone who is, you will find the following article by Cathy Moran, a bankruptcy attorney, invaluable. Cathy assisted me through several such escrows and her help was priceless. One of the most valuable lessons …

I was about to write a post today regarding the SF market but decided to write something different. I don’t know about you but all of this news about the Syrian refugees is very sad and hard to get out of my mind. It’s especially hard to see photos of frightened children walking along or being carried by their parents. I am in the home business and these people are being brutally chased from their homes. If they don’t leave, …
One of the benefits of buying a home in San Francisco is that it opens you up to lodging around the world for free! How does this happen you may wonder. One site that offers you the chance to exchange homes is called HomeExchange.com. My husband, Michael, and I have enjoyed exchanging homes with people locally and around the world for a fee of about $100 a year through this website. We have stayed in beautiful homes and apartments in …
