• Current market updates from the State level

  Last week in my blog and newsletter I wrote about rural neighborliness. I must have touched a nerve - I have received more feedback on that topic than on any of my previous posts/newsletters and all of it has been positive. It feels really good to know Read More...

• July 4th and other happenings

  The past few weeks have been busy! I had several clients come into town to look at property and it looks like two of them have found the places they want to buy. Have they made offers yet? No. And I think this is indicative of our current buyer's Read More...

• Market optimism

  Some weeks I inwardly groan when I realize that it's time to write another blog post. What am I going to write about this week?

• Mid-year statistics

  As I write this the sun is out and most of the clouds seem to be dissipating and we are promised a beautiful weekend. I certainly hope so; as much as we needed the rain, I'm really ready to feel some sunshine and warmer temperatures. Not to mention Read More...

• End of the home buyer tax credits?

  I was asked recently if there was any further talk of extending the Federal tax credits to home buyers. The previous tax credits were set to expire last November, 2009, but were extended until this past April 30, 2010; at that time a second credit, for Read More...

• Disclosures

  When buying or selling property you will find that there are a lot of disclosures, so many I will only cover some of them here. Mostly it involves the seller disclosing material facts to the buyer. What are material facts? Anything about the property Read More... Posted Thursday, May 06, 2010 11:58 AM by Anne Fashauer | 0 Comments Filed under: Real Estate, Buyer Information, Seller Information

• Spring is here!

  This weekend is jam-packed with stuff to do! There's the Cops N Robbers ball in Anderson Valley, blues in Point Arena and too many choices on the Mendocino coast to name. One is going to be hard-put to decide what to do - unless you're me and Read More...

• Contingencies

  I'm sometimes asked questions about a property by a prospective buyer to which the answer is not immediately known. Some of these questions can be quickly tracked down and answered but sometimes the type of question is best answered during an escrow. Read More...

• Home buyer tax credits expiring

  The two home buyer tax credits are expiring at the end of April. To take advantage of them, besides meeting their general requirements, you need to be under contract to buy a home before the last day of April. This should also be a wake-up call to anyone Read More...

• Local attractions and the Big Apple

  You know how you can live in a place and still not take advantage of all that there is to offer? For years I lived in San Francisco, but other than the first trip to Alcatraz when I was a freshman at USF I never went there again. Well, this past weekend Read More...
