Help Me to Help You!

By

As this little San Francisco real estate blog gets more popular (it averages 1500 unique visitors a month), more and more of you reach out to me through email and instant chat to ask questions about specific properties, about the real estate market or even about blogging in general (though I can assure you that I’m no expert on that topic.)
And while lots of you email me, a fair amount also use the instant chat feature you see on the right hand side of the screen as well which lets you send me an instant message whenever I’m online. 
Unfortunately though, I can’t be online all of the time because I need to be out in the field helping buyers find SF homes or working with sellers to get their SF properties ready for sale.  And when I’m not online – you can’t have a live chat with me. 
So please, please, please – if you’d like to send me an offline message, either email me or be sure to leave a way for me to contact you in the chat window (email or phone number are equally as effective). 
Because if you take the time to ask me a question – I want to give you an answer!
But,  I can’t respond if I have no way of getting back to you (and some questions are just too personal in nature to post for the world to read).
Now – all that being said, give me a holler if you have any questions about San Francisco real estate!  I’m always happy to help! :-)  And be sure to leave your contact info – help me to help you! 🙂

Google Your Way to Your New San Francisco Home

I can’t believe that I didn’t catch this one on my own – I’m looking at Google Maps everyday for one thing or another.  But it HAS been HOT!  And the heat must have made my brain melt just a wee bit. 
Luckily SF Citizen is on the lookout!  While I was trying to guess just how hot it was going to be in the rest of the City (at my house on Great Highway, it was about 10 degrees cooler than it was in the rest of the City all day long!), SF Citizen was already reporting that Google is now showing San Francisco real estate listings on its map feature!
SF Citizen reports that Google says:

Google Maps is evolving from a driving directions and business search tool, to a comprehensive representation of all the world’s information, on a map.” That’s why Google Maps started to integrate different layers of information when you search for an address and it added a new “More” button to enable layers for photos and Wikipedia articles.

While it ain’t no MLS Property Search, it’s a start.  I’m guessing that soon enough, Google will figure out a way to make the search even more comprehensive. 
Thanks to SF Citizen for being on the ball while some of us were lacking focus due to the current heat wave.  And if you were melting just like me, grab yourself a hunk of ice to cool yourself down, because Thursday is supposed to get ever hotter!
Stay cool San Francisco, stay cool! 😉
