That Poison-is an odorless gas that can set off your new alarm if you have one! Cost is only about 30 dollars in a single family home. Who needs it?
Do you have an attached garage?
Do you have a fossil-fuel (wood) burning fireplace? (or appliance)

Redondo Beach Real Estate and Short Sales
0 Comments Published by popelynne December 1st, 2009 in Lender/realtors, Uncategorized. by popelynneThe pricier areas will likely have more short sales show up soon. Keep several things in mind…LENDERS- Investors are bidding up the lower income properties and this may be harder for the lenders who have to get people qualified for the conforming and Jumbo loans.
Redondo Beach may have some affordable properties show up in the short sale arena.
NEW INFORMATION:
Short Sales have been difficult to close, and these new measures are a huge step in the right direction. One major highlight: A lender must give a yes or no answer to an offer within 10 days. Also included: a moving allowance, incentives for sellers and lenders, commission rules, and a stipulation that releases sellers from debt liabilities.
This is a very HOT topic. Stay tuned to know how this can help you buy or sell a home. As a CDPE specialist- (Certified Distressed Property Expert) expect to keep up on the latest breaking news.

First Time Homebuyers Tax Credit -really!
0 Comments Published by popelynne November 8th, 2009 in Lender/realtors, Uncategorized. by popelynneGot to love Saturday night live, because we live in California we spend about 10 times more for a house and sometimes have jobs that allow us to pay that mortgage. The Government has not really figured out the State of California and NY and a few other places don’t fit the “one size fits all ” regime of thought.
The first time home buyer credit did help one of my buyers this year! Hooray.
It was almost a miracle. Getting the right home in escrow and closing in the timeframe. Now with the new tax credit…it could help others.
However…see if it “Fits” your income.
“The first-time homebuyer tax credit may be restricted by the taxpayer¢â‚¬â„¢s income. The tax credit starts to phase out for an individual taxpayer with a modified adjusted gross income from $75,001 to $95,000 (or $150,001 to $170,000 for joint filers). The tax credit is eliminated entirely if an individual¢â‚¬â„¢s modified adjusted gross income is over $95,000 (or $170,000 for joint filers). (26 U.S.C. § 36(b)(2″
Soon I will add a page from NAR that shows the way the formula could work if you fit the income formula. Your lender and tax people will have to get involved with you to actually work out all the facts. Your realtor can help get you all you need on the house, the time frame and keep the ball in the air till your people measure your exact profile to see if it works.
College towns Affordable and a GREAT idea
0 Comments Published by popelynne November 7th, 2009 in Uncategorized. by popelynneSending Amy off to college? Think about finding a condo or home for her to live in and have a roomate help pay the mortgage. Visit one you can stay there while you get her settled and decorate. After 4 years, you can sell it and in this climate….2010 you should be able to sell it at a profit. Wouldn’t it be great if that paid you back for her tuition. This has happened many times for people that I personally know. It would have happened to people that I know that thought about it and didn’t do it. After the 4 years, I mentioned it to one friend and we agreed that it definately would have worked.
This is a link to an article emphasizing a real estate company. Just disregard that and stay RE/MAX and work with me!
Hermosa Beach had a cute small home for 450K when someone I know well thought California prices are crazy. Five years later they bought at 799K. Think long term and you will see the real estate market has always been a moving target. Low prices now and low interest rates are so great and so many people are not in a positon to buy. Thats what creates these markets. Advise your children to save for another great day like this or a rainy day like this.

BANKING-Thomas Jefferson style
0 Comments Published by popelynne October 17th, 2009 in Uncategorized. by popelynneThe importance of History has never been more needed than today. A recent blog brought the work of Thomas Jefferson to mind regarding banking concerns.
Quotation: “If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered…I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies… The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.”
Variations:
- “If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered.”
- “I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies…”
- “The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.”
I have new appreciation for my father and mother who lived though the depression. I learned to turn off lights when I leave a room, no matter what. Our families today have a first ever realization that the old adage money does not grow on trees may have new meaning. We can save our trees. Globally for every reason. Paper changing the form of communication. (newspaper-email)
What are we teaching our children? What are we leaving for them?
