Hayward Improvements - Please Improve My Property Value

I am definitely a newbie in terms of all things real estate. Over 7 years ago, I was offered and took advantage of a restaurant regular to pay and train me to work in his mortgage lending firm. I did not finish the CD training, therefore I did not work in his firm. I did not do much in terms of purchasing our home as DB worked closely with his mother, a seasoned and reputable Real Estate Agent, in PA. But since I have a condo and a new home in another East Bay town, I better start paying attention to the real estate market and the city in which they reside.

As we rushed to get a renter in our condo back in December and moved out the following month, deconstruction of the Centennial Hall began and continues...

When people asked me whereabouts in Hayward that I lived, I replied "Near Centennial Hall" and they knew exactly where it was. I remember seeing the marquee having Hawaiian Tropic contests there, gun shows, autograph memorabilia shows, proms and I even went to a bonsai tree exhibit there. The parking lot was over the Safeway. I used to take Bevo there to throw the ball around because the HOA didn't allow dogs off leash on the property. I also would go down there to jump rope before work. DB says new condos will be built in its place.

Our condo is rather spacious with quite a few upgrades. (My tenants are happy, thank goodness.) Will the new condo complex make our property value decrease or increase by hopefully improving the neighborhood? I suspect it will increase. In addition, the 238 expansion will also be close by. The downtown area with a movie theater is within walking distance and has definitely improved.

I will keep following Eric Kurhi on Twitter and hope Hayward, The Heart of the Bay, continues to grow.

My favorite places in Hayward:
- Akaihana - Tell Shawn I sent you!
- Buon Appetito - Tell Martino I sent you! The Penne alla Vodka is the best. Add broccoli. :)
- Alpine Cleaners on Foothill - The friendliest service!

Are you worried about your property value? What's the story in your town?

  1. I found your Blog really interesting. The fees that are charged for the notary services vary depending on some different factors like the complexity of the papers as well as the number of papers that are needed to be notarized.
