First market report of the year! ✨
Jan 2023 showed a decrease in New, Pending and Closing sales which is contributing to an increase of available homes we have on the market (2.2 months of supply of inventory) with homes still getting 98.6% of their asking price. The rise in interest rates cause be a culprit for the decrease of sales but the market is still moving!

What questions do you have on the current real estate market? I’d love to know! 🙂

I like to think of a pre-approval like a physical exam for your finances 💰and before lenders decide to pre-approve you for a mortgage they will want to take a look at these key factors🧐:

- Debt- to income ratio
- Credit history (no it doesn’t need to be perfect)
-Income
-Employment history

This process can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days but it’s truly the only way to know how much home you can afford, and if not approved they can guide you on what steps can be taken to get you there. 😊🏡

Happy early Valentines day!
Here are some last minute date ideas for the love birds out there!🥰🦢💕
I've personally have done the Swan Boats which are SUPER cute.. and the food at Eataly was amazing I can't wait to do the class myself!

If you overprice now you will get beat up over the price later! 💯

Don’t shoot the messenger but it’s NOT agents or sellers that determine a homes sales price..it’s the buyer! 🫣

Well priced homes create urgency which will lead buyers to act quickly with strong offers🏡💪 while overpricing your home can ironically reduce the eventual sales price!

Be honest.. when the the last time you cleaned your fridge!! 😳😂

Last update for 2022! 🏡

We ended the year with a shift in the market and had to say goodbye to 2% interest rates and homes selling rapidly for over asking price and started to see more opportunity for buyers as homes started to sit longer with offers being accepted for or below asking price... with concessions! 😮

We're still in an inventory crunch (2.1 supply) with homes selling 98.6% of their asking price which is great news if you are selling but remember pricing your home right is key. 🔑

If you are thinking of purchasing this is a great time to take advantage of low competition that's been out there especially before the spring season hits! 🌸

Updating headshots in the office today!

Multi Family homes are the new starter homes!

The Trend is Clear: Multifamily Construction on the Rise Data shows that there are more multifamily than single-family units under construction.

Looking forward to seeing you all this weekend! I couldn’t think of a better way to spend a Saturday afternoon showcasing this beautiful property and meeting potential buyers. 🏡
Private tours are also available. 🔑

What i’m seeing is inventory suggests CA is still in a moderate sellers market but I’ll tell you what.. I’ve been getting more alerts in my inbox from listings talking about price reductions & seller concessions. 🫣🏡
Are there still some homes selling over asking within days on market? Yes
Are you having to play The Hunger Games to compete to get into a new home? No

Providing job history is one of the several criteria a lender will want to see when you are applying for a home loan and they ideally like to see two years employment. It’s still possible for you to qualify even if you don’t exactly meet this criteria.

No on SB679!

• The cost of funding subsidized housing projects should be borne by ALL residents, not just homeowners and property owners. It is agreed that creating more affordable housing benefits the entire community. If that’s the case, the entire community should pay for it.

• Encourages the removal of homeownership opportunities. These agencies will provide funding to corporate owners who can purchase single family homes, which will decrease opportunities for ownership by working Californians.

• Agencies are not required to construct new housing. Agencies can simply fund developers to buy existing properties, competing with our state’s working families seeking to achieve the dream of home ownership.

• They will make homeownership less affordable. New taxes and bond costs on homeowners will increase costs for both those seeking to purchase a home and those who have already struggled and stretched to afford the home they have already purchased. Increasing their taxes will undermine working families’ ability to stay in their home and create wealth.
