Friends, Family and Clients, Halloween Events, Haunted House & Thing to do in California 2022 Rising Mortgage Rates continue to impose havoc on the real estate market. This is a great time to think about your financial future. The Sky may not be falling but the future is awfully cloudy. The Fed is immune from the pain they have inflicted on the average citizen as their focus remains on putting a halt to the out-of-control inflation that they have caused. There is another anticipated rate increase expected despite all of the warning of the possibility of a massive recession. Check your financial status

buying: Are We in a Real Estate Bubble? Prices on the Rise Few Homes For Sale
- 02/06/21 09:17 PM
Dear Friends, Family & Present and Past Clients, It has been quite a while since our last Newsletter due to the uncertainty we have been facing due to rising prices and Covid-19 concerns. A bubble can burst instantaneously once prices surpass value. This is evident in the stock market with what happened last week with Gamestop. However when it comes to home values the value is based upon the prices that a willing seller and able buyer agree upon. The value has nothing to do with real value, just perceived value. There are too few homes for sale for the amount of

Buyers put home purchasing on hold until Springtime comes near as they are preoccupied with School and Holidays. The News and Media will continuously bombard us with information about the slowing real estate market. This slowing is due to this annual phenomenon. Homes that will be on the market are being

buying: What you need to know before renting a home in 2017
- 07/19/17 08:35 PM
Are you thinking of signing a lease rather than buying a home? Stop! Read this before signing on the dotted line! Times have changed and the fear of a 40% market crash have all but disappeared. Fear of loss is outweighed by personal and financial benefits. Why did the real estate market crash in 2006? It was political and both parties were to blame. Democrats felt as though home ownership was the right of all Americans and Republicans went along with the idea. The government forced banks and lending institutions to lend out money. Creative financing was created. First came Interest Only Loans. Then came

buying: Let's give credit where credit is due!
- 01/05/17 03:52 PM
America is doing well and our real estate industry is flourishing. This is a great time to stop party politics and give credit where credit is due. President Obama inherited an atrocious economy and real estate market. Things were spiraling out of control. The plans that were implemented saved the auto industry, lending institutions and most important to many of us on Activerain, the real estate market. Steps that were taken are unprecedented such as having lenders work out short sales rather than foreclosure in most circumstances. They also gave forgiveness on the money saved should a person lose their home. I know the

buying: Will your decision today change the future?
- 03/20/16 04:11 AM
Spring of 2016 enters with a shortage of housing. Rising prices and the potential of the rise of interest rates will make it more difficult for first time buyers to compete for a home. Pent up demand with many buyers sitting on the fence continues to fuel the unlimited supply of buyers for the dwindling inventory. Compound this with the fact that Millennials, about 83.1 million, now outnumber Baby Boomers. The housing market has recovered since the start of the recession in 2006. However prices are still below the prices at the peak of the market. There are more qualified buyers

buying: Prices are Up yet Activity is Down, Go figure!
- 01/05/16 01:21 PM
Supply and demand ultimately determine the value of an. y product with homes being no exception. However this relationship is sometimes disguised as it surely is this year. The stock market, China devaluation of their currency, financial problems in Europe and war in the middle-east should all dictate a slowdown in the rise of home prices. There are less buyers out there looking for a home but as it turns out, those looking are highly motivated and buying homes. The low inventory of homes for sale has kept homes scarce and given home owners confidence to list at a higher price. Homes

- 03/21/15 01:36 AM
Whoever shows the house gets the commission. We don't get paid unless we close escrow. Ask your agent not me. Tell them at the Open House you have your own agent. There are many things we know as Realtors and are unknown to the general public. It is our job and responsibility to educate the public instead of knocking them for not knowing how we work. It seems to me that many if not most Realtors aren't aware that the way we work is common to us but unknown to the general public. Here are the facts; we only get paid if we
