Good news if you're house hunting: the asking price may not be the final word. Right now, about 60% of homes are selling below their original asking price. With budgets stretched thin, a little give on price or terms can take some pressure off your wallet. But how much you can negotiate depends on where you're buying. So, let's chat about what you can ask for in the neighborhoods you're eyeing.

Your first home may not be as far off as it feels. When the numbers make sense for you, buying a starter home and putting down less than 20% can get you there years sooner.

Want to see which starter homes in our area could fit your budget? Let's connect.

For a lot of first-time buyers, owning a home can feel perpetually a few years out of reach.

JUST SOLD | 4 UNITS | $750,000 🏢🔑

My buyer didn’t just buy real estate — they bought an income-producing asset.

We negotiated a great purchase price AND money toward repairs, and from the moment escrow closed, this property is generating approximately $1,000 per month in positive cash flow. 💰

That’s approximately $12,000 a year while owning an asset with the potential to build equity and appreciate over time.

What could YOU do with an extra $1,000 a month? 👀

Now ask yourself this:

How much is your CD, money market account, or the money sitting in your bank making you every month?

Real estate investing is about more than buying property. It’s about buying the right property, at the right price, with numbers that make sense.

If you’re thinking about investing in a duplex, triplex, fourplex, or other income-producing property, I can do the same for you.

Higher mortgage rates are making buyers more cost-conscious. Builders know that, and many are responding with reduced rate, closing-cost help, price reductions, and other incentives.
If you're thinking about selling, let's look at what buyers are getting from other homes in our area – including new construction – and make sure your house is positioned to compete.

Higher mortgage rates don't just affect buyers. They can change what it takes to sell your house, too.

Higher mortgage rates are making buyers pay closer attention to one thing: the monthly payment.

And builders know it. Right now, 13.8% of new-construction listings are advertising reduced rates, giving some buyers a way to bring that monthly payment down.

So, if you're selling near new construction, that's something worth paying attention to. But it doesn't mean you automatically need to match what a builder is offering.

Depending on your house, your market, and the buyer, competing could mean negotiating on price, helping with closing costs, offering a rate buydown, or simply doing a better job highlighting what your house offers that a new build doesn't.

The point isn't to give more away...

Whether you're bracing for a crash or hoping for one, the verdict is the same – prices are still expected to rise, not fall. Let's talk about what that means for your market and your plans.

Half the buyers out there are scared home prices are about to crash. The other half are hoping they will.

🏢 SOLD | LOS FELIZ 4 UNITS | $1,020,000

Some closings mean a little more than others.

This was one of them. ❤️

I had the privilege of representing the seller of this fully occupied four-unit property in Los Feliz, and behind the SOLD sign was a transaction with many complexities and many layers.

The property had below-market rents, deferred maintenance, existing tenants, and was sold completely AS-IS. In addition, the sale was contingent upon my seller successfully identifying and securing her replacement property for a 1031 exchange.

There were a lot of moving pieces that had to come together — and timing mattered.

I wasn’t simply selling a four-unit property. I was navigating the complexities of selling my client’s existing investment while simultaneously protecting her ability to transition into her next one.

SOLD — $1,020,000 🙏

This closing reinforces something I believe strongly:

Experience makes the difference — but experience in the RIGHT type of real estate matters even more.

If you own a duplex, triplex, fourplex, apartment building, or other income property and you’ve been thinking about selling — even if your property has challenges — call me before you assume those challenges will prevent you from selling.

And if a 1031 exchange may be part of your next move, let’s start that conversation early and put a strategy in place.
