Before you make an offer
Many Bay Area homes were built before 1970, so ask whether the under-slab cast-iron sewer drain lines have been scoped with a camera and check whether older electrical panels or wiring have been updated. Ask about foundation history in the local clay soil, and request windstorm certificates on roofs, windows and additions. On Ocean Drive bayfront properties or condominiums, have shoreline retaining structures inspected and review HOA reserve funds, windstorm deductibles and rental rules.
Windstorm insurance and flood zones vary by property; Marci can point you to the right specialist. This isn't insurance or legal advice.

Good to know
Ocean Drive carries a dedicated pedestrian and bike path along the bayfront connecting neighborhood parks like Ropes Park and Cole Park straight into the downtown seawall and marina.
