Downtown Los Angeles Views: life of an Urban Dweller! Posted on Mar 8, 2015 by Endre Barath in Downtown Los Angeles |
When we represent buyers in Downtown Los Angeles, the focus is basically on three things. One what are the amenities that they get for  the Home Owner Dues i.e.: is there a roof top pool or an indoor pool or a pool on the grounds?  The second focus is on  the question is there a Gym to work out i.e.: how state of the art is the workout room? Then lastly and most importantly what are the views like? … (10 comments)

Check out the Vibrant Colors of Downtown Los Angeles. Posted on Mar 8, 2015 by Endre Barath in Downtown Los Angeles | 
Downtown Los Angeles has turned into a very Vibrant Downtown. I still remember 17+ years ago when at night it turned into a Ghost town… in some respects it reminded me of  Providence Rhode Island. At night the city would become a ghost town…anyway that was twenty plus years ago.

Now when I drive around Downtown Los Angeles all I see is vibrant colors. These photos are of a building let me know what you think?

There has  been a lot of discussion for the past couple of  years  about the importance of going Mobile Friendly with Real Estate and any other websites. Needless to say, I have researched it and ultimately made the pricey change over. There were some benefits immediately a new website look, but there were quite a few draw backs as well. Clients noticing that my Website does not have all the information like the old one did with all my listings … (81 comments)

The James Beard Nominations have been announced!
I have been crazy busy so I have not have had the opportunity to write about this. On February 19th 2015 the James Beard Foundation’s Semi Finalist Nominees have been announced.
The grumbling has begun shortly after the list came out and the grumbling have continued here in Los Angeles (at least here I am aware of it). They went from the polite to the downright nasty on the World Wide Web. Just to … (7 comments)

endre barath: The Median Sold Price by Month in Century/City Westwood is up 15%! - 02/28/15 03:11 PM
The Median Sold Price by Month in Century City/Westwood is up 15%!
I find this fascinating in January 2014 the Median Sold Price was $675,000. There were many buyers on the fence not wanting to buy. We kept telling them that the only direction we see prices and interest rates going is up.
Well I guess we were half right, since interest rates have been artificially kept low, but prices have increased. The Median Sold Price by Month for January 2015 has been $775,000. That is an increase of $100,000.00 or better said 15%!

Are you a Doctor, a General or a Realtor?
Movies have been portraying Realtors often if not all the time in a bad light. One has to wonder why that is. Do Realtors create the problems? The answer is clear: they try to solve the problems. After all they do not get paid unless there is a sale or the problem solved.
Doctors, Attorneys and all professionals get paid as they provide their services, the more complicated their service is, the more money they make. Realtors are the exception, they can work hard and long hours and if the buyer and … (34 comments)

 The 87th Oscars are in the books.
 
I am not the biggest fan of the Oscars, since they have a habbit of not staying within a reasonable time frame. Having lived on the East Coast often times Diane would be asleep before the Best Picture Announcement came.
Then when we relocated to the Land of The Movies, we started hosting Oscar Parties... Needless to say that phase of our life has ended as well.
Now we have three indoor and one outdoor cats and our indoor dog, Parties, invitiation of friends to visit have subsided.
So Diane and I had … (9 comments)

 Flat Vacant Lot on the corner of Indian Mesa Rd & Kagel  Canyon Road...
Just listed! Would you believe a flat vacant lot? Well this one is flat. It consists of two APN numbers, one of which is on a paved road.
Reasonably priced at $60,000.00 for the both of them. These great lots are past the part of Kagel Canyon where the County does not maintain the road. The good news is we do not have blizzards like the East Coast.

If you are looking for an easy build, all you need to do is ascertain where the water … (14 comments)

Sunday Evening Reflection on Valentine's Day and this message! I found it very inspirational and I will be sad if they get rid of it too soon!
As I was going to the Bank and heading from there to SEE's Candy Store, since it was the afternoon before Valentine's Day, I could not help notice this sign. So I thought I would share with you this picture. Now what a great message. I loved it every one was trying to get in front of it and have their pictures taken. I thought it was very inspirational.

Community Activism: alive and well in Sherman Oaks, CA
I find that no matter where you live there is community activism. As I was driving on Coldwater Canyon Blvd, I passed one of the most exclusive school of the Greater Los Angeles area Harvard-Westlake. Interestingly I could not help but notice all the signs.
This made me think what do potential buyers think when they see signs like this? Will this encourage them to buy into the community? Or will it have a detrimental … (10 comments)
