Coastal Real Estate and Lifestyles

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…

Most landlords & tenants use craigslist.org or the Half Moon Bay Review classifieds to seek a match.  A vacation rental site is vrbo.com.  Another source is local Realtors who hear about comings and goings from time to time, like this site.  This page is simply meant to be an additional local resource for you.  There is no compensation involved - just connecting the “haves” and the “wants”.  I can provide property management referrals if needed.
