THE REAL (ESTATE) STORY
By Larry Underhill
Broker/Owner
CONGRATULATIONS to Bill and Teresa Costanza on the successful SALE of their Woodbridge home! Happy endings and beginnings all around. I want to thank Lodi Realtor Michelle Mazzero-Mayo for her excellent job as Buyers’ representative on this transaction. Thanks, Michelle!
The Costanzas were referred to me by longtime clients and friends Mike and Debra Haas. They live around the corner from Bill and Teresa Thanks SO much for your trust, folks! It does my heart good.
Footnote: Mike and Debra are both in the nursing field. Mike can tell stories of his ER experiences, digging bullets out of gang-bangers and sewing people together. I was amused when, during our last transaction years ago, Mike said, "I don’t know how you handle all the stress of your job, Larry!" Stress? My job doesn’t involve blood or body parts! THAT’S stress!
ONE OF THE HIGHLIGHTS (for me) of last week’s Mastermind Summit in San Diego was hearing Lou Tice, author of the book Smart Talk and founder of the Pacific Institute. Notable quote from Lou Tice: "All meaningful and lasting change starts on the inside and works its way to the outside." We all have "limiting thinking" that holds us back from growth. Tice had some great things to say! I recommend his book. (It’s been around a long time, but the truths are timeless).
PRICE REDUCED! My listing at 2177 Eaton Drive has been reduced another $20,000 to $549,950! 3000 square feet of nicely-appointed home with FIVE bedrooms, THREE full baths, and THREE-car garage! My Sellers decided to make their home the absolute best value around in this price range. Going, going…
ANOTHER HIGHLIGHTof my San Diego trip was a day spent with my soon-to-be-wed daughter Angie. Throughout their childhoods, I enjoyed monthly "Father-Daughter" and Father-Son" days with each of my three chilluns. We’d get away to the mountains or the beach or the City and just hang out. Memory-making days, spitting off of the Golden Gate Bridge, walking along the cliffs near Point Reyes, or hiking around a mountain lake. Now that the kids are grown, the opportunities for such days are rare. That’s why this day with Angie was extra-special.
Angie and I covered a lot of territory in a short time. I recommend the 30-plus-mile red trolley tour of San Diego and Coronado Island! Be a tourist! The trolley stops at the good spots, and you can get off and on all day, spending as much time as you like at every stop.
DOG DAYS OF SUMMER: One place that’s NOT on the trolley tour is Ocean Beach. I always like to stroll to the North end of the beach, where you’ll see more dogs with silly grins than you’ve ever seen in your life. All breeds and sizes, they’re chasing balls and Frisbees into the surf, dancing with glee in circles around their owners, and generally in a state of "dog heaven". Dog Beach is just a happy place! (Note: Angie observed that every owner seemed to be carrying a plastic bag full of sandy dog pucky. An occupational hazard that comes with doggies. Not my favorite thing to carry around on the beach, but the dogs’ evident joy more than compensates for that minor distraction).
OPEN TODAY from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m.: 5201 East Woodbridge Road! Statesman’s own John Manguso will be hosting this fine home. Look for his ad in today’s tab.
LISTING APPOINTMENT! Time to go. Have a great week! See you next Sat.
