The main shopping street is Solano Avenue, which goes up the hill into Berkeley's Thousand Oaks neighborhood.
A builder by the name of Mc Gregor built a lot of homes in Albany. They're characterized by large, distinctive, living room windows, interesting fireplaces, and split level design (with the bedrooms over the garage). The distinctive hill on the west side of Albany is the real "el cerrito" (little hill) in spanish. The city of El Cerrito is the next town north. Gambling buffs will enjoy visiting Golden Gate Fields, just west of I-80 Albany has one of the highest rated school districts in the East Bay. When everyone was clamoring to buy an Albany home I coined the phrase "Albanian Pavlovians" - buyers who salivate at the thought of new homes on the market.

We Value Your Business And Appreciate Your Referrals | Almost all our clients have been referred to us by their friends, family, local neighborhood Realtor, or found us on the Internet. One of the nice benefits of a referral based business is that we get to work with people who are motivated, financially qualified, highly educated, decisive, pleasant, and have interesting backgrounds (one client won a Gold medal at the Olympics). What's particularly rewarding is how many of our buyers and sellers have become friends.
If you're planning to buy or sell a home, we'd appreciate the opportunity to show you how you'll benefit from our services. And, if you know a friend, neighbor, or family member who is buying, selling, or relocating anywhere in the United States, we'll be happy to check our extensive database of highly qualified Realtors and refer you to a great local Realtor. |
