Anytime other than right around Thanksgiving and Christmas. I've rented out my own rentals as well as for my landlord clients throughout the entire year. Just like when you are looking to sell, price and presentation matter (aka clean, tiddy, decluttered, professional pictures, etc).

Let's just hope they don't choke again in the playoffs. Looks like they'll be playing San Diego in the next round.

Is this for a conforming loan or a jumbo loan?

True but they'll use the similar price per SF to price their single loaded view lot homes. I fully expect prices of 1,500sf+ for those lots.

There are a ton of SFH built after 2020 in several Irvine Villages.

Not necessarily true, in some detached condo tracts you own your own lot while in other you own a % of the entire area. If you see actually square footage for the lot on a detached condo listing then you own the lot. Having a driveway or not has nothing to do either a home is a detached condo...

Most in-state insurers are limiting new policies or just not writing new policies. Best bet is going through a broker. The buyer for my 6 Ceramica listing in RSM got a quote for homeowners insurance for less than $2,500 per year in an area considered a high fire zone.

The other con is that it is much warmer in Yorba Linda than it is in Irvine but there is little to no mello roos out there so the property tax rate is lower.

Got word earlier this afternoon that escrow closed today. The final sales price was $1,877,000 which was $8,000 above the list price and the seller also got a free short rent back. Congrats to both the buyer and seller.

After a few counters with a buyer over the weekend, the deposit came in yesterday and escrow has been opened on Monday.

Got word from escrow that we closed earlier today. The adjusted sales price was $1,175,000 (original contract price was $1,206,000) because the seller reduced the price of the home by $31,000 in lieu of repairs including roof replacement and termite/fumigation costs. Congrats to both the...

The previous listing agreement has a section where to put the total commission for the transaction and then another section where you put in the buyer agent commission so the seller and listing determine how the total commission is split between the listing agent and buyer agent. In the new...

1. The seller pays whatever the commission they agree to with the listing agent on the listing agreement (most are 2% today) so if the seller offers up a 2% seller concession they are paying 4% total commission. 2. The buyer agent does not get a double paid. The buyer agent can get up to the...

After a couple of offers we are in escrow on this home.

So we received a total of 8 offer and sent out best and final counters on Tuesday. The sellers have selected the buyer this evening and we will be opening escrow tomorrow (Friday) with a price well over the list price.

1st Staging did the staging and my photography is done by Real Estate Photo Shoot.

Or in Newport Coast, Corona Del Mar, Newport Beach, or Laguna Beach.

There was a bit of an air pocket back the late summer/early fall 2016 where prices were soft, not sure if it was the elections or not but things did pick up in early 2017.

I'm willing to submit semi low ball offers for my buyers but I do set proper expectation of what may happen (i.e. no response or the offer is rejected without a counter offer). That being said, I'm not out to make friends with the listing agents as my primary goal is to help my buyers when I'm...

Not familiar with Portola Springs? I've been helping clients buy and sell homes in Portola Springs for 15 years. I know all of the tracts and have helped new home buyers purchase in just about every tract built in 2010 and later, including 2 buyers at The Bluffs. In terms of buyer traffic...
