echo park los angeles: Maria/Mario the Goose/Gander Update - 03/05/11 03:43 PM
In a follow up to my previous story about Maria the Echo Park Goose who was to be relocated, with all the other geese and ganders at the lake, it turns out that Maria is in fact Mario!
The now famous gander was moved to the L.A. Zoo for her own protection. You know, the price of fame. It was there that the mistake was discovered. In any event, Mario will be quarantined at the Zoo for a month and then put on display.
Dominic, his longtime friend at Echo Park Lake, was him this week and reported that Mario … (21 comments)

echo park los angeles: With a Developer's Contract Get Legal Advice - 11/07/09 12:03 AM
I discussed the contract my first-time buyer is faced with while considering the purchase of a condo in a brand-new 5-unit development in Echo Park. The contract looked daunting on the surface, but I thought, reading through and using my knowledge of the real estate transaction would go much of the way towards ensuring that my buyer would be protected. Wrong!There is no way any of us who are not attorneys should be attempting to decipher a developer's own contract. There is way too much to look out for, at least in California.I mentioned a few points points in my previous … (18 comments)

echo park los angeles: Our Plain Vanilla Real Estate Contracts Are a Breeze - Enter the Monster! - 11/05/09 11:14 AM
I have a first-time, out-of-town buyer finally making an offer on a condo in a new development in Echo Park. He has been looking for about a year and a half which has been difficult since he is not local. He is a very nervous buyer anyway and having to deal with a 40-page contract is somewhat overwhelming.We know our own contracts, and can probably fill them out with our eyes closed. But, an outside contract such as the one I received bears careful reading. As realtors we have a fiduciary duty to our clients and need to protect them. I … (16 comments)

echo park los angeles: Echo Park, Los Angeles - An Up and Coming Place to Live - 11/03/09 10:47 AM
I just showed a property in Echo Park to a client of mine. It is a new, loft-style condo development on a busy street, but it has tremendous views. (You can see the Hollywood sign top left and Griffith Park Observatory just below and to the right)
