The Market WOW ... we are busy! In fact, from Redwood City-North we are experiencing multiple offers being the norm, especially in San Francisco. From Woodside - South the activity has also picked up with many properties under the $1.5 million mark experiencing multiple offer situations. Overall It seems that there is a balance in the every day market, although the top end looks like it will still take a while to come back. If you are after more information, E-mail me at bleary@cbnorcal.com or give me a call ... as always, the best number to catch me is 650-207-2100. R. Brendan Leary
