Hello!
Here we are at the tail-end of February and seem to be in the midst of, what I refer to as, “fake spring.” While the warm(ish) weather has brought out the daffodils and pink and white plum blossoms, with some rain and colder temps forecasted in the days ahead, I’m not putting away my winter coats and boots just yet. The East Bay “Spring Market”, however, appears to be actually blooming! Here are some stats:
NEW LISTINGS in February (Includes single-family, multi-family, condos & land)
Walnut Creek: 86
Berkeley: 50
Orinda: 25
Lafayette: 25
Moraga: 13
Montclair, Oakland: 9

Of course, an experienced, local agent will be your best resource whether buying or selling. It would be my pleasure to meet with you or be in touch with any one you know who is thinking about buying or selling real estate.
We are so fortunate to have a wide variety of interests, activities and organizations available to us in the Bay Area and here are some upcoming local events I plan to attend. Would love to know if you might be interested too!
Here are some notable events taking place in East Bay in March 2025:
Rotary Club of Orinda's 22nd Annual Crab & Pasta Feed
AAUW-OML 9th Annual STEM Conference
