palos verdes: Using a Drone to Shoot Video of a Home - 06/25/14 02:00 AM
I am lucky to have a friend who likes toy helicopters and has been working/playing with them for years. The technology is soo good now, that a high performance toy can carry a camera and with remote control you can get some great footage.
I have a new listing at 15 Via Del Cielo and I wanted to capture the amazing ocean views from this blufffront property.  I called my buddy and we teamed up to shoot this video. He drove the octo-helicopter, and I controlled the camera wearing goggles and using a hand held remote. It was fun, and I … (2 comments)

palos verdes: Thanksgiving is over, and the market is Slowing Down for Holidays - 11/27/12 12:24 PM
There were only 13 new listings in the South Bay yesterday and very few new listings on today's Broker Open. I still have plenty of clients that are ready to buy a house, I just need some good inventory to come up.
Here is video of a few of the new homes on the market. The most interesting listing is the last one in my video on Paseo Del Mar. This home was purchased just two weeks ago privately, the home never went on the market. When the new owner received an offer over what he paid, he realized that the … (2 comments)

palos verdes: Using Video for Virtual Tour - 10/31/12 10:07 AM
My name is Jason Buck and I work in Palos Verdes. I have been a big fan of video for sometime and have a live feed from my home on 24/7.  Check out www.PalosVerdesWebcam.com
I also use video to show my clients a virtual tour walk through of the home so they can see first hand what the layout is like. Its sometimes a bit shakey, or out of focus, and it can always be improved, however, the task at hand is not easy and the effort shows pure committment to the job, and my clients notice.

palos verdes: Video is no Joke.. - 01/20/12 05:55 AM
I closed the biggest deal of my carreer last month by shooting video of a home and sending it to my client in China. 

 
I received an email from a client looking for a large safe home in a good school district. I sent him 17 listings around the $3.4 million markin Palos Verdes.  My client liked a home in Oceanfront, however it sold. We looked at a larger home down the street which was more expensive yet had more features the client desired. He bought the home after watching the video I made for him.  I personalized the … (69 comments)

palos verdes: Whale migration off Palos Verdes - 08/31/10 05:48 AM
I have lived here over 30 years and I have never seen anything like this. The last several days there have been a Blue and Fin whale migration just a few hundred feet off the coast of Palos Verdes. The best vantage point is just south of Pt Vicente, where the whales come very close to the cliff. If you were at Terranea, a luxury hotel, you would be getting quite a show.
I saw a few last Wednesday, with the highlight being over 50 whales passing the cliff on Thursday. There were still quite a few over the weekend, and … (5 comments)

palos verdes: Incredible Sealife with Birds, Whales, Fish, and Crazy Paddlers.. Amazing - 11/19/09 07:57 AM
On November 17, 2009 off the coast of Palos Verdes in the Los Angeles Bay, there were thousands of birds gathering around a huge bait ball. The "Seagasm" was probably four football fields large, and had whales and all sorts of sealife feeding on it. There were several brave paddelboards and kayaks that made the journey a few miles offshore, and got very close to the action. I did see activity all week long, but this was the most magnificent gathering I have seen.

palos verdes: Fin Whales in Palos Verdes - 11/07/09 06:30 PM
 

 
This past week I have seen Fin Whales in the channel to Santa Catalina Island. One evening during sunset a large group was splashing and creating huge boils as they raced towards the cliffs of PV.  My friends and I believe they were chasing squid.
Palos Verdes is famous for hosting Grey Whales from November to April. The Palos Verdes Interpretive Center is a great focal point and the museum is nice too.

palos verdes: Work from home saves time in Commuting - 10/26/09 11:20 AM

Its hard to believe how incredibly gorgeous it is today.  Its 87 degree's plus, clear with a slight breeze, and a wonderful time to work at the Beach. At 200 Pier Ave, one block from the beach in Hermosa, there are 52 office condo units for sale. With the internet capabilities and keeping a conscious effort to become "green", more business people are choosing to work from home. Having an office at 200 Pier Ave keeps you close to home, in the social mix at the hub of the city, and motivated to get your work done so you can … (3 comments)
