The Taste of East Sac 2019
We are a little over two months away from the Taste of East Sac 2019 and it’s time to save the date and purchase your advance tickets! I had to miss the event last year but I’m looking forward to being there this year and hanging out with all of my friends, past clients and neighbors this year. Saturday July 27th will be the 11th annual Taste of East Sac. It is once again going to be hosted at the Greek Orthodox Church at 600 Alhambra Blvd from 6:00 to 9:00. Over 40 local restaurants, wineries and breweries will be serving up a variety of their best food and drinks to over 500 neighbors and guests! Come out for the food, drink, music, silent auction and a great evening with your friends and neighbors. As with most great East Sac events, a complementary bike valet will be there if you prefer not to drive. ...

One of my favorite East Sac Events in coming up quick with Pops in The Park 2019 starting on June 1st! Due to the upcoming water vault project in McKinley Park we won’t have a concert there this year and instead East Portal Park will get to double up with two concerts this year. As usual, the music will be great, there will be plenty of food and drink vendors and even a free valet bike parking. The proceeds benefit local project and it’s a great way to spend the day lazing around with hundreds of your neighbors. Concerts start at 6:00 but the socializing and snagging the best seating areas start well before that.

We’ve got new updates on Sutter Park this morning! The builder has almost completed the cities approval process for the floor plans and they have their conditional public report from the Department of Real Estate. They will start building their onsite sales center and model homes in April and they should also release the official pricing in April! We will finally know what the Sutter Park Garden, Classic and Traditional Homes will cost! We’re very close now and I can’t wait to see the houses go up in here. I look forward to helping several clients with their purchase in one of the hottest new developments that I’ve ever seen. What are your guesses on the pricing? I would love to hear other peoples thoughts in the comments....
read moreSutter Park Sales Office and Model Homes
Tim Lewis Homes has confirmed that they will be building model homes and a sales office for Sutter Park. This is a shift from what I heard they were originally planning of doing where they would pre-sell homes without model homes to tour. They have done this at some of their developments but I’m very happy that we will have model homes to look at in Sutter Park. The model homes for the Traditional Homes will be on lots 47 and 48. The model homes for the Classic Homes will be on lots 42, 43 and 44. The model homes for the Garden Homes will be on lots 39 and 40. The sales center will be on lot 46. The Custom Home lots have already been selling and they are down to just 5 remaining lots out of the original 12 available! One of the lots that had already sold went to a local investor who plans on building a custom 4,500 square foot home on the .36 acre site. He listed it on the MLS and is already in negotiations to pre-sell that home for $2,250,000! If this is any indication of what the demand is in this development, all of these houses are going to go quickly for record setting prices. Let me know if you would like me to send you the links to the current lot listed for sale for $729,000 or the custom home listed for...
read moreHow much would you pay for an empty lot in Sutter Park?
The custom lots in Sutter Park will be going on sale very soon. How much would you pay for one of them? These are the few lots in the North East corner that are not being developed by Tim Lewis Homes. The lots will be ready for building on them and a new owner can hire their own contractor to build their dream home as long as it meets the Sutter Park neighborhood building requirements. The lots that are going up for sale range in size from .25 acres up to .42 acres (10,800 square feet to 18,700 square feet). How much would you pay for a large buildable lot in East Sac’s new Sutter Park neighborhood? How much do you think they will actually sell for?...
read moreSutter Park Pre-Approvals
Tim Lewis Homes just sent out an update to everyone on the interest list. They are starting to take pre-approval for interested buyers. No prices yet, but you can start the process if you are that serious. Any buyer of a new home in Sutter Park will need to be pre-approved through either US Bank or Safe Credit Union to eventually make a purchase. You can go directly to their website for pre-approvals here: The Home Buying Experience It also included links to the builders website with the floor plans and digital renderings of the front elevations of the homes. I’ve noticed that some of the floor plans have multiple options for what style the house will look like and others have only one option published so far. I’m sure that all of them will have multiple options based on my experience with Tim Lewis Homes. You can see the Garden Homes floor plans and digital renderings here: The Garden Homes The Classic Homes here: The Classics The Traditional Homes here: The Traditionals I’m pretty excited that we are officially getting communications from the builder about the properties...
read moreSutter Park Floor Plans
I’ve reviewed all of the floor plans for the Sutter Park Garden, Traditional and Classic homes and I love them! I’ve toured many of their homes in the other Tim Lewis developments as well as the ones that the builder thinks will be the closest match in the finishes to the Sutter Park homes. I can honestly say that I’m even more excited about this project than when I first started tracking and blogging about them 6 years ago. I’m looking forward to helping several of my clients buy homes in here as soon as they are...

I have new information on the development at Sutter Park Neighborhood! Below are the square feet, bedrooms and bathrooms for most of the houses that will be released in Sutter Park. The great news is that there will be a one story versions in each segment of homes, something that I’ve heard many buyers want. They haven’t released the pricing yet but I’ll post that as soon as I have it. I’ve been following the development and posting about it here for over 6 years. I’m excited that we will finally see some homes being sold this year! I plan on staying in my wonderful 1936 built East Sac home but as an East Sac Realtor I have many clients that I’ll be helping make the move into one of these new homes.

read more36th Annual California International Marathon
This Sunday December 2nd will be the 36th Annual California International Marathon! Get ready to cheer on 10,000 runners completing this marathon through our amazing city. Also get ready for some serious road closures! If you thought the Run to Feed the Hungry made it tough to navigate the streets, you haven’t tried to cross town when the CIM is going on. For us East Sac residents, the key times are the closing of J Street from 8:00 am until 1:30 pm. This closes J Street from the bridge to Fair Oaks Blvd all the way to Alhambra Blvd where the race takes a little jog to L Street and closes down L Street all the way to the finish line at the California State Capitol. Come out and cheer on the CIM which is certified and sanctioned by USATF and is a Boston Marathon and US Olympic Trials Marathon...
read moreSutter Park Neighborhood builders are Tim Lewis Communities and Urban Elements!
The official announcement for the builders of Sutter Park is out! Here is a link to the Sacramento Business Journal article by Ben van der Meer with all of the official information: https://www.bizjournals.com/sacramento/news/2018/11/19/sutter-park-developer-names-tim-lewis-urban.html Some of the most interesting details I read in the article are: Tim Lewis Communities will be building out 88 homes. The company is finalizing the architecture plans and hopes to have home plans on its website soon. They project that the first homes should be ready in about a year. I expect to see model homes sooner than that as well as designs, pricing and pre-sales. While the entry level condo price is projected they didn’t quote an entry level home price but they did give an estimated upper end of $1,800,000. Urban Elements’ Julie Young will be building out 11 condo’s above a 2,700 square foot retail section. Construction for the mixed-use development should start construction next summer. Prices for the smallest condo is projected to start at $265,000 and go up from there. It sounds like the retail space will host a cafe, coffee shop, salon and barbershop. There will also be 15 custom home lots for sale. These will probably fetch a premium for each lot and from what I’ve seen on the planning map, these are going to be larger lots. We are one step closer to seeing this great set of homes added to East Sac and I’m excited for my clients that have been waiting to buy in...
