tustin real estate: Real Estate Investing in Tustin Now Easier than Ever - 05/15/17 12:49 PM
Has technology made investing in Tustin real estate easier? Entrepreneur Magazine has
supplied an answer to warm the heart of any Tustin REALTOR® (like yours truly). They say investing
in real estate isn’t just easier—it’s grown significantly easier. The reason is the medium we’re
communicating through right now.
“7 Reasons NOW Is a Great Time to Invest in Real Estate” was the title of the essay. The
screaming “NOW” was the initial attention-getter, although the single one of the 7 Reasons that
had me nodding my head didn’t deal with interest rates or bankers’ current awakening from their
previous lending lethargy. It wasn’t any of the points dealing … (0 comments)

tustin real estate: Tustin Home Loan Rates React to Fed Announcement - 05/15/17 12:25 PM
Last week, local home loan observers were hardly surprised by the news that the Fed’s key
borrowing rate—the one that’s most important where Tustin home loan interest rates are concerned
—was left as-is. At least for the moment.
What that indicated to most educated guessers was that the previous three months’ worth of
relatively weak economic news was probably behind the decision not to raise rates. The economic
news may not have been all that weak, but it was shaky enough to provide more good news when
it comes to Tustin home loans—still remarkably (and happily) hugging the bottom of the 4%
range.
The reason it’s fair to call … (1 comments)

tustin real estate: Rating Tustin Houses for Sale with the SLAM List - 05/15/17 12:17 PM
It’s called SLAM: an abbreviated approach that helps Tustin house hunters to quickly sort
through listed houses for sale. Tustin homes that compare well using the SLAM categories warrant
further investigation.
The four parts of the SLAM list:
Schools. The eventual resale value of a candidate property isn’t usually given much
consideration early on—but should be. A major issue when it comes to resale is the
neighborhood’s school district rating. Schools head the SLAM list because—especially for those
who don’t have school-aged children—the quality of a property’s school district is easy to
overlook. It can also be an indicator of other community quality issues.
Location. It’s the key element that … (0 comments)

tustin real estate: April Can Be a Timely Entry Point for Tustin Listings - 04/03/17 09:16 AM
It’s April—a time of year when area homeowners who haven’t yet added their homes to the
Tustin listings may have a legitimate question about whether it’s too late to benefit from the spring
selling season. This year, they may also be concerned that the rise in mortgage interest rates could
discourage prospective buyers.
The answer to the first question is a qualified not—not too late! The only qualification has
to do with the condition of the property itself. If it can be put into sound showable condition within
a month or so, this is an excellent time to jump into the Tustin listings—for a number of reasons.

tustin real estate: Tustin Mortgage Rates Yo-yo Again - 03/08/17 06:18 AM
 Keeping an eye on Tustin mortgage rates is a useful pastime for anyone who tracks local home sales because of the immediate effect they have on affordability. It can’t get much more immediate than the “projected monthly payment” numbers that calculators come up with alongside an online listing. Those instant calculations include tax and insurance estimates, but those change rarely. The mortgage rates, are always on the move.
Last Thursday, the Washington Post’s headline ran above a photo of Freddie Mac’s massive DC headquarters:
“Mortgage rates fall amid fears of rising inflation.”
That kind of news is always good for Tustin home buyers and … (0 comments)

tustin real estate: Listings in Tustin Present a Fair (but Annoying) Challenge - 02/27/17 06:10 AM
Today’s Tustin listings represent a gigantic leap forward in terms of market efficiency. It’s
hard to imagine a speedier and more convenient way for prospective home buyers to examine the
array of Tustin properties currently being offered. For the sellers, too, the Tustin listings provide a
matchless system for examining the neighborhood competition. In a matter of minutes,
homeowners can make certain that their offering is positioned in line with what the current market
supports.
The Tustin listings are also extremely fair in how local homes for sale are presented. On
most sites, properties are given the same amount of space in blocks that are scrupulously identical.
Since every … (1 comments)
