Mid-Century Home on Cul-de-sac in Tarzana.  Open House Friday, 12p-3p.  4735 Amigo Ave. Walking into this home brings to mind memories of Thanksgiving at Grandma’s, since it’s decked out in mid-century furnishings and warm family love.  You can almost hear the children playing Rock’em Sock’em while mom heats some TV dinners.  The entry-way welcomes you with a built-in indoor planter (traditional for that time) and leads you into the open and bright living room with beamed ceilings, a fireplace and plantation shutters. The family room joins the dining area and kitchen with the living room resulting in a pleasant flow that is excellent for entertaining.  The kitchen is meticulously maintained, so you are free to decide if you’d like to use it as-is or renovate.  This house has great bones... 11/17/2011

One of my client's contacted me today  and left a voice mail and asked me: '...I have an investment home in Tarzana, Should I sell now or wait until January when there are more intrested buyers?..." You can imagine how interesting this voice mail was to me. I have blogged about the need to sell now vs. later. Reference: Tarzana real estate market. I have analyzed the data and wanted to share with you. There are some serious price decreases. I have enclosed some of the statistics for your review. In comparison to September 2008 and September 2009 the median Sold Price has dropped by 44%. The Inventory supply is about 14 months. What that means is a long Marketing and Sales process is what we will be facing.   Reference: The question of waiting until January to market your house would be ... 10/19/2009

I blame the government for not regulating the mortgage industry for this housing crisis.  Homeownership being the number 1 investment vehicle for the United states should have had more protection than to let a bunch of mortgage brokers fool people into these silly loans.  This mortgage meltdown is now affecting people that had NOTHING to do with the loans, even renters.  I recently heard about a condo complex near me whose HOA fell $30,000 under because so many people foreclosed in the complex and the HOA dues are not being paid. The HOA is now late on their bills and may have to pose an assessment.  Rental prices are going up because homeowners now have to rent.   With all these bad things going on it's spells a great time for first time homebuyers.If you missed the last wave, you bett... 04/16/2008

I have recently read an article in Dailynews.com entitled, "Fix it up to help it sell".  I have been saying this for some time and even though I am repeating myself, it is something I truly believe.  Prepare your home so that it will stand out among other similarly priced offers.  When home sales drop, sellers who are serious about selling their home will do everything possible to make their home an irresistible value.  These days, those who can afford it are hiring professional stagers and staging companies to prepare their homes in a way that is very attractive to prospective buyers.  This article offers DIY tips for folks who cannot afford the services of a staging company.From improving the landscaping, making the entrance of your home more inviting and redoing floors to adding stai... 09/13/2007
