Let Lana Ralston, a realtor with years of experience in and around Palo Alto, make your precious dream of owning your home become real - in every sense of the word

Under the ancient English Common law, land was originally considered the property of the reigning monarch. Over the centuries this changed to private ownership of land, which included certain rights, privileges, and obligations. We still use the term “real,” however, a relic of the ancient origins of land ownership.

The terms “real property,” “real estate,” and “realtor,” probably derive from the Latin word meaning “royal.” El Camino Real, which runs the whole length of the San Francisco peninsula and was established to connect the Spanish-established missions, is a Spanish term meaning “the royal road.”
