So here are my top 10 reason for calling me for your real estate questions or needs. If you can think of something I should add let me know.

9. I am a Short Sale Specialist - do you owe more than your home is worth? Call me for help.
10. I am honest, you may not LIKE what I say, but it will always be the truth.

Here's just a bit about me -- so if you want to know me better read on.

I've been married to a High School teacher for 28 years. He teaches at James Logan High School in Union City. He also coaches Freshman Football and is the Varsity Baseball Head Coach. This year, 2008 he was inducted into the California Baseball Hall of Fame. A huge honor.

I have 5 kids- yes an entire handful. The best thing is they are growing up and moving out. I love my kids, and I've waited a long time for them to be old enough for me to follow my heart and pursue my dream of selling Real Estate. I've always wanted to sell Real Estate, but just knew I couldn't when my kids were little.

Quicky on the kids -- Tyler, 23, stationed at Kirtland Air Force Base, graduate United States Air Force Academy. He's an avid golfer and set tons of records playing D1 Golf for the Falcons.

Son #2, Logan, 20 attends college at the University of Hawaii, Hilo. What a great place to go to college, especially if you are a golfer. The courses he's played over the past 2 years. He was the PacWest Freshman Golfer of the Year in 2007, and made All League in the PacWest this year. He has been Team Captain for the Vulcans for the past 2 years.

Riley, 17 will be a Senior at Merrill West High School He is passionate about baseball, and is looking forward to an awesome Senior year and the many opportunities that will present themselves to him.

Shane, 14, a Freshman at Merrill West High School is a history and military nut. He loves Air Soft guns, playing espinage video games. He's played his share of sports, but his passion for history has led him to concentrate on his grades.

Juliana, 11, is the only girl - and we adopted her from St. Petersburg, Russia when she was a baby. She loves life, is an extremely talented artist. Horses, pets of any kind, the phone and friends are what drives her to be incredible.

So you see, I'm not all that busy anymore and my children are what has led me to be so involved in the community. This community will be left to the children of today, and I want Tracy to be the best it can be.

I've watched Tracy, CA grow fast in the past 14 years. Mountain House is a result of that growth. When you are shopping for a REALTOR, someone who lives in the area, knows the area, has raised thier children in the area is a wonderful thing. Why pick a REALTOR that lives in another county?

Tracy, CA has been a wonderful place to raise my family, and I don't for a minute regret moving her fromt the Bay Area.

What do you want to know about Tracy or Mountain House, CA

I specialize in Tracy. Mt.House, Banta and surrounding valley areas. This is a great place to live. We are diverse, have lots of affordable housing for first time buyers. Northern California is a very expensive area to live and many families who relocate to Northern California choose the Tracy area due to it's small town feel and affordable living.

I can find you a home that will fit your needs and dreams. I beleive there is a perfect home for everyone. I love to shop, and finding the perfect home is a grand adventure. We can find a home for you anywhere from Monterey - Roseville. You describe it, I'll find it.

You're moving? I can take the stress out of the experience. My goal is to get the most money, in the least amount of time, with as little inconvience as possible.

Are you in financial trouble and you own a house? Do you need some advise of a possible foreclosure or short sale? Do you need someone who will market your home and get it sold very quickly? Do you just need some free advise? Call me I'll help you if I can, if I can't I'll try to find someone who can.

Short Sales are the buzz word of the late 2000's. Who knew that California and especially the Central Valley of CA would take such a HUGE hit. IF you are one the people affected by this call me. I can at the very least explain your options to you.

Do you have some money to invest, there has never been a better time to invest in real estate. What are you waiting for? I know when the market will hit bottom - and I'll tell you -- it will be when my phone starts ringing off the hook with buyers who want to buy quick. Don't be a buyer in a Seller's Market (when Seller's get to negotiate and houses are selling fast) be SMART be a BUYER in A BUYER'S Market. There are some areas already that the mulitple offers are appearing on homes, homes are selling over asking. Yikes, if you want to buy, you better be thinking about doing it now.

Don't let time pass you buy. Create wealth. I'll help you and I will consider it my honor to do so.

If you have any questions about Tracy or Mountain House feel free to call me. I know the schools, the City Council agenda, how to get from point A - point B the fastest during rush hour. Do you need to know how to sign your children up for Soccer, Little League, Babe Ruth, Youth Football, Swimming, call me. I've got 5 kids - I know this stuff.

Why we loved working with Susan Goulding!

Susan was awesome, she was patient, took the time to listen and answer our questions. She never pushed us to sign a listing contract until we were ready and comfortable with everything. Moving was our choice, and she understood that. She was great. MT, in Tracy

Susan took me to look at neighborhoods for hours. We drove from community to community. Susan knew I wouldn't be moving to the area for 4 - 6 weeks. She explained a lot of what we saw might not be available when I was ready to make an offer. Not once did she make me feel like I was wasting her time. Susan provided me with email updates on the market. She didn't call daily, she didn't nag or perster me. She left me to make a decision on my own. 6 weeks later, I called Susan, said I was ready. Again we went out, this time we limited our shopping to the community of Tracy. 20 houses later, she asked, " Did we see your perfect home? Is so we need to make an offer." We made an offer, it was accepted as written, and 3 weeks later I moved in. I'd recommend Susan to anyone who asked. SN in Tracy

Believe it or not, I called Susan after my home had been listed with another agent for 120 days. I was one month from foreclosure proceedings. I live out of state and chose Susan based solely on her web site. She verified I was no longer in contract, faxed me a listing contract and I was on the market. My home sold in 28 days. Susan was honest wth me about the price (I needed to drop my price). We sold for $4000 less than listing price, and the bank didn't foreclose on my property. FD in Illinois.

I am a first time buyer. I can not believe the amount of information Susan was able to give me when it came time to purchase our first home. She held my hand and walked me through every step. She had tears in her eyes when she handed me the key to my first home. She told me it was her greatesst pleasure to help first time buyers like me accomplish the American Dream. JT in Tracy, CA

We wanted a brand new home. Susan took us to all the new homes in Mountain House, she walked through every single model with us. Susan helped negotiate for a loan that put is the home of our dreams. I called Susan she met us one night and we discussed every single piece of paperwork that we had to sign. Susan helped us no over spend, and she advised us wisely. I feel like Susan was the "big sister" I never had. AA in Mountain House
