Living Here

On 1 Jan 1975, my first New Year’s Day here, I went on a hike in the Berkeley Hills. The flowers were fragrant, skies were blue, and it was warm enough to just wear a t-shirt. I knew I’d live in Berkeley for the rest of my life!

When Carol and I  became real estate agents, we focused our expertise on representing home sellers and buyers of homes in Berkeley and nearby communities, so established BERKELEYHOMES and created the BerkeleyHomes.com web site! 

Here’s where we talk about what makes living here special —events & festivals, arts and entertainment, parks, and more. Got kids? The schools section provides links to our school districts and nearby private/independent schools.

We’ll help you move here with relocation resources, rental, and city information. Our bike, bus, BART and car tips helps you get around town. For other “moving” events, read the earthquake section.

Welcome to the San Francisco East Bay. We love living here; you will too!

Wonderful weather, great food, interesting people … you’ll love living here too!  Let’s talk
