Who are the people in your neighborhood?

When I purchased my home I didn't give much thought as to who my neighbors were going to be because I grew up here in Glendale.  As it turned out I moved right next door to one of my high school teachers.  Across the street was a family that I went to school with and next door to them,  a Glendale Police officer, what more could I ask for! 

Until recently, I have never had a client that knocked on doors so they can meet the neighbors before they make the final decision to write an offer on a home.  At first I was a bit taken back by it but then I put myself in their shoes and realized that I wouldn't want to purchase a home unless I knew a little about the neighborhood.  In fact I am currently in escrow myself on a purchase of a small condo in Glendale.  The decision to purchase the unit was based on the fact that I have a couple of clients that live in the building, I know how well it is managed and maintained and of course I also know the neighborhood very well.

Needless to say it is important to know the people in your neighborhood!
