Penthouse views at Pre-Foreclosure pricing! (1254 Washington)

Annoying real estate marketing take…what are we on, three?
We don’t know what is more annoying, getting spammed three times by Will Smith (agent not actor), or… go ahead… click through and name that tune. It is a decent pad though. Not so sure about the interior decorations, but the location is top notch! –240bayview.com [Tiburon]

Life at the St. Regis is pretty damn good *
You know that when I talk “life”, I talk real estate, because real estate is my life, and therefore life (real estate and living) at the St. Regis is pretty damn good.

A done deal at 200 Brannan (#109)

We can all pack our things and head for more affordable, greener pastures. That is, of course, unless you love yourself some loft! After … Continue reading A done deal at 200 Brannan (#109)
