We’ve seen some fascinating things over the decades we’ve spent helping buyers and sellers buy and sell San Francisco real estate. Without revealing names, addresses, or other identifying details, this San Francisco real estate podcast pulls the curtain back just a bit to give you an inside look at San Francisco real estate purchases and sales. From the Mission to the Excelsior (where each of us sold our first homes) to Pacific Heights, Nob Hill, Russian Hill, South Beach and beyond, these are real San Francisco real estate stories.

E38: April Market Update

April 14, 2018

Prices are up, volume is down, buyers are exhuasted and sellers are…? A smaller pie can cause some awful table manners, and all of this is causing some agents to behave very badly indeed. Welcome to this week’s episode of Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast.

March 07, 2018

Last week Matt’s mum joined him on the podcast and shared her real estate experiences with us.

E31: Things We Can’t Unsee

February 21, 2018

Amazing shoe collections, a toilet in a closet, and steel reinforced doors are just some of the unusual things we see in this business. Some amazing, others…not so much. This week on Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we focus on the things we wish we could un-see.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Escrow-Out-Loud-E031-Things-We-Cant-Unsee-.mp3

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Escrow-Out-Loud-E030-Whats-In-a-Name.mp3

Strange Terms

January 17, 2018

Re-cleaning carpets, installing cabinets and adjusting tracks for closet doors. This week on Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we are talking about strange terms in contracts that we’ve either received or written or heard about before!

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Escrow-Out-Loud-E026-Strange-Terms.mp3

 

Commission Constructs

January 10, 2018

A deal is a deal and an agreement is an agreement, right? Last week we talked about ‘real houses’ and the trend that sees developers building more condos in the city. So, this week on Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we thought we would talk about new construction commission agreements in San Francisco.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Escrow-Out-Loud-E025-Commission-Constructs.mp3

 

A Real Home

January 3, 2018

Happy New Year everyone! This week on Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we start off the year with an interesting question: what makes something a ‘real house’? Recently Britton discovered that, according to some, the home she has been living in for the past decade + isn’t a “real” home. Apparently, the only “real” home is a completely detached stand-alone, single-family house?

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Escrow-Out-Loud-E024-A-Real-Home.mp3

 

Project Open Hand & Other Great SF Charities

December 28, 2017

While during this festive time of the year many of us are taking the time to be with our loved ones and think about all the things we are grateful for, for some, the holidays can be an especially challenging time of year. Most people know about the big national projects such as the SPCA and Best Friends etc., but there are a lot of great causes to consider right here in San Francisco. So, with that in mind, this week on Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we go through just a few of the local charities that we love and have worked with in the past.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Escrow-Out-Loud-E023-Project-Open-Hand-Other-Great-SF-Charities.mp3

 

Was That In Your Business Plan?

December 21, 2017

That’s a wrap!
2017 has been an eye-opening, crazy, intense year. And, while opening a brokerage was not on our to-do list at the start of the year, it ended up being a real highlight of the year for us!

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Escrow-Out-Loud-E022-Was-That-In-your-Business-Plan.mp3

 

‘Tis The Season

December 13, 2017

‘Tis the season, but is it the season to buy a home? On this week’s episode of Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we talk about timing and if there is such a thing as the perfect time to buy or sell a house.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Escrow-Out-Loud-E021-Tis-The-Season.mp3

 

Latte Adjacent Avenues

December 7, 2017

How do San Francisco home buyers go about choosing a neighborhood to live in? One of the things we love about San Francisco is that each neighborhood is unique with its own particular character and feel. Choosing a place that feels right can be a very subjective process. This week on Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we talk about a few of our favorite streets, and how those thoughts might help you consider your priorities when choosing a place to call home.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Escrow-Out-Loud-E020-Latte-Adjacent-Avenues.mp3

 

Open Concept Thanksgiving!

November 28, 2017

Small rooms, smaller closets, chamber pots and formal dining rooms. Welcome to another episode of Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast. On this week’s Thanksgiving episode we talk about houses and house styles!

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/Escrow-Out-Loud-E019-Open-Concept-Thanksgiving.mp3

 

I Need A Man To Sell My Home

November 15, 2017

Britton, I Need A Man To Sell My House. Or, sexism in real estate.

Opportunity or Offal, Off-MLS Sales in San Francisco

November 10, 2017

A legend exists in San Francisco about a secret, tree-lined, magical area of affordable houses. Off-market homes for sale in San Francisco – opportunity or offal? Personally, we don’t know of any magical place with easily affordable San Franciscso real estate, but we sure wish we did. Welcome to another episode of Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast. This week we talk about non-MLS (Multiple Listing Service) listings and finding off-market homes for sale. Join Matt and Britton as they guide us through some of the pitfalls to avoid when searching for that perfect property!

Angry Dogs in Elevators and Overweight Chihuahuas

November 1, 2017

Pets in condos. Cats. Chinchillas. Iguanas. Dogs. San Francisco is, after all, rumored to have more dogs than children. What happens when dangerous animals roam the halls? Or when innocent Fido gets heavier than the building weight limit? This week on Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we talk about a subject that’s near and dear to a lot of people’s hearts – pets and homeowners’ associations (HOA’s).

Discriminating Sellers: Sell Only to Short People or Offers Anytime?

October 25, 2017

A Realtor in San Francisco is required to present each and every offer received on the property, right? Well, not exactly. While a seller can absolutely be discriminating in the review of offers, they may not discriminate on an illegal basis. This week on Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we talk about offers.

Episode 14 – Agency Disclosure Podcast In Search of a Title

October 18, 2017

Loyalty, confidentiality and the exercise of the utmost care are just a few of our duties to our clients, what are some others? This week on Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we talk about one of the most important, and at the same time least understood, concepts in real estate – agency relationships.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/EOL-E014.mp3

 

Episode 13 – Would You, Could You, Will You Be My Agent?

October 11, 2017

Should you walk into an open house and ask the agent standing there to write an offer for you? That’s the heart of this week’s episode. But first… Matt and Britton have started a new real estate brokerage, Jackson Fuller Real Estate! Congrats to Matt and Britton for their new San Francisco real estate offices in the Westfield at 845 Market St., Suite 450. Unfortunately, in his excitement to move into the new offices, Matt messed up and armed the wrong mic when recording this podcast episode. Our amazing audio engineer did his best, but we apologize Matt sounds so distant.

Episode 12 – Agents Behaving Badly

October 4, 2017

Welcome to Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco real estate podcast! In previous episodes we’ve touched on some interesting behavior from clients, but what happens when agents themselves are behaving badly? In what might become a recurring theme, welcome to this edition of Agents Behaving Badly! After listening to Episode 4 – Bye Felicia about a bad BMR listing agent some delightful clients reminded us of another property situation which was a prime example of an agent behaving badly.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/EOL-E012.mp3

 

Episode 11 – Sketchy Showings

September 27, 2017

Private showings. Open Houses. When a buyer is ready to buy, they obviously want to see homes. What happens in homes across San Francisco during private showings? Generally, nothing of note. But every now and again, something unexpected does happen.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/EOL-E011.mp3

 

Episode 10 – Is Anyone Home?

September 20, 2017

How are open houses in San Francisco different to other markets? In this episode of Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we talk about how open houses in a seller’s market such as San Francisco – really do – sell houses. Open houses do more than just sell homes in SF – take a few minutes and listen in to what unexpected bonuses open homes can provide!

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/EOL-E010v2.mp3

 

Episode 9 – Places in Weird Places

September 13, 2017

Above a Bar? In the middle of an industrial neighborhood? Off a lobby? Through a garage? What are some of the weirder places you would live? Is hiring a crane to move your furniture in a deal breaker? Give a San Franciscan a little bit of space, and pretty soon you’ll have a pretty awesome home. San Franciscan’s are creative urban dwellers, and we chat about a few of the more challenging places and spaces where people live in San Francisco.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/eol9_thats_an_interesting_location.mp3

 

Episode 8 – Cash Changes Everything

September 6, 2017

Cash changes everything. Why do sellers like cash offers? If all sales are all-cash to the seller at the end of the day (one of Britton’s least favorite sayings), what’s the difference? In this episode of Escrow Out Loud, our San Francisco Real Estate podcast, we look at all cash offers for San Francisco homes. From the dynamics of an individual purchase to the way a competitive market changes in response to cash offers: cash changes everything. Here’s a 2012 blog post we wrote about how cash changes everything for everyone as well.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/eol8_all_cash.mp3

 

Episode 7 – Elevator Kryptonite

August 30, 2017

In this episode – Elevators! As a little kid, Matt wasn’t much of a fan of elevators. As a little person, he still isn’t. City life is a vertical life here in San Francisco, and every broker’s tour or property tour involves lots of stairs and typically a few elevators. From historic old buildings with accordion-style safety gates that you latch yourself, to the most modern of elevators that whisk you to the stars so quickly your ears will pop! Hop on, this episode of Escrow Out Loud is going up!

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/eol7.mp3

 

Episode 6 – It’s About Time

August 24, 2017

In this episode – It’s About Time! Time is of the essence, and weekends and holidays count! A real estate offer has two basic components – price and terms. OTime is one of the most important terms in a real estate offer, and timing is to the offer process as location is to the actual home. In other words, while life in your new home might be all about location, location, location, making a deal happen (or not happen) it often about timing, timing, and timing!

Episode 5 – Bigger Than a Boat

August 16, 2017

When your frame of reference is a boat, homes in San Francisco appear generously sized.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/eol5.mp3

 

Episode 4 – Bye Felicia!

August 9, 2017

A strange tale that involves a deed restricted “below market rate” home, an out-of-area agent, and an asset manager.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/eol4.mp3

 

Episode 3 – Are Buyer’s liars?

July 28, 2017

No, but it’s hard to describe something you can’t explain.

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/FullRender-ep3-Buyers-Are.mp3

 

Episode 2 – You never know…

June 21, 2017

https://media.blubrry.com/escrow_out_loud_san_francisco/p/jacksonfuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/FullRender-ep2-You-Never-Know.mp3
