I love it when a client who has lived in the same house for 20 + years thinks they know how to price a house better than me.  Don't get me wrong, as a homeowner myself, I pay attention to what sells in my neighborhood, and feel I have a pretty good idea of what homes are worth, but when a seller over prices their house by 20% compared to recent comps, it can create a little conflict.  I do value my clients opinion even if I think it's too high.  My clients are the boss, and if they insist on over pricing, I'll work with it as long as they are flexible to reality and will lower the price within a reasonable time.My recommendation is to always price a home as close to it's value as possible taking into consideration market fluctuation and some other specifics that might apply to a particu...

It is going to be a hot one this weekend. Here are 5 places to beat the heat:1) Lake IsanjoI love Lake Isanjo because it is rarely crowded. Even on a hot weekend there maybe less than 20 people around this large lake. Why? Because it's hard to get to! Parking is a good 2+ mile hike away. Yes, it's hard to get to, but it's worth it. Park at Spring Lake and hike the Spring Creek Trail up to the Lake. It's worth it. Or park at Annadel State Park and hike Warren Richardson Trail 2.5 miles to the lake A picnic bench sits at the shoreline of Lake Isanjo Where: Annadel State Park but best access is from parking at Spring Lake Park 5585 Newanga Ave Santa Rosa Fee: Parking $7 at Spring Lake Dogs: No dogs in Annadel State Park More Information: Annadel 2) Spring Lake Lagoon:It's much easier to ge...

My mountain bike is in the shop due to a broken spoke but it was such a nice day that I really wanted to go outside and get some exercise.  I took my dogs to Hood Mountain Regional Park and hiked the Valley View Trail. The Valley View Trail is a moderate  4.4 mile hike with fantastic views of  Oakmont, Rincon Valley, and Sonoma referred to by the author Jack London as the Valley of the Moon.  This park is under-used, rural, and is a great place to view wildlife, listen to birds, and GET LOST.  Seriously, people get lost frequently so BRING A MAP!Here are the steps to do this hike: Drive to the park parking lot on Pythian Dr Hike up the Lower Johnson Trail to Merganser Pond Trail (1.3 mi) Hike the Merganser Pond Trial to the pond (.4 mi) Once at the pond, walk counter clockwise around th...
