Dear clients and friends:
Welcome to August! Our monthly blog includes all areas of Sonoma County and the Sonoma Coast.
Real Estate Snapshot: The numbers for the second quarter of 2023 are in. They show low inventory is persisting. In Sonoma County, there were 34% fewer sales than in the second quarter of 2022. However, inventory has been creeping up slightly over the last few weeks, and we are hearing of more homes being prepared to come on the market this fall. Over the last month we had the pleasure of representing buyers on a great coastal home and buyers who purchased a beautiful parcel to build a coastal property upon. Check out a couple of our coming soon properties in Santa Rosa and Sebastopol below. We’ve included a link to beautiful secret spots on the coast to avoid the crowds. And of course, all the County Wide and Coastal market reports.
We had a blast last month at the Coldwell Banker Realty Awards Celebration in San Franciso honoring top producers in Northern California for our 2022 production. The band was amazing, the venue was beautiful, and accommodations were at the St. Francis on Union Square. A good time was had by all.
