I am occasionally asked if I know of a rental coming available in the local communities (Half Moon Bay, El Granada, Moss Beach, Montara, Pacifica) - or - I hear of a rental about to become available. I will post that information on this page. Contact me if you want further details…
Currently most people use craigslist.org or the Half Moon Bay Review classifieds. A vacation rental site is vrbo.com. Another source is local Realtors who hear about comings and goings all the time. This page is simply meant to be an additional local resource for you. There is no compensation involved - just matching the “haves” and the “wants”. I can provide property management referrals if needed.
