caroline sells the city: 655 Hope Update & Inventory - 01/23/12 10:51 PM
655 Hope Update & Inventory  
  Hello DTLA Buyers! We all know that DTLA inventory is really low right now, and what happens when supply is low? Demand rises! That's right, 655 Hope units have been flying off the shelves since New Year's and that's WITH a price INCREASE from the developer. Check out the remaining units at 655 Hope and their new pricing -- pricing is firm.
Need something else to sweeten the deal? How about the developer paying for a year's worth of HOAs if you're under contract before Jan. 31st? I'd say that's a pretty good … (1 comments)

caroline sells the city: DTLA Alternative - The Alta Lofts - 01/23/12 10:41 PM
DTLA Alternative - The Alta Lofts  
  I get asked which buildings in Downtown LA are FHA approved all the time. That's not surprising, considering how many first-time buyers and investors there are swarming in Downtown right now, not to mention the low inventory. Here's an option: why not step a little outside Downtown into neighboring Lincoln Heights to the ALTA lofts? They are FHA approved, and with units starting at $199K, are definitely worth checking out. And right now, the developer's offering a special incentive -- 2 years of pre-paid HOAs!
