Demand for housing in Redwood City has been growing over the past few years and we don’t think that demand is going anywhere anytime soon. Redwood City is right in the heart of Silicon Valley and is still an affordable place to buy a home. So whether you’re thinking of moving down to the Peninsula to start a family or just want to live in a city that’s close to work, Redwood City might be the spot for you.

With condos and luxury apartments popping up left and right in Redwood City, what’s the appeal of having a single family home? While its nice to have everything “new,” there’s still a lot to be said for owning the land your home sits on.

When clients are looking to buy a home on the Peninsula, Redwood City is coming up more and more as a possible location. Naturally, a lot of questions come up about what it’s like to live here, or buy or sell a home here. I thought it might be helpful to put together a series of FAQs with some of my thoughts on the different neighborhoods, the schools, the community, and the local market.
