February Newsletter

March 11, 2020

Hi Everyone,

I don't know about you, but time is flying by! As we head into March, I am gearing up for a busy and strong spring season. Inventory is still low and interest rates are a little over 3%! If you are thinking of buying a home, NOW is a great time! Compared to an unpredictable equity market, real estate is known to be one of the most stable forms of investment.

In this month’s newsletter:

Exciting new construction update at One Steuart Lane & Four Seasons Private Residences
Read my feature in the SF Chronicle as a Luxury Condo Expert
Listings & Off-Market Offerings by Mia Takami Real Estate Group
Market Update - including video of current market conditions amid global virus & lowest home mortgage rates in history

And don't forget to get to know a little more about me at the end with our monthly Q&A.

Hope you enjoy the read!

One Steuart Lane

One Steuart Lane living is uniquely compelling; just steps from the best of downtown, yet blissfully immersed in the fresh air and energy of the waterfront. The site is considered San Francisco's last major residential development near the Embarcadero waterfront. Designed by famed architecture firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, the 20 Story Building will feature 120 condos. Ranging from one to three bedrooms & penthouses, these homes will feature views of the Bay Bridge and Ferry Building.

One Steuart Lane Amenities:

Sun terrace with outdoor jacuzzi
24-hour valet and concierge
Private fitness center and spa
Lounge featuring full kitchen and dining

With signature Four Seasons service and outstanding amenities, owners enjoy unparalleled access to a personally tailored lifestyle with experts such as fitness gurus, wine consultants and art curators. Our clients are granted VIP access to the site with private hard hat tours, exceptional service, pre-released pricing, and the opportunity to be some of the first buyers for this project.

146 Tower Residences ranging from $2.5M - $46M
18 Early-1900' Aronson Residences ranging from $3M-$7M

Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry bought a condo in San Francisco's soon-to-open Four Seasons Private Residences. While his $31M Atherton estate will be his primary residence, his Four Seasons home is less than 2 miles away from the Chase Center and can be used for short stays in the city. The new condo is also just a few blocks from International Smoke, the steak and BBQ restaurant Ayesha Curry owns with celebrity chef Michael Mina at the Millennium Tower at 301 Mission St.

Would you like to be The Curry's neighbor? Are you curious what the Four Season lifestyle entails? Contact us for a personalized private tour, resale value and comparative market & property analysis today!
