In the beginning...

The inagural posting is in progress. We are real estate agents in Gilroy, and we are interested in being able to pass on some information we have about real estate. Real Estate in Gilroy is ever-changing, just as it is all over the state and nation. We will use this site to convey information about the real estate market in Gilroy, as well as in general. Look over what we have to say, then post your comments. At the very least, let us know you visited!

We are Team Patereau, made up of Susan and Rick Patereau. We are real estate agents with Intero Real Estate, in Gilroy. You can visit our website to get our bios and other buyer/seller specific information. Here's the link: www.teampatereau.com.

W're working on postings that touch on the following topics:

• Appreciation of Real Estate - how relevant are the published figures to your property, and what should your expectation be when you are trying to use the information.
• The Valuation Formula - putting your numbers in a chart vs. having a professional from your area prepare a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA)
• Moving into a Buyer's Market, from a Seller's Market - what do Sellers have to do today to sell their property.

There are other topics to discuss. Let us know what you want. Post it here.
