Ms. San Francisco Real Estate (Janice Lee)

Find out what will make you fall even deeper in love with your neighborhood. When you’re in the market for a new place to live, it helps to remember the golden rule of real estate: You’re not just buying or renting a home — you are also becoming part of a neighborhood. All neighborhoods are not created equal and there’s no such thing as the perfect neighborhood; everyone has different needs and desires. However, there are components common to all great neighborhoods. As you evaluate the best aspects of a prospective neighborhood, you’ll want to match them to your daily needs. 1. Lifestyle match Is the neighborhood in sync with your current lifestyle? Both renters and homebuyers tend to gravitate to areas with similar demographics.

The summertime real estate season is as hot as the weather, but you might want to postpone your purchase until fall. For the first time in recent history, October surpassed June as the most popular month to get married. And these autumn-loving brides may be on to something: Although the spring months are notoriously the best time to buy real estate (as well as have a wedding), fall may be the new ideal season to buy a home. Hear us out: One obvious reason is that it’s easier to get from open house to open house without questioning if you’ll need an AC repair ASAP upon moving into that home for sale in Phoenix, AZ . Also, families on a mission to move into a new home before school starts are out of the picture. Besides these two more obvious reasons, here are seven expert insights on why you should consider a fall real estate purchase. 1. There’s less competition Competition for houses drops off in the fall, a time many people consider to be off-season in real estate. But t

The Bay Area’s excellent job market and high wages, pleasant climate, and natural splendor are attracting plenty of new residents from all over the globe, and here’s another feather in our cap: San Francisco homeowners enjoy the highest quality of life in the U.S. In its inaugural Home Happiness Index survey , HomeAdvisor ranks all 50 states and 36 major metro areas based on homeowners’ level of contentedness.
