Commentary on real estate and homes, area updates, park news, information, and more on the Belwood of Los Gatos, Belgatos, and Surmont neighborhoods by Mary Pope-Handy, a Belwood resident and Realtor.
Over the weekend, the Belwood of Los Gatos community participated in the "Community Yard Sale" that was happening throughout the town of Los Gatos. The cabana was a busy place with folks selling their wares at what seemed like a good clip. Additionally, neighbors held yard sales in their own driveways and front yards too, as was the case all over this part of Silicon Valley.
The pool is open and swimmers are happy as the heat has been bearing down on us. To see about scheduling a party there (if you are a cabana member), see the Belwood Community's website.
The real estate market is busy in Belwood, Belgatos, and Surmont too. There are now seven active listings and two pending sales in these three areas. As with other parts of town, not all homes are selling - only the ones perceived as being "the best value" for the money are getting offers and going to closing. (For more information on the housing market, please click on the Homes Info button above.)
How's the Market in Belwood, Belgatos and Surmont?
Homes in Belwood are selling at the same slow pace as most of the rest of Los Gatos.
Homes that are in top condition and priced well with no "issues" are selling decently. Others are sitting. At the moment (3/19) there is only one home available, two which are sales pending, and two more poised to come on the market in the next month or so.

Farmer's Market - Every Sunday - 8am to 1pm Every Sunday, in every type of weather, you can meander through the
town's Farmer's Market at Town Plaza Park. It's a great place to get
wonderful produce and flowers and meals/snacks too. (The crepes are
fabulous.) Dogs are NOT allowed into the stalls area but may be in the
park, adjacent to the action.
