Giving thanks for our clients

With the short holiday work week, today is like Thursday, so we’re giving early thanks to the most important people in our world: our clients. Thank you for sharing your real estate journeys with us!

Did you know the first Thanksgiving lasted for three days? Imagine three straight days of Thanksgiving dinners, leftovers, and heartburn! Now imagine what it would be like to have no Thanksgiving dinner at all. Together, we can help all of our friends and neighbors have a happier holiday season by making a donation to a local food bank or volunteering in a community kitchen.

Did you know that Thanksgiving is commonly considered the origin of the “TV Dinner”? According to legend, the Swanson company had a bunch of frozen turkeys leftover from Turkey Day in 1953, so they packaged them up with veggies and sold them as individual meals. Of course, that’s not what really happened, according to the Smithsonian. But the truth isn’t as fun.

Festival of Lights

We're thrilled to invite you to the Compass Los Altos Festival of Lights Pre-Parade Reception, a joyous celebration for the whole family! Enjoy a coffee cart stocked with piping hot cider, rich cocoa, and an array of delectable sweet treats. Complimentary parking is available before and during the parade.

We can't wait to share the joy of the season with you and your loved ones. See you there?

WHEN: Sunday, November 26, 4:00-6:00pm

WHERE: Compass Los Altos, 167 S. San Antonio Road, Suite 1

Shoreline at 40

Did you know Shoreline Regional Park was created out of an auto wrecking yard, a landfill, and a hog farm? We’re all learning more about this local gem for its 40th Anniversary!

CHIC (Pearl)

Whether you feel like playing a round of golf, taking a chill bike ride along the bay, embarking on a quick sailing excursion, or exploring the habitats of native species like owls and butterflies, there’s plenty to do at Shoreline. And with the amphitheatre right next door, a picnic and a show makes for a perfect evening. Maybe we’ll see you on the lawn!

GEEK (Kevin)

As usual, I’m looking ahead to the future, when Shoreline will add neighborhoods with almost 10,000 housing units and all the amenities of a full-fledged city — without sacrificing the natural beauty and open space we’ve all come to enjoy. If you want to learn more, you can join us at the 40th Anniversary Celebration on Sunday, October 15th. See the flyer below for more info!

Catch a buzz!

In honor of National Coffee Day today and International Coffee Day on Sunday, we’ll send you a bag of the Geek’s home-engineered coffee beans when you refer your friends or family to us. Just another way we treat clients like family!

And if you’re one of the two thirds of Americans who drink coffee daily, you’ll probably be hunting for a free cup of java in honor of National Coffee Day. USA Today has the lowdown on where to go, and which countries drink the most coffee around the world.
