Hello everyone. I thought that I would start off my first blog talking about my grand opening of my new office here in Irvine California. I am a franchise owner of the Avalar network. My brokerage is called SoCal Avalar Real Estate. Here is a picture of the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony held by the City of Irvine on February 22nd.   That's me in the middle with the big smile!!!We had the Councilmember from the city to welcome us in and it was so much fun. Afterwards, we went inside where we had a Jazz Band that was playing some really good music for us. The Jazz Band is actually part of the Academy Awards Band!!!. We had beautiful decor and food to go along with the perfect night. We had about 150 realtors come and join the festivities. The agents that came were from local real estate office ...

IRVINE FORECLOSURES AND IRVINE SHORT SALES Irvine currently has approximately 150 homes in some stage of foreclosure.  The state of foreclosure ranges from an NOD (notice of default) when the owner is behind on the loan payments all the way to the final stage know as the "notice of trustee's sale" when the lender is calling for the sale of the home. A portion of these homes in the foreclosure stage are offered for sale.  These are know as short sales.  A short sale happens when the home is offered for sale for an asking price less than the total liens on the home.  If you are interested in the possibility of purchasing one of the Irvine Short Sales that's currently on the market you should contact The Pahua Group at (949) 309-2400.  We specialize in buyer representation of Irvine Forecl...

Coldwell Banker View Magazine - August 21, 2007  For years, high-rises have been the "pied a terre" living choice of the affluent around the globe, and the current feeling of real estate investors and developers is that Orange County should reflect that trend. A tremendous surge of high-rise living in Orange County communities has emerged and from the looks of it, there is no slowing down. Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage Irvine office top agent James Hoppe, who is also a licensed California architect, has worked directly with other architects and engineers who are pioneering this new Orange County high-rise lifestyle. He believes that this trend won't be short lived. John F. Kennedy once said, "Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain t...

In the last year over 100 mortgage lenders have gone out of business due to the "mortgage meltdown" as most of you might now it is getting much more difficult to qualify for mortgages in Irvine. The reason it is difficult to qualify for your Irvine mortgage is because guidelines have changed drastically. Even reverse mortgages in Irvine are getting harder to qualify for, leaving many looking for a honest mortgage company in Irvine.Since many mortgage brokers in Irvine are going out of business, and others are not able to get you qualified, you need to call a reputable company to help you with your home mortgage in Irvine. We here at America One Mortgage Group are a national company headquartered out of Southern California. We have offices in many states and fund millions of dollars wort...

I dug a small hole, the earth still soft from the recent rain, and dropped in the small figurine. Upside down, the rear of the house, facing the house, 3' from the wall, 12" deep. Those were the instructions ... now it's up to St. Joseph. It's amazing the lengths we Realtors will go to in an effort to sell a home. I purchased several St. Joseph home selling kits from The King's House in Scottsdale, Az. The owner of this family business, Bob Weflen, said that he has sold nearly 600 of these St. Joseph kits in the last 3 months. He mentioned that a friend of his in Pittsburgh has sold over 150 in less than a week. I'm suggesting that we forget home sales figures, forget inventory levels, forget the charts and look to St Joseph as an indicator of the kind of real estate market we are in. I...
