realtorcom: Time To Show Off in Costa Mesa CA! - 06/10/10 01:05 PM

If you've followed advice given here about sprucing up your home's exterior, well done!  Now let's focus attention on the next thing potential buyers will see - the front door and the interior.  Now is the time for spring-cleaning and to show off your home's best features.
Repaint that front door and touch up around the entry.  Make it warm and welcoming with updated light fixtures at the entrance and foyer. Speaking of entries, check your windows and doors for energy efficiency.  If they're not airtight, an investment in new windows and insulation will pay off handsomely and impress buyers.

realtorcom: The Pressure Cooker on Orange County California Real Estate! - 02/05/10 01:14 PM
 

Phew!  After four years of declining home sales, the numbers appear to be finally turning back upward, with closed sales and pending contracts at above-normal increases.  In particular, first-time buyers helped buoy the market by taking advantage of low prices and interest rates, as well as the $8,000 tax credit offered by the federal government.
At least for now, home prices remain attractively low, and mortgage payments as they relate to income are very comfortable.  All the information seems to point to the fact that home prices have actually overcorrected downward.  What does that mean?  It indicates that many … (0 comments)

realtorcom: Investment Training Camp - 01/16/10 09:20 AM

If you can hear the whispers below the din of panic, you know that the recent financial and housing collapses have actually created some amazing opportunities for smart investors.  Low interest rates and depressed property values have combined in an environment favorable for long-term gains.
It may not be for everyone, but if you're in the right financial position, you have plenty of options.  However, there is a right way and a wrong way to invest, and it's the wrong way that led so many to suffer in the recent housing crisis.
Don't think about investing in real estate until … (1 comments)
