I'm thrilled to have assisted my client secure a great deal on a triplex in San Rafael. She
was able to accomplish her goal of buying a property that would enable her to live
closer to work and enjoy great weather, while securing an investment that
would provide a stream of income from the other units to help pay for it.

Ross, CA has
always been home to small-town beauty as well as luxury properties. Now it
carries the cache of making the Forbes list called, &quot;America's Millionaire
Capitals&quot;. In fact, Ross was the only Marin town to make the prestigious list
at number 20.





To make the list according to the Marin
IJ, the average annual income of residents who are in the highest tax
bracket (incomes over $200,000/year) must be $1 million per year or more. Ross

I just helped my client, Pat Kuleto,
sell his floating home he calls Lilypad, located at 2350 Marinship Way #3, Sausalito. While
I was able to generate unparalleled media and online coverage, it was a challenging
property to sell because it required an all cash buyer, who was willing to take
on some deferred maintenance and a month-to-month berth lease. Ultimately, it
sold for $10,000 above the appraised value for $320,000, making for another
happy client in the Marin real estate ... ]]> </description>

            <description> <![CDATA[ 






High-end real estate in Marin is still experiencing a
buyer's market. Luxury
properties priced over $2 million can be had at discounted prices. Buyers
in this price range don't need loans, which makes them more nimble. Because
there are fewer qualified buyers in this price range, they can cherry pick, and
strike deals in their favor. In other words, cash is still king.





Home sales in the Marin luxury real
estate market were flat when comparing the first four months of this... ]]> </description>
