Dear clients and friends:
Welcome to September! Our monthly blog includes all areas of Sonoma County and the Sonoma Coast.
We want to congratulate our Grand Prize Winner of the Coldwell Banker Back to School Giveaway. Winners were announced last month, and the Grand Prize was a $500 gift certificate to Target. Over the years, we’ve had quite a few winners of these monthly giveaways, but you must enter to win! On Tuesday 9/12, you’ll receive our email to enter between Tuesday 9/12 and Saturday 9/30 to win a $500 or $100 gift certificate to Home Depot. If you don’t receive our “Client’s for Life” monthly emails and would like to, just reach out.
Real Estate Snapshot: Did you read in the PRESS DEMOCRAT ARTICLE about the ransomware cyberattack on our Multiple Listing Service in August? It effected regional MLSs around the country including San Francisco, Marin, Sonoma, Mendocino and Napa counties. Our markets basically came to a grinding halt while the effected company did not pay the ransom, but instead rebuilt a more secure system. MLS information is almost completely back on track now, though we are waiting for some historical data and photos of sold properties to repopulate in the system. The Fed held off on raising interest rates again this month. Now, the fall market is upon us when we typically experience a jump real estate activity the week after the Labor Day holiday.
JUST LISTED: 1061 Tilton Rd, Sebastopol. 3 bed, 3 bath, 2,668 square foot home on 2 acres+/- with a 3-car garage. An architectural cosmetic fixer listed for $1,195,000. WEBSITE.
