Life on the Peninsula

San Carlos has a walkable downtown on Laurel Street, a Caltrain station and tech and biotech employers nearby. Neighbours are Belmont, Redwood City and San Mateo. Menlo Park, Palo Alto and Los Altos lie further south, at the heart of Silicon Valley, and can be pricier.

Overseas buyer notes

There is no federal ban on foreign purchases, but lenders ask more of non-resident borrowers and many buyers pay cash. California property tax is around 1% of the purchase price. Offers in the Bay Area can be competitive, so line up proof of funds and agent support before touring. Ask for the pest inspection, seismic and natural-hazard disclosures; earthquake insurance is optional but worth quoting.

See our US buying guide, financing overview and the US overview.

Competition and offer tactics

The Peninsula market is competitive and well-priced homes often attract several offers. Overseas buyers who want to be taken seriously should have a verified proof of funds or a lender's pre-approval, and a local agent who can arrange viewings quickly. Contingencies for inspection and appraisal are negotiable, and waiving them raises risk. Housing is mostly older stock from the 1940s to 1960s, so inspect plumbing, electrics and foundations, and ask about retrofit work.
