Just Sold

Fun fact Wednesday- "Who you choose to work with matters"! We were under contract on this listing and the buyer's lender said it was impossible to close on the home and this would also put the buyers in jeopardy of losing their earnest money. cI called my preferred lender who I have worked with forever, who is solution focused and he encouraged me have the buyers (who were not my clients) call him. In the end, he was able to get US to the finish line and it only took 7 days to close!!! If you want to talk about market conditions and working with the best of the best, give me a call 714-655-0595. I would love to share all of my favorite people over coffee, including- contractors & lender info.

Warmly,

In today's wild market, there are plenty of bad ideas on both sides of the buyer/seller equation. Here's how to correct those misconceptions so that everyone can get what they want.

The current market has buyers and sellers on pause. Interest rates have certainly put a damper on many would-be buyers and sellers’ plans. Depending on their budget, where they want to go or what kind of property they are looking for, inventory may be a concern, as well as insurance. 

Everyone seems to be in a state of flux. Many would-be buyers who are renting are continuing to do so, even though the landlord raised their rent, and while not ideal, they don’t know what else to do.

Sellers, despite being able to cash out and make some good equity, cannot make the…

Here is the link to my original 2023 PREDICTIONS

In early January we made our top 10 real estate predictions for 2023. So now, with the year a little more than half over, we are going to review and revise that same forecast and see where we actually are.

Original prediction: Sales prices will fall in 2023.

The most significant forecast was that sales prices would fall in 2023 without any sort of systemic decline in values. So far, prices are down by about 12% year over year; however, prices rose by 3.6% from March to April.

Taking into account interest rates remaining in the high 6% range currently we are standing by our original prediction that the median sales price for 2023 will be lower than that of 2022 however we do not anticipate…
