One Escrow Closed and Another One Opened

I have two first time buyers this month.  One that just closed on a home and another that opened escrow on another.  Congratulation to them both! I couldn't be more excited to help some really great people find their first home. 
                                                                       

Sold! Great Townhome in a Great Area of NoHo

This condo was built in the past 6 years so it has all the new features and comforts someone is looking for.  It also has personal touches such as custom painting, custom closets, new and updated light features, as well as a lovely wine room that looks like it is straight out of something you'd see in NY with the brick wall features. It is super close to all the new restaurants and bars that are popping up all over NoHo as well as the Metro subway which takes you to downtown, Hollywood, LB, and Pasadena.  It is also located in a residential neighborhood which is great since you don't have to deal with facing a busy main street. Congratulations to the buyer of this beautiful condo!

Sold!

I Am In The LA Times Again

It feels really good that the LA Times called me again and asked for my thoughts on the real estate market. And it's always good to see your name in the paper, especially when it's not for a crime or in an obituary. Check out the latest article about our market today and what I have to say http://touch.latimes.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-77383524/

NoHo Is The Place To Be

Wow, NoHo is on the move folks. This town is making some noise and bringing more and more people who want to call it home everyday.  According to this article I attached below, NoHo is ranked #3 on Walkscore.com. This has to do with the fact that NoHo has the metro red line, the orange line, bike paths and lots of great theaters, shops and restaurants all within a short distance.  What this article didn't mention, is that as a commuter, NoHo also has access to the 170, 134, and 101 within blocks of each other. And the places that are popping up here are drawing in people from everywhere.  Have you tried Bow & Truss, the Federal, Republic of Pie or been to the new Laemmle theater or 24 Hour fitness?  Or what about some of the great places that have been here a while like Pitfire Pizza,  Eclectic Cafe, or the famous El Portal theater? I have been to and frequent them all.  It looks like if you want to be where it's happening and you can go from place to place without even getting in your car, then NoHo is the place to be.
