See my Midtown Sacramento homes & condos profile

Proudly featured in Sacramento Magazine's October 2008 loft issue. Don't let anyone fool you: Sacramento isn't the sleepy cow town of yester-year. Sure, the suburban neighborhoods offer an easy escape from the bustle of Downtown with just a 15-minute drive, but it's the urban core that gives Sacramento it's personality, character, and charm. I'm Rob McQuade with McMartin Realty and I specialize in Sacramento's urban neighborhoods: Downtown & Midtown Sacramento. It doesn't matter whether you're looking for urban "soft lofts" or condominiums or you prefer a more traditional Midtown Delta Highwater, Victorian, Tudor, or Craftsman—Midtown offers the best of a broad spectrum of architecture and design combined with a cool, walkable community. Just about everything is within easy walking distance, and even in the heat of a Sacramento summer you'll enjoy strolling these beautiful, tree-lined neighborhoods! Midtown is home to great developments like the L Street Lofts, Sutter Brownstones, and 1600 H Lofts. Search Midtown Sacramento homes at ForSaleinMidtown.com for FREE and sign up for email alerts when new homes come on the market. Or you can explore information on all the great loft and condo projects in Midtown. Want something a little edgier or more industrial? You'll love some of the cool contemporary homes that Downtown Sacramento has to offer, like Downtown Sacramento's greenest living option, 9 on F. The SoCap Lofts offer a slightly industrial look and feel on the outside but luxury and comfort on the inside. And, of course, you can search Downtown Sacramento real estate online at ForSaleinDowntown.com for FREE, too. If Downtown and Midtown aren't your thing, you can search the entire Sacramento area at ForSaleinSacramento.com. My knowledge of the area translates to money in your pocket! In fact I've focused my energy so intensely on Downtown & Midtown that I created and continue to host a weekly real estate forum for REALTORS® serving these neighborhoods—the largest forum of its kind in the greater Sacramento region!

    Jean, I agree that bringing down the cost of MLS participation for those of us who do business in multiple areas is an important consideration. I also share Joseph's concern that recent partnerships haven't had that effect. But, more to the point, in many respects I think a) you get what you pay for and b) a one-size-fits-all approach might not be the answer. I don't know about your experiences, but I've been pleased at the level of involvement I've been able to have in (and the responsiveness of) my regional MLS, MetroList Services. If my MLS is replaced by a megaloMLS that serves the entire state, will I still have that kind of access and support? Will I get the level of service I've come to enjoy when membership goes from some 15,000 to 150,000 or more? And can a statewide MLS effectively be all things to all members? Until the answers to those questions are a resounding "yes", I'm glad to stick with my MLS because I'm satisfied by the pace at which they've adapted to a changing environment and are adopting new technologies--and I'm not as confident that a statewide MLS will be able to turn on a dime like MetroList has.

    Blogging is a lot of work! I find myself working a 6- or 8-hour day AFTER my regular workday just to keep most of my websites fresh... Instead of creating just one blog, I've broken things up into several blogs: topical, regional, and even neighborhood-specific blogs. Instead of posting to one blog daily, I post to several different blogs once or twice a week (sometimes less, shame on me). Of course, each blog links back to one or more of my websites, but because the blogs have a real content focus I'm generating more quality leads from readers of those blogs. I typically have one or two people register on my websites and request info on properties every day. It's been a bit of work, but I've developed a rhythm to my blogging and it's definitely helped my search engine ranking. Happy blogging! Rob McQuade Sacramento http://www.forsaleinsacramento.com
