Welcome to the good life in Berkeley!

I first came here many many years ago as a UC Berkeley student and am so glad after decades, the café is thriving with a parklet and a loyal following with its good old-fashioned, healthy comfort food.

What's for lunch? The Berkeley Farmers Market of course.

If Mediterranean style, extra space in an ADU and a central location* near BART top your must-have house hunting list (or your clients' lists), the time to visit is now!
 
* a neighbor said he never had to get a drivers license in his 80ish years in the area because he walks and takes public transportation everywhere around the Bay Area...including  counties across the Bay!

YouTube Home Tours & Tips
Convincing aspiring home buyers NOT to buy a house or to understand what it will take to fix up a house is JOB #1 as a buyer's agent. Showing houses after a torrential rain is a joy.

How is the property draining?
Is any water getting into the foundation or the house?
Where is the water coming from - the roof or the earth or both?

What isn't job #1? Getting you to buy any old house.
