Fashion District Lofts and a Great Neighborhood to Live In!

DTLA districts.

With many new lofts coming onto the market next month, I have decided to write a series of blogs on the Districts of Downtown Los Angeles.  If you are interested in purchasing a loft or just interested in the growing downtown area, it’s better to know the districts.

The Fashion District is full of industrial buildings that are now converted to lofts as well as newly constructed lofts.

Santee Alley is one of the most popular shopping areas in the LA Fashion District, best known for its festival-like atmosphere and amazing bargains. Santee Alley’s over 150 stores and vendors sell everything from apparel for the entire family, accessories, toys, perfume, gift items and much more!

The LA Fashion District is where the business of fashion happens.

80% of the LA Fashion District is comprised of wholesale-related business and is the hub of the apparel industry on the West Coast. Buyers, retailers, wholesalers and designers all gather here, creating an exciting synergy that has become synonymous with Los Angeles fashion. The world looks to LA and the LA Fashion District for the cutting edge styles that are influencing the way the world dresses.

ECKARDT LOFTSThe LA Fashion District is home to the largest  wholesale and retail floral selection in the United States.

Focused along 8th Street, virtually every  variety of cut flower can be found, plus potted plants, dried and silk flowers  and floral supplies. The LA Flower Market, the largest flower market in the  United States, is centered along Wall Street, between 7th Street and 8th Street  and is the premier resource for those in the floricultural industry. The LA  Flower Market is comprised of the American Florist Exchange and the  Southern California Flower Market. Many other flower stores can be found on 8th  Street, between Wall Street and San Pedro Street.

New Lofts for Sale in Downtown Los Angeles. Why a buyers agent that specializes in Lofts is essential!

New Lofts are being sold in Downtown Los Angeles for the first time in a very long time.  Lofts have been sold out in Downtown Los Angeles and getting in front of other buyers is very important.  The best lofts in buildings get sold first and rarely are put back on the market.  Using a real estate agent who represents both buyers and sellers will often result in a higher purchasing price, and will often bring more problems for the buyer.

A Loft is not a Condominium or a house.  This is obvious, Right?  Well not really.  Even though Lofts have HOA fees, they are not Condominiums.  Lofts do not qualify for conventional loans and if a agent is not experienced they will not discover this fact until it is often too late for the buyer.

While lofts do not qualify for conventional loans it does not mean they do not qualify for mortgages.  It means that a purchaser, the real estate agent, and the loan agent must work to get documentation and contact lenders that will fund a loft.  Often, a lender will use conventional lenders and not find out until the end of escrow they can not use conventional lenders.  This will often extend escrow while appropriate lenders are found, or will end escrow and the seller will walk away.  Don’t let your dream loft slip from your hands because your agent and loan agent are at the beginning of the learning curve when it comes to Lofts!  Corey Chambers at the Keller Williams team are experienced in special lending terms and can help turn this nightmare into a advantage when competing with other purchasers.

Law suits is a ugly term.  But more than 20% of Loft buildings are in the middle of some law suit of one kind or another.  If you work directly with a developer to purchase a loft, or if you a use a agent that does not specialize in Lofts, chances are you will not be informed of existing law suits and how it affects the owners of the lofts in a particular building.  As a experienced loft specialist, Corey Chambers will let you know of impending law suits that a building may have.  Often many loft buyers complete escrow and find out later that there are outstanding law suits against a building.  A developer is not required to inform buyers of impending law suits.  Corey Chambers has a 100% satisfaction rating because he gives the buyers the bad news up front.

Pocket listings or secret supplies are common place in the loft market.  Many lofts are not listed on the MLS.  There are many reasons for this, but ultimately it means that there are beautiful lofts on the market that get over looked buy purchasers.  Corey Chambers has 100s of pocket listings for lofts for sale in Downtown Los Angeles.  Only a handful of agents specialize in lofts and developers use these specialist when they have earned their confidence.

Lofts are going to market this year, and there are fewer loft warehouse conversions available in the future.
