Walnut Creek Real Estate

Looking to relocate to a Californian suburb with a low crime rate, beautiful luxury homes and the convenience of being located just minutes from Oakland and San Francisco? Look no further than Walnut Creek. This city of just over 65,000 people is staying relatively stable in population, but new luxury homes are being constructed in this northern suburb all the time, and there are countless options.

Walnut Creek real estate is not only open to those looking to purchase a home. Many vacation homes are available for those who wish to spend only part of their year in the Bay Area. Walnut Creek homes are also available in many gated communities. The best way to explore all your options in this area's real estate is through a certified real estate agent.

Your Walnut Creek Agent

Finding the home you are looking for is not a simple process, but the help of an agent can make it much easier and less stressful than if you tried to take it all on yourself. Your agent will have access to hundreds of Walnut Creek real estate listings, increasing your chances of finding the home you are looking for. After perusing your options, you and your realtor can narrow down the choices to those that will best meet your needs. Your realtor will also act as a liaison between you and the selling parties in negotiating prices, closing the deal and taking care of any paperwork that goes along with the sale of a home. A real estate agent's help can prove invaluable, especially if you are buying a home for the first time, or if you have been out of the real estate market for a while and need to be updated on the current trends and policies.

The Luxury of Walnut Creek

Walnut Creek is an upscale suburb, with the median value of a home in the city being nearly $400,000. Many homes value much higher, depending on the age, size and design of the home, as well as the location. Many homes that are right on the bay are valued particularly high. The luxury homes in this city are unique in many ways, from the exterior design of the home to the enormous size, and the number of amenities to the floor plans. There are many contractors in the area who will work with you to create your own custom home on a lot you purchase. No matter what type of home you are looking for, you are sure to find it among Walnut Creek real estate.

About Walnut Creek

Unlike many similar cities, Walnut Creek's population is relatively diverse in terms of age, meaning there are attractions for all age groups in the city. Walnut Creek is home to several colleges and other higher educational institutions, and the city is just minutes from the Berkeley campus of the University of California and California State University's Hayworth campus. Being so close to the Bay Area cities, Walnut Creek offers its residents the convenience of all the cultural attractions of San Francisco and Oakland, as well as the recreation opportunities of the bay itself. Your realtor will be able to give you more detailed information on employment, education and demographics in the area.
