This photo is what Van Cleef & Arpels deemed appropriate for their remodel on the corner Rodeo Drvie and Dayton Drive in Beverly Hills.  Unlike Bulgari, Van Cleef Arpels' jewelry is classic in its luxury appeal.  It is an old world French jewelry compnay, founded in 1906 on the venerable Place Vendome in Paris. The brand is known for its signature mystery settings where the prongs are concealed.  Van Cleef & Arpels' customers have included the Duchess of Windsor, Grace Kelly and Elizabeth Taylor.

Let’s see how the Beverly Hills real estate market did in the 1st Quarter of 2012 as compared with the same period in 2011. The numbers are taken from the MLS/CLAW and are deemed reliable but not guaranteed.  Also, they reflect single family home sales only. Number sold:  28, a 20% decrease over the same period last year. Median price:  $4,075,000, a 54.65% increase over the same period last year. There are 100 active listings.  The an average sale of 9.33 homes per month there is an absorption rate of 10.72 months.  This means that it will take 10.72 months to sell the existing inventory.  A balanced market is 6 months of inventory.  Anything above that does not favor sellers. If you look at the absorption rate for homes below $4 Million, then the picture is a little rosier, with 7.62 ... 04/21/2012

  I am loving this real estate market right now. The moment has arrived! Record breaking mortgage rates, the highest level of home affordability in years, increased demand, and a decrease of homes on the market- make this one of the best times to buy or sell a home in recent years!   According to Realtor.com the number of homes on the market has fallen 22% in the last month. In addition, asking prices have increased 6.8% as demand from buyers has increased. Inventory of homes on the market is estimated to be at a 6.1 month supply, which is the lowest level since 2006 when the housing market was at its peak. We are all experiencing the shortage of inventory in our market, making it an excellent time to sell your home. Good homes that are priced well are flying off the market to serious, ... 04/17/2012

The Realtor's Role: Assume Nothing! Anticipate, Ask, Assess, Analyze, Advise: Brentwood, Beverly Hills, Bel Air, and...Los Angeles at large is known for being very culturally diverse and is now drawing a large number of foreign investors.  In today's global real estate market, when it comes to finding a home or selling a home for a client, we have to be prepared with the right questions, devise a plan to be sure we communicate properly, and go the extra mile to be sure we are up-to-date with new lending policies, foreign affairs and basic cultural practices that could make or break a deal.  I'm not suggesting you run out and buy a CD set to learn how to speak Mandarin, but a basic book in everyday business practices wouldn't hurt. Most importantly, ASSUME NOTHING! I have learned through... 04/10/2012

Happiness comes in a Pink Box!  Recently, Alan May wrote a cutesy putesy blog about the latest craze... a Cupcake ATM in Beverly Hills, CA.  Being the cupcake connoisseur that I am, I had to go there and experience a little divinity for myself.  It was everything I imagined and more! A line of curious cupcake fans  formed outside the Sprinkles Cupcakes store on Santa Monica Blvd. as cupcake connoisseurs waited with baited breath to test out the new cupcake ATM.  I couldn't help but video my experience (as promised... Alan... now if I could only get it downloaded from my phone!) so you could get a first-hand glimpse of the pink cupcake ATM.  The dark chocolate cupcakes were definitely my favorite, but I also bought a strawberry cupcake for my grand-daughter, a pumpkin cupcake for my son-... 03/31/2012

The adoption of increasingly advanced mobile devices has inherently changed consumer and business expectations of communication and access to information. Because of technology built into mobile devices that collects data about user behavior — data not available through traditional desktop forms of computing — the expectation of what an application can offer is also evolving and becoming more sophisticated. As behavioral input affects application development and, in turn, user expectation, the consumer and business market will continue to migrate to and ultimately depend on mobile computing, currently a technological genesis of possibilities. 03/24/2012

Certainly, if a homeowner chooses to do nothing, foreclosure is imminent – it’s just a matter of time.  However, it is recommended by many that a homeowner should try to avoid foreclosure if another alternative is available.
