A wonderful neighbor is more precious than any cult Cabernet. A bad neighbor is swill.
Every time a house changed hands on my old Napa street, I d hold my breath and hope the new people didn t have a fatal flaw. No auto body business in their garage. No late-night music. No front yard RV storage.Â
That s the thing about neighbors in a tight subdivision setting: Everyone lives in a fish bowl. No behavior goes unscrutinized. Compatibility is a prized commodity.

listing from its website and pausing all showings to
re-evaluate whether this property is the best fit for their
portfolio.
