Beginning October 5, 2023, the City of Dublin has new rules for Open House signs:

  • Number of Signs: A maximum of six (6) open house signs may be displayed for each property advertised for sale.  The old rules only allowed four (4) signs.
  • Placement: Signs may not be placed in the Public Right-of-Way where they endanger the safety of persons or property, disrupt the normal flow of vehicle or pedestrian traffic, block views of traffic, block ingress into or egress from residences or places of business, or restrict sidewalk width to less than thirty-six (36) inches.
  • Display times: Signs may be displayed on holidays, Saturdays, Sundays, and one agent tour day each week from 10am to 5:30 pm.  The old rules allowed signs to be displayed until “sunset.”.
  • Violations and Enforcement: Violators may be fined, their signs removed, and repeat violators may not be able to display signs in Dublin at all. 

For more information, contact David Stark.

The potential federal government shutdown may impact real estate transactions. Learn more about what the shutdown means for REALTORS® here.

C.A.R. has issued a second Red Alert to stop ACA 13 (Ward), a proposed state constitutional amendment that could undermine Proposition 13 by making it easier for local governments to increase property taxes. ACA 13 just passed the Assembly and could be considered by the entire Senate very quickly.

  • ACA 13 will undermine the voice and power of California’s voters. The legislature shouldn’t be attempting to change the rules just to avoid an outcome with which it might disagree.
  • ACA 13 will make it harder for first-time buyers and others to purchase a home by Increasing property taxes. 
  • ACA 13 could make buying and owning a home even more expensive by eroding Proposition 13 protections. 

Look for C.A.R.’s Red Alert email from realtorparty@car.org with a subject line that contains “RED ALERT.” 
For more information about ACA 13, visit the C.A.R. website (login required).
