Flash Sales in the Bay Area!

Flash Sales (Homes going into escrow within 24 hours of being put on the market – sometimes within 3 hours) are happening all over the bay area in all types of bay area neighborhoods.

Check out this NBC Bay Area newsclip to learn more.  We have seen this trend with our recent listings in South San Francisco and Fremont.  If you are a buyer, contact Ton Dang 650-219-2926 – who has unique access to homes before they are even listed.  If you are thinking about selling, give Ton a call!  Ton will make sure you get the maximum price and maximum exposure online in this hot market!

TD Real Estate becomes an executive producer for the short film “Dead No More”

Author and Huffington Columnist Gini Graham Scott

If you remember in our earlier post, we announced that Ton Dang and TD Real Estate were featured in Gini Graham Scott’s book “Living in Limbo.”

Now we are partnering again with this nationally known author as one of the executive producers for the short film Dead No More, about a woman brought back from cryonics suspension.  It ends with her cryptic remarks which point to the mysteries that lie ahead in the full feature.

The short film, written and produced by Huffington Post Columnist and author Gini Graham Scott of Changemakers Productions, will be entered in film festivals and a sizzle reel based on it will be used to pitch the full feature to producers and investors. The Dead No More shoot turned into a real Hollywood By the Bay production that was filmed at the SOMArts Cultural Center with a cast and crew of 30 members, and the filming included a dolly, crane, and even a machine using dry ice to make smoke.

The short film is expected to premier at the Castro Theatre in San Francisco the first Saturday in March. We at TD Real Estate are proud to have helped make this short film possible!
