Looking at Lofts For Sale in Downtown Los Angeles

Most who call our team are just getting started looking at properties for themselves.  When buyers are ready to start seeing properties in Downtown, they are ready to get free help from a Downtown specialist Realtor(R) who knows the loft and buildings in Downtown L.A., and who has privileged access to more hot deals in Downtown including foreclosures and unlisted properties.  The consultation is always free of charge, and there is never any obligation.

Successful buyers want to see all of the properties that match their criteria.  Our team shows short sales, foreclosures, bank owned, company owned and unlisted properties.  In the free buyer consultation, buyers receive valuable free information from our team, such as what are the most common buyer disasters that happen in Downtown real estate, and how we help to prevent them.  We go over issues in Downtown such as financing challenges in loft buildings, and lawsuits in many Downtown buildings.  We provide information about the neighborhoods, such as the Financial District, South Park, Historic Core, Little Tokyo and the Arts District.

Before seeing the buildings and lofts, I provide detailed information about the building.  A Downtown specialist can give valuable details about the building, including information about pricing, how the HOA dues compare to the average HOA dues in Downtown, the unique parking situation of the building and neighborhood, the amenities of the building, the finishes and view of the building.  Most poignantly, our team provides do-or-die details about the building.

Our team takes seriously our responsibility to give priority to our clients.  Our clients are best cared for when I refuse to help buyers who are competing against my clients for the purchase in the very small inventory of Downtown lofts.

My hundreds of successful clients have chosen me because I am the best Downtown specialist Realtor(R) to help them find the best deal on the best Downtown loft.

Our team has been helping buyers to find lofts in Downtown Los Angeles for more than 10 years.  As a Downtown loft specialist and writer of the L.A. Loft Blog, I write articles about lofts, buildings and neighborhoods in Downtown every day.  The blog posts include details about buying, selling, investing and living in Downtown.  When I cannot help a buyer or seller, I’m always happy to provide referrals to other team members or another appropriate real estate professional.

Our team lives and works in live-work lofts.  Lofts are not for everyone. Lofts have drawbacks.  Lofts were not purposefully built for humans to live in.  They were built as office or industrial spaces.  One of the offices where we meet clients is a huge 2-story live-work loft at Flower Street lofts where 1 couple lives and 11 agents work.  I bought a large 2-story Alta live-work loft where I live.  Lofts are not perfect, but we love lofts.  We love Downtown Los Angeles that is why we live and work here.
