A San Francisco Map Like You Haven't Seen Before
I have awesome friends & blog readers. Stuff I wouldn’t find anywhere else come jumping into my email inbox on a pretty regular basis. For a while there, I had stopped blogging about San Francisco Real Estate (and all of the other awesomeness here in San Francisco), but now that I’m back to cranking out blog posts, I can start sharing the awesomeness with you once again.
Like today. I got an email that said “something for you to blog about” with a link.
Curiosity piqued, I opened the link and VOILA! Awesomeness!
The link took me to a magic page where it said:

First Time San Francisco Homebuyers? HGTV wants YOU!
I guess I’ve always sorta wanted to be on TV.
I’m not very photogenic – I always get caught with expressions that look like I’m smelling something rotten, or in some ridiculous shot where I am devouring piles of snow, or where I look like I’m actually taking a nap.

Will San Francisco See an Increase in Real Estate Inventory?
We seem to be seeing an increased inventory of real estate in San Francisco. So far, we haven’t just been seeing MORE inventory, but we’ve also been seeing BETTER inventory!
Hope They Brought Umbrellas!
I love watching planes land at SFO! Considering the on again, off again torrential downpours we’re having, this plane was lucky to land in between raindrops.
Single Female in Search of Home for Sale
The title of the post almost sounds like a personal ad, right? Well I was taking a look at my list of San Francisco clients that are looking for a home or have recently purchased a home and I realized that about 35% of them are single women.
Hot New Bar Opens in Outer Sunset
Yes folks, this cool Outer Sunset spot has been a secret that only locals have known about the last few days. But today, you get the scoop!
What's the Right San Francisco Neighborhood for You?
There are just under 100 unique and distinct districts in San Francisco according the the San Francisco Realtors Association.
Other sources will list just over 100. But no matter how you count them, there’s no denying that there’s A LOT of variety when it comes to what neighborhood you ultimately choose to call “home!”
Doggone It – Where Will San Francisco's Dogs Go and Play?
We San Franciscan’s love our dogs. In a 2006 National Geographic article, it’s estimated that SF has 745,000 human residents and 110,000 canine ones! (And a gratuitous plug here, the pic up top is from the the Animal Care and Control’s website. His name is Moe and YES, he is available for adoption, as are dozens of other cuddly and loving animals!)
Another Glorious Sunset at Ocean Beach…
I’ll never get tired of these San Francisco Sunsets. Good thing I’m lucky enough to call the Sunset District home and this is just steps from where I’m fortunate enough to live. If this isn’t a million dollar view, I don’t know what is!
Loans Through Mortgage Brokers Might Get Cheaper!
If you’ve been working with a good and honest mortgage broker, you’re already getting the lowest rates possible. A good mortgage broker knows that providing folks with lowest rates and best terms is the right way to do business, regardless of the amount of his paycheck.

Selling Your Home? Stash Your Stuff!
I snapped the above picture today while I was lost in the Union Square Garage. It wasn’t that I forgot where I parked my car – I clearly remember that it was parked in 3E. Unfortunately, I had forgotten how to actually GET to 3E. Saying it was a long day wins the understatement of the week award!
Brrrrr….. It's Cold in San Francisco (NOT!)
I almost caught myself complaining today that our February weather had dropped from last weeks high 70’s to today’s (brrrrr) mid 60’s. I mean, I had to wear a jacket, in SF, in February. How inconvenient!
San Francisco Natural Hazard Maps
In light of the recent earthquake in New Zealand and the fact that in any given week, California land is shaking dozens of times, I thought this would be a good time to share these natural hazard maps with you again. Looking at the USGS Map, just in the last day, the Cloverdale area, about an hour and a half north of San Francisco, has had dozens on little shakers.
