Why buyers look at Martinez
Martinez is the seat of Contra Costa County and sits on the Carquinez Strait, with a historic downtown, a waterfront marina and an Amtrak station. It is a commuter town for people priced out of the central Bay Area, with a mix of older bungalows and post-war suburban homes. The city also hosts oil-refining industry on its shoreline, so ask about surroundings if you are viewing near the water.
Surrounding markets include Pleasant Hill, Walnut Creek, Lafayette and Pittsburg. Berkeley and Richmond are across the East Bay and cost considerably more or less depending on the neighbourhood.
Steps for a non-US buyer
Foreigners may buy freely in California. Escrow and title insurance handle the closing, and a home inspection is standard. Property tax is around 1% of the purchase price plus local assessments, and reassessment on sale means you should not assume the seller's tax bill will carry over. Earthquake and flood insurance are separate decisions in this region.

Buying property in Martinez: FAQ
Is Martinez cheaper than Walnut Creek?
Compare the Walnut Creek page. Martinez is generally the more affordable of the two, but check price per m² rather than headline price. Walnut Creek is better connected and more upmarket, which tends to lift prices there.
Do I need an agent?
Not legally, but a buyer's agent is typical in California and is usually paid from the transaction, with commissions negotiated under recent industry rules. Agents in California typically earn commission negotiated between the parties.
Are there many condos?
Only 5 of 79 listings are apartments, so most buyers target single-family homes. Condos are scarce here, so buyers expecting apartments should look in neighbouring cities.
What taxes apply when I sell?
FIRPTA withholding may apply for foreign sellers (15% by default, lower in some residence cases), plus California taxes on gains. Take tax advice before purchase. A cross-border tax adviser can map out the exposure before you buy.
