Today we want to talk about one of the best cities in the bay area. Walnut Creek is a place that everybody loves, and a place that I personally live in. It is one of those areas that has been redeveloped, redesigned, and home values are going through the roof. A lot of people come to this city for the great food, great shopping, and beautiful weather.
Walnut Creek values are very intriguing once you start tracking them. There are 4 different zip codes in Walnut Creek, I'll go through each of them to tell you a little bit about the different areas and the advantages that each of them offer.
Let's start off in the 94956 zip code, Ygnacio Valley. This area has the best appreciation of any area in Walnut Creek.
In the 94595 zip code, Saranap, you will find an older population, mostly due to the presence of the Rossmoor Retirement Community. There are a lot of cozy, ranch homes in this area and home prices have been jumping quickly. There are a lot of good schools in this area as well.
The 94957 is an area where I used to live. It's famous for both its schools and great family neighborhoods.

Finally, we have the 94958 zip code, also called Northgate due to its proximity to the Northern entrance of Mount Diablo. This is a unique area, with a lot of different styles of homes and beautiful views. The only problem people have with this area is the commute, as it is significantly longer than if you were living inside the city.
No matter where you buy in Walnut Creek, it's going to be a fabulous investment. There is so much good information about this area, I can't say enough. I'd love to talk to you more about this area if you get a chance. Just give me a call or send me a quick email and I will get right back to you!
