    How does home flood insurance work in California?

    BySusie Wyshak October 4, 2023February 16, 2026

After the record-breaking wildfires in California, the risk of flash flooding and mud flows increase significantly until vegetation is restored — up…

    How to Age in Place While Selling Your House in California

    BySusie Wyshak January 28, 2023February 16, 2026

    Nature Murals Painted on Houses in Berkeley and Oakland

    BySusie Wyshak January 11, 2023February 16, 2026

    Murals on walls inside houses has been a time-honored tradition through the ages. In Berkeley, the murals adorning the walls of  Pauline Kael’s house in Berkeley became legend. More rare is seeing murals, or little “spot” paintings, on the exterior of houses. There’s nothing I love more than seeing houses that reflect the passions and…

    Better Than a Termite Report – Follow the Pest Inspector Like I Did!

    BySusie Wyshak December 10, 2022December 7, 2025

    True confessions: I never had extermination done after buying my house years ago. After all, no termites were crawling or flying around. How did we know if the termites were old school or a current infestation? Then there was a live termite incident. Three different pest inspection companies did estimates, with three wildly different recommendations….

    Why isn’t this Berkeley house selling?

    BySusie Wyshak October 5, 2022February 16, 2026

    This little North Berkeley duplex is in one of the most popular neighborhoods.

Let me know if this works for you.
