HOME BUYERS STORyI know a young couple who looked at a home twice, with two very different impressions. For a background, they have been looking for a home in this particular neighborhood for some time. They didn't have an urgent need to move, but were getting tired of apartment living. so a quick move was preferable. They'd contacted a Lender and pre-qualified themselves for financing and knew the general amount they wanted to spend. The first time they saw the hone it was decorated very tastefully but in a very formal manner. For some reason, it gave them the impression that a lot of work would have to be done to make it their own. So they decided to wait until something else came along in the neighborhood.  Several months later, another home came on the market in the very same neighb...

What Happens When My Appraisal Comes in Low (or High!)? You’re in the process of buying a home, and so far things have been going pretty smoothly.  Your lender has pre-approved you, your Realtor has found you the perfect home, and with a bit of luck, the seller accepted your offer and now you’re in contract.  It’s very likely that early on in your loan process --- usually within the first few days of having your offer accepted --- your lender ordered an appraisal.  From there, a licensed appraiser went out to the property and then turned in a completed appraisal report (which, at its core, is a professional opinion of value).  Of course, you know the dollar amount you’re paying for the home because that figure is on your contract.  But what happens if the appraisal doesn’t support that ...

Buy Before Selling?  Four Sure! Four Sure! In strong sellers' markets, like the San Fernando Valley, the San Francisco Bay Area and many other areas across the country, making a contingent offer is a virtual impossibility.  That is, when a buyer must sell his current home first in order to close on the new one, and when the purchase offer on the new home is specifically written to alert the seller that the two transactions are interdependent, it is said to be "contingent."  Another, less subtle, way to describe contingent offers might be, "dead on arrival."  This is because the seller knows that if the buyer of the new home cannot sell his existing home (in time or at all), the new deal would likely be off because our buyer would either not have the down payment, the qualifying income, ...

Meet & Connect with Inna Ivchenko  a Green Realtor from Encino, CA.... Thanks to an Active Rain Challenge we were asked to Profile a Member. This was such a no brainer for me, Inna Ivchenko was my choice to profile here.  When she is not blogging on Active Rain, you can find her at the Q & A section. She is virtually on every social media platform. It is hard to fathom that she has any time left for Active Rain. In all fairness, I know the answer: because she is a workaholic.If you do not follow or interact with Inna, you are doing yourself a major disservice. More importantly if you do not have her represent you in the purchase or sale of your home, you are missing out on the services of a great Realtor. I have known Inna, well over ten years, when we were working for the same large na...

1. Price the property competitively. 2. Allow the property to be shown with or without an appointment, just as long as the prospective buyer’s agent is present. Make sure to get the agent’s business card. 3. Whenever possible, please be out of the house when prospective buyers and their agents want to see it. Buyers need to "try it on for size", and they can't do that as long as you are there. 4. Eliminate any barrier to the free flow of traffic in the home. Such items as bulky or extra furniture, house plants that stick into traffic ways, toys or clothes not put away, beds not made, etc., slow down traffic and make rooms look smaller and darker.  5. Your agent is on your side and won't get paid until you get results.  Advice from a professional is useless unless you take it! 6. Look a...

Blooms are back!

Did you know?Encino is a place of unique origins. In 1769 Gasper de Portola landed in the Monterey region of California. During his expedition he was greeted by several hundred Grabielino Indians near Encino Springs under the mighty oak trees that would Encino its name, which is Spanish for "oak tree." Within a generation, Encino Springs was know throughout California. He returned to Spain after claiming the territory for the King and Queen of Spain.  *If you are looking for a home in S.F.Valley or Los Angeles CA, please be sure to conta...

Should I list my house now or wait until a ''Spring market rush''? Many factors will impact your decision of when to list your house and what is ''the right time to sell for me'' is one of them. If you look carefully at these interactive charts for Encino, Woodland Hills, Calabasas, Tarzana cities, you will notice that if you list now: there is less competition! The fewer number of similar homes of sale, the faster you sell. The current level of inventory is extremely low, most houses receive multiple offers fast because serious motivated buyers are buying 365 days/year! mortgage rates are still low. Take advantage of that. if you trade up, do not wait. If interest rates and home prices will rise, it is better to trade up now ( wait if you trade down.) And after all: is it ALWAYS summer...
