Here are some of the top ones to look out for, according to Holly Schaefer, Realtor at Corcoran Icon Properties in Northern California. “It’s great as a quick fix for yourself, but it doesn’t show well to a potential buyer who’s about to make the largest purchase of their life,” Schaefer said.
“Buyers should weigh mortgage rates and the possibility of them going up or down with how much they can comfortably pay every month,” says Holly Schaefer, a real estate agent at Corcoran Icon Properties.
“Hesitation is something that I have seen cost buyers money firsthand. If you see a home you’d like to buy, don’t hesitate to make your offer,” said Holly Schaefer, realtor at Corcoran Icon Properties.
Unfortunately, all school districts do not offer the same quality education. Consequently, it’s not uncommon for buyers to base their entire search around a specific school district, said Holly Schaefer, a realtor at Corcoran Icon Properties, based in Marin County and Sonoma County, California.
“Penngrove is a charming small town in Sonoma County that feels like stepping into a cozy TV re-run. Though it’s just a one-light town tucked into the foothills, it offers easy access to modern conveniences while providing a peaceful escape from city life,” says Holly Schaefer, a West Coast-based realtor with Corcoran Icon Properties.
Holly Schaefer, Realtor with Corcoran Icon Properties, said that the Marin County suburbs of San Francisco have been especially kind to sellers this spring. “It’s a small, beautiful place that’s easy to commute to San Francisco, Oakland or even Silicon Valley by bus, ferry or even bike. Topping it off, the schools here are also incredibly desirable,” she said.
“Holly was excellent to work with during a very competitive market (understatement). She worked diligently to ensure that I had timely offers made, and the house she secured me we saw, made an offer, and were accepted within HOURS! Highly recommend her services in Marin.”
