My name is Margaret Barton and I’ve lived in Silicon Valley since 1978 and have been a full time real-estate agent since 1993. While I specialize mostly in helping my clients purchase and sell homes, there are so many people who have contacted me over the years asking for rental information that I’ve compiled my “cheat sheet.” This is primarily for my own use but others have found it helpful too, so I’m sharing it with you.

 

Many moving to Silicon Valley also ask for information about the different cities on the Peninsula, here I’ve summarized some information about each city, this is by no means an exhaustive list but it will give you some idea of the areas whether you’re thinking to rent or purchase.
