Need a homeowner to talk to in Saratoga, CA

Asked by Sue Mcallister, San Jose, CA Fri Aug 3, 2007

Hi, I'm hoping to talk to a Saratoga (CA) homeowner about why he/she chose to buy a home in that town, and what he/she likes about living there, why he/she thinks housing values have remained strong there, etc. Full disclosure: I'm a reporter at the Mercury News, working on an article about the city's real estate market. And because I've been hearing from Trulia execs that people who post questions here get answers in an average of 20 minutes, I thought I'd put their claim to the test. :) But I really DO need to talk to a Saratoga homeowner, so if you are one or know one who'd be willing to chat before 8/7/07, please do call me at (408) 920-5833 or email me at smcallister@mercurynews.com. Thank you!

Hello Sue,
We've lives in Saratoga for the past 10 years. Before that I was living in San Jose. Here are the reasons why we chose Saratoga:
1. Great Schools. After our son was born we wanted to live in an area with good schools.
2. Location: Saratoga is centrally located in the Silicon valley and its close to everywhere.
3. Country living: Saratoga offers a serene, quiet, peaceful community.
4. Saratoga is a safe place to live and raise your family.
5. Saratoga enjoys a mild climate both in summer and winter.
6. Stable community. Once someone moves to Saratoga, after a while they'll realize there are no better place to go to.

All the above are the reasons why the Saratoga housing market is strong and will continue to remain strong.
