I love this solution!! We live on a busy street and didn’t want the view of cars and pedestrians nor did we want to feel like fish in a fish bowl when the drapes were open. This window is also huge at 12 feet across and drapes faded quickly due to southern exposure.
Problem solved with the installation of a window film. It is available in a few patterns including our first choice of a rice paper type of pattern. This product is great!! It lets in lots of light while providing privacy. It also allows the window to be unobstructed with curtains and curtain rods making the room seem more expansive.
In the evening there is a really cool kaleidoscope effect with the backdrop of car lights reflecting off the window, making the bamboo cast a moving shadow across the window.
This product is also quite reasonably priced & comparable to buying a nice set of drapes but without the maintenance! Our installer, Steve Clark with Window Innovations was great and also able to accommodate our request of making a small cut out in the lower left portion of the window so that our kitties wouldn’t miss out on watching foot traffic and birds landing on our bamboo.

Having grown-up in San Bruno, I’m admittedly a little biased as to the fantastic things offered by living here. But, there are a few things I think other people should know when looking for an area in The Peninsula to live.
It’s true what they say, it’s all about “LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!” San Bruno is minutes to San Francisco, so commuting is not a big hassle. It’s close to the ocean so you can enjoy time on the beach and driving along the coast. And, it’s minutes to San Francisco Internation Airport so it’s easy for friends to visit or for you to jet-off to anywhere in the world!
San Bruno also has a very diverse population and offers affordable housing including condos, townhomes, and single family homes. The weather in the area is fantastic, the schools are stellar, and there are outstanding park and recreation areas around to enjoy the natural beauty that surrounds you. We also have great Senior Services in the area!
No matter what you’re looking for specifically, I’m sure there’s some part of San Bruno that can meet your needs. I was raised here, love the area, and love introducing new people to what my city has to offer!

According to the the National Association of Realtors®, “distressed homes” represented nearly 2 of every fifth home sold in January 2010. Clearly, real estate investors are taking advantage of good deals on cheap property. But there’s risk involved.
This NBC Today Show interview first ran in March 2009, featuring real estate expert Barbara Corcoran. Despite its age, the message remains relevant. Today may be a terrific time to buy a bank-owned home — just make sure you do your research first. There’s plenty of ways for investors to get burned.
Corcoran also gives pointers on how to evaluate a prospective tenant.
Foreclosures should represent a large number of 2010′s total home sales and will offer interesting opportunities to bona fide real estate investors. Before you jump in, make sure to watch the video. The rents you save may be your own.
Remember, the stats and the data are from 12 months ago, but the advice stays meaningful.
