    Berkeley & Oakland House Prices – Are They For Real? (Video)

    BySusie Wyshak July 28, 2022December 8, 2025

    Is that low house price for real? (“It’s in my budget!”) Berkeley and Oakland house hunters are all too familiar with house listings at prices that seem too good to be true. They often are!

Luckily there is someone with his name living locally...I'm going to gamble and mail it to him. Or should I try to find family related to the addressee?

Either way finding this miniaturized letter, which they photographed to minimize mail bag transportation, is a lovely reminder of what so many have given up for freedom in America. 

Today is a day to reflect how lucky we have been to live in a democracy. Let freedom reign AND ring!

I love my work as a real estate agent in #Oakland I love my work as a real estate agent in #Oakland ! 

Today at a broker tour home preview, I met the seller who had planted the grapefruit tree in front. He not only gave me a fallen fruit, but he said I could graft from his tree onto new rootstock. He said the variety has been said to be rare by a pomologist.

Talking California citrus at a property for sale is my happy place!

At the Bay Area ADU Expo, I interviewed 3 companies in the tiny home and ADU space to hear what they're up to. There are lots more making flat-packed modular, pre-fab that get craned in, and of course custom builders. 

Check out my post with a few other companies who were at the expo: https://susiewyshak.com/bay-area-pre-fab-adu-vendors/

DISCLAIMER! Be sure to do your own research and due diligence to find out what is allowed by your town, what is allowed on your property, and laws coming down the pike that might be a good reason to wait to do anything. All pricing should be verified as well.
