Received several happy emails from clients in Echo Park who were thrilled to come across the following article... It's not too late to get in! Contact me to discuss potential investment opportunities. "Median prices for housing in Echo Park continued to rise last month, and were up 25.3 percent over the year before, to $813,000. That's also an increase of $77,100 since only September 2015, and is more than $282,000 more than Echo Park's median price in 2014. The overall number of sales in the neighborhood is up 40 percent too. For the love of pete, if you want a hip, happenin' home in Echo Park, better do it now, or five years ago." http://la.curbed.com/archives/2016/01/housing_prices_los_angeles_2015_echo_park_west_adams.php

Attention Hawaii Lovers!!! Now is your chance to own a piece of Heaven at The Ritz Carlton Kapalua. I'm working in conjunction with the Ritz to bring you this truly one of a kind opportunity. This storied five-star resort is going through a complete renovation. Of the 107 remodeled condominiums, they have just over 20 left. You can learn more about the resort and get a real-time overview at www.kapaluaresidences.com. Pricing for the condominiums ranges from $688,888 to $2,300,000. They're all one- & two-bedroom lock off units featuring beautiful views of the ocean, Kapalua & the islands of Molokai and Lanai. Please take a video tour here: https://vimeo.com/kapaluaresidences. We're currently offering a special "lease-back" program where buyers can rent their condominium back to the Developer after purchase. This is an attractive program because it provides 5% annual rental payment based on the purchase price (for example, a $1,000,000 purchase would rent for $50,000 per year). The developer pays all property taxes, home-owner fees and furniture reserves. The Buyer receives 14 days of usage during any season. The term of the lease-back is 3 years. We have financing available for US buyers at 30% down @ 4.3%! Please contact me for more information or to arrange a stay. Did I mention round trip flights from LAX to Maui are going for as little as $300 right now?!

It's important to know what you want in a home. It's equally important to know what you don't want or what isn't at the top of your list...
