| | Hello Marin Locals,
As fall arrives, we welcome cooler evenings, settle into seasonal routines, and embrace new beginnings. This is also a prime time for buyers and sellers to realign their real estate objectives before the holiday season approaches.
October offers a great opportunity to reconnect with the community after a busy summer. This month’s newsletter features a curated selection of events, the latest housing and mortgage trends, and a recap of sold homes. Don’t miss a special event from Marin Charitable, an organization I'm proud to support.
Read on for all the Marin Local details, and as always, feel free to reach out for assistance with any real estate needs.
Warmly, Robin 🧡 |
