Shopping and Giving Back - Love It

I just thought this was a cool idea.   Shop this weekend at SteinMart, donate $5.00 and you will get that $5.00 back along with 15% off your entire purchase.  It is win/win.

Urban Living in Irvine - Are Singles Buying?

Lately my phone has really began to ring with single homebuyers inquiring about the urban condo's listed in the various high rises throughout Irvine.  I think urban living may be catching on with the single demographic what do you think?

I admit this condo, grabs my attention! 

What I am hearing from Singles is this:

• These homes meet their desired lifestyle - they are busy professionals not looking for the typical white picket fence home.
• They love the concierge service - they are all ready spending dollars each month on fitness, entertainment, etc now it is included
• Location is key

Currently there are approximatly 13 homes listed in Irvine, priced from $360,000-$1.599,000. 

So what do you think, is urban living for you?  Let us know!

Tips for South Orange County Single First-Time Homebuyers

Was reading this post this am in the O.C. Register and wanted to share as it is comprensive post on what to look for when buying your first home, especially navigating the buying waters as a single home buyer.

Three Key Points:

Financing First - I don't know how many buyers contact me who have no idea what their credit score is or debt to income ratio.   In order to understand what you can afford these are two aspects that must be looked at months if not years before you buy your first home!

Shopping Smart: Shopping smart is a critical factor when not only choosing the home you are going to buy but also the team you select to help you find that home.  Do as much advanced research on the Real Estate Agent and the Lender you select as the home you choose. 

It is a Process:  It is hard work finding your first home, but once you find it, that is when the work really begins!  Remember it is a process in which you have to stay committed.  That means no spending sprees's during the transactions.  Meeting time-lines and understanding escrow isn't closed till it is Closed! 

Buying your first home is one of the most terrifying and exciting life events.  For me, it was all about the team I chose to help me buy my first home, were they looking out for my best interest, was always first in mind. If you have any doubt then the last thing to remember is you are in control!

Newport Beach - The place to be for the rich and single

Ok, we all know Newport Beach is the place to be for the rich, but what about the rich and "single".  This kinda gives me a chuckle.  For years a motherly friend of mine has said, you should move to Newport Beach......

Maybe unfortunate for me, but the way I look at Orange County is we all pretty blessed and hey Newport like anyother place in the O.C is just 20-30 minutes away.

So how did we rank, check it the article in the O.C. Register.

Let me know what you think.  Are you ready to move to Newport and want information on what single home buyers search for, give us a call.
