Send us a text
In today's episode of The Sunset Connection, host Jessica Ho introduces two exciting new segments: The Realty Rundown and Community Announcements!
We start by exploring the latest real estate trends impacting San Francisco's Sunset District, highlighting key market insights, financial opportunities, and the city's beneficial DALP program for first-time homebuyers.
Our special guest is Margaret Graf, a dedicated advocate for seniors, retired nurse and attorney, and accomplished author. Margaret shares rich stories from over six decades in the Sunset District, reflecting on San Francisco's transformation, her work with seniors through her nonprofit Senior Power, and her impactful roles with the Advisory Council on Aging and Disability Services (DAS). She also discusses her delightful children's book, "The Adventures of Rob Raven: Climate Change by Wing and Tail," and previews her upcoming book, "Senior Sharp," celebrating the art and joy of aging.
