    'Tis the season for gift giving fa la la la la la la la la.

    It’s that time of year again and whether you’re looking for gifts for your loved ones or to #treatyoself here is our list of all the best home tech, appliances, and decor gifts that you should add to your list.

    The Tech Gifts

    Amazon Echo

    “Hey Alexa, can you add this to my holiday list?” This hands-free speaker called “Alexa” allows you to play music, make calls, check the weather, and ask questions all through your voice.

    This is only $49.99 and you can purchase it here.

    Amazon Fire TV Stick

    Hey Alexa, can you play “Home Alone” on Hulu? Alexa can also play Hulu, Netflix, HBO Go, and more with this voice-controlled remote.

    This is only $40 and can be purchased here.

    Philips Wake-Up Light

    Do you know someone in your life (maybe yourself) who snoozes their alarm one too many times? This wake-up light simulates a sunrise to wake you up in a refreshing way.

    This is available to purchase here for about $100.

    Furbo Dog Camera 

    Does seeing your dog’s sad puppy eyes every morning when you leave for work make you sad? This camera offers a live stream video that you can watch all day and also lets you toss treats to your furry friends.

    This can be purchased here.

    Amazon Smart Plug

    Tired of Alexa yet? You can use your voice to also turn on and off lights, fans, and appliances. You can even control them when you aren’t home.

    iRobot Roomba i7+

    Having company over for the holidays but finding no time to clean? The iRobot Roomba is a robot vacuum that cleans itself. This one even empties its own dustbin by itself so you really don’t have to clean at all.

    Since 2008, I have been helping clients reach their goals, and doing so in the most professional fashion possible. I graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California at San Diego in 2008. After working in the field for a short time, I found my true calling in Real Estate. My ability to talk with people and problem solve made real estate a perfect fit for me. I obtained my Real Estate License in 2008 and have worked in the industry ever since. My previous experience includes Property Management and helping clients Buy or Sell their home. In 2012 I received my Real Estate Brokers license and have recently joined the team at CENTURY 21 Affiliated. When I'm not out selling homes, I love spending time with my wife and 4 french bulldogs. I also play in an adult baseball league, which helps fulfill my competitive nature. Having played baseball in high school, it is a great extension to my glory days. Thankfully San Diego has such great weather, we can play year round. My expertise in the San Diego market and the outstanding resources of CENTURY 21 Affiliated give my clients the satisfaction that I can provide them the best quality service out there. A Real Estate transaction can be a stressful time, but it doesn't have to be. We do everything we can to make it as smooth as possible, while delivering our clients the best value and helping to build their personal wealth.
