Kelly McLaren Real Estate Group

Kelly McLaren Real Estate Group Experience. Trust. Integrity. Results. I'm passionate (is obsessed too strong a word?) about real estate and about getting my clients what they want! Creativity.

It's that focus that has earned my clients repeat business and their referrals to friends, family, and colleagues (thank you!). Our mission is to help our Clients achieve their financial and lifestyle goals through real estate, and in 2022 Kelly McLaren Real Estate earned its place in the Top 1.5% of Agents/Teams nationwide. It really does matter who you hire. You can expect a level of service tha

t recognizes your unique situation, needs, and objectives. I specialize in educating and making sure my clients know what to expect in advance (if it's possible to over-communicate throughout the process, I may be guilty of that). I'm going to make the buying and selling journey as smooth as possible for you and your family. And I'm pretty confident we'll enjoy the journey together! After leaving the Canadian Army (that was a while ago!), I joined Fortune 50 United Technologies Corporation and the world of jet engine manufacturing. That launched a successful and global +25-year career in aerospace, where I eventually led large organizations in the US, Canada, Hong Kong, and Latin America. It was aviation that brought our family from Montreal, Canada to Southern California – leaving the snow and freezing winters behind to live our amazing SoCal lifestyle has been a long-time goal truly fulfilled. The teams I led – marketing, purchasing, contracting, business development, and IT – provided me with the deep business and people skills that serve my clients today. What’s different? My former clients were airline operators, government, and military groups around the world. I very often used to fly to get to work. I no longer spend time optimizing aircraft fleet maintenance programs and supply chains for fun. What’s the same? Negotiations. Crafting the right deal for the people involved. Foreseeing issues, and where they can’t be avoided, finding solutions quickly. An intense focus on understanding what the client wants and needs. An intense work ethic. Delivering results that matter. Buying, selling, or investing in real estate – this may be the largest financial and lifestyle decision you will make. I have an amazing team and we are fully committed – and honored – to be with you every step of the way as we help you achieve your goals through real estate! In my spare time, I love spending time with my husband of now +36 years anywhere on or near water, and with our daughter on our mother/daughter adventures!

Homes priced at $1M+ saw sales jump 14.8% compared to last year, even as the overall housing market cooled off. That’s according to the latest data from NAR.

If you’re sitting on a high-end property, this is a good time to be selling. Buyers with serious budgets are active right now, and well-priced luxury listings are moving fast.

Not sure how this applies to your house or our market? Drop a comment or send me a DM, and let’s figure it out together and build a plan that gets you the speed and price you’re after.

First-time buyers, your remote job might give you a homebuying advantage you haven't thought about.

If you can work from anywhere, you can buy just about anywhere, too. And searching in a lower-cost area could mean more homes within your budget. It could also mean spending less on everyday things like gas and groceries after your move.

These states are some of the spots where your money may go the furthest, but they aren't your only options. Every state has pockets with better affordability.

A local agent can match your budget and lifestyle to a shortlist of areas, whether that's a new state or somewhere closer to where you already live. Let's connect and start building yours.

Have you seen the headlines about using your 401(k) to cover a down payment?

Tapping it can feel like an easy call, especially if you’ve got a good chunk saved up. But pulling from retirement early can trigger penalties and set back the savings you'll want later on.

But you don’t necessarily have to raid your retirement to buy a home. You’ve got other options, like FHA loans, which let qualified buyers put down as little as 3.5%. And down payment assistance programs can help, too.

So, before you touch your 401(k), talk with a trusted financial advisor. They can help you find the option that fits your goals and your budget.

You probably think as a general rule of thumb, brand new homes costs more than existing homes. But right now, that's backwards. This shows just how much.

A newly built home costs about $40k less than an existing one right now. That's because builders are cutting prices and piling on incentives to keep their inventory moving.

And that opens up a window for you to get brand new everything for less than you may expect.

DM me if you want a list of nearby new home communities offering deals like this right now to see if a new build may be in your budget after all.
