Day in the life of a Beverly Hills Realtor: 14809 Leadwell St, Van Nuys is in Escrow NOW!!
As most of you know, the market is on fire in the greater Los Angeles area. I have written numerous posts about the shortage of inventory. Just as well I have mentioned, that there are more buyers than properties. Despite all the negative messages you hear in the media, there are a few Patriotic Veteran Friendly Realtors as well as sellers in the greater Los Angeles area and vicinity who try to give back to these well deserving veterans.
Just to give you a little background: I have been working with this Disabled Veteran for over three months trying to find him a home. Every offer we submitted we were passed over, because as you know VA Loans are more stringent in looking at the condition of the home. Then to boot the appraisals are tighter since a VA Loan is a “no money down” loan and lenders do not want to risk their money.
We missed out on, I do not even want to tell you on how many properties, either due to “multiple offer” outbidding or just because the condition of the home would not pass a VA Appraisal Inspection.
Well long and behold, I get an email blast from one of our Berkshire Hathaway agents that he has a property that is not in the Multiple Listing Service (The MLS) and if anyone is interested we should reach out. I was on it immediately, it was a tenant occupied home. We have worked things out and after numerous hurdles removed, we are in Escrow.
What a great opportunity for a Soldier who got injured protecting our comfortable lives. Thank you to the sellers and their listing agent, who could have been on both sides of the transaction or he could have been in a multiple offer situation and we would have missed out. On a side note, the listing agent has a son who is in the Marine Corps and has a heart. He convinced his sellers to go with our offer.
It is refreshing to see that it is not always about greed, it is about human kindness.
We are looking forward to our physical inspection and then the appraisal and ultimately to our closing.
