California Exodus and the Big Cover-Up

Californians Leaving for Other States: Why They Don’t Want You to Know

REAL ESTATE NEWS (Los Angeles, CA) — Middle-class taxpayers are fleeing the state, and Governor Gavin Newsom does not want anyone to know the truth, neither does the University of California, nor does the L.A. Times. The radical left leaning rag even goes as far as to try to bully the truth tellers by calling them “haters.” In this article, we’ll reveal the real story, and will expose the real haters and lovers of the once golden state. As with anyone who loves theirself, they continuously try to improve themselves so that they may be of better service to others. For those who love the state, they focus on improving the state so that it can be a better place for all. Those who hate the state would obviously be against improving the state, thus try to block the first step in improvement — recognizing the need for improvement.

Even the LA Times has been forced to admit that there was an uptick in movement away from the state. In the final quarter of 2020, another 139,000 people departed California than arrived. The rag tried to poopoo this drop, as if it was nothing. In reality, this signals a monumental change for the state that once attracted far more residents than other states than it lost to other states. That old positive trend has now completely reversed. The Times has also admitted that growth has been slowing in recent years. The paper fails to disclose the reasons for the exodus from the state: exploding crime, rising prices, rising taxes, rampant homeless encampments, growing trash, growing psychosis and growing dangers, combined with an inability for local municipalities and police departments to protect citizens. Women and children cannot walk safely to schools, parks and stores, thus cannot fully enjoy a normal, healthy life in too many parts of the state.

The L.A. Times tries to make the problems sound like temporary, transitory issues. The problem is that some of these issues may not be very temporary, and, like overall inflation, California’s problems may actually be transitory from bad to worse. We can see with our own eyes, and hear with our own ears, about friends and acquaintances who are moving to Arizona, Nevada, Texas and other states. While calling exodus fears “overblown,” CalMatters admits that twice as many Californias moved away from the state compared to those who moved here from other U.S. states.

Google has directly taken part in the cover-up by using its algorithm to automatically bury websites and posts about the exodus, while raising the visibility of articles that attempt to deny the exodus. Google cannot, however, deny that some form of exodus is occurring, and certainly cannot deny that more Californians are recently considering leaving the state, as can be easily seen on its own Google Trends, with exodus interest accelerating rapidly during the state’s extreme bout of virus hysteria, tyrannical lockdowns and ineffective mandates that continue to this day. The real pandemic is the dangerous epidemic of propaganda that continues unabated in the state, yet another reason that many leave to live in areas with people-friendly, business-friendly honest, transparent governments and local culture of free speech.

Politico reports that the state’s population may have peaked. The San Francisco Bay Area has shriveled the most, including Berkeley and Oakland. In addition to those moving away, the birth rate dropped below the death rate, and immigration from Mexico and other countries slowed. Penske moving truck records confirm the California exodus, with a preponderance of those moves to Texas.

The Loft Blog team has lived in California for many decades, and we prefer to stay. We prefer to help the state recognize its recent failings so that California can turn itself around. Before that can happen, we must accept the inconvenient facts, from which we may then determine the reasons why more are moving away from CA than are moving here from other states. By making the tough changes, California has a great chance to reverse these trends, and to once again regain its status and title as the most attractive state in the union, as The Golden State.

Relocation Confusion

Making a move is rarely an easy process.  There are often a great many steps that need to be taken, with advance planning required, and with a large financial outlay at stake. #relocation #moving #dtla

Most relocation companies focus on moving, storage and resources for helping to find a new home or office.  Some relocation companies, however, have real estate revenue in mind as well. A recent Downtown Los Angeles home seller recently had some confusing issues arise from a relocation company provided by the transferring employer.

Early in the listing period, the listing agent received a concerning call from the seller, who had been difficult to reach by phone. The home seller asked the listing agent to contact and coordinate with the relocation company.  The agent called the relocation company, which was attempting to get a referral fee for referring the home sale to another real estate company.  The only problem is that the listing agent, (a successful specialist in the condo building that has a 55.6% failure rate) already had a listing agreement with the home seller, and the relocation company was apparently not respecting the pre-existing agent-client relationship.

The relocation company talked to the home seller again, seemingly to pressure the seller into cancelling the listing agent’s agreement by threatening to take away the relocation benefits due to a lack of “compliance”. This left the seller feeling very concerned that the listing agent was not complying fully with their process. The employer offers wonderful relocation benefits and the home seller cannot afford to lose them. The seller can’t proceed without complying with the employer’s policies.

The home sellers asked for the listing agent’s assurance that they will comply completely with what the relocation company needs from the to act as the seller’s realtor? If not the seller will have to cancel the listing agreement.

The listing agent and senior agents had never seen a relocation company behave in the manner.

Relocation companies do not usually interfere with hired brokers, and it is usually unacceptable in California for brokers to interfere with other brokers and their clients. In this unusual situation where the relocation company really wants to make real estate money, the seller and listing agent need to know exactly what they and are being asked to comply with. The relocation company needs to explain how and why the home sale is allegedly causing the seller to lose relocation benefits, and exactly what benefits stand to be lost.

The seller became concerned enough as to put off showing the home to prospective buyers. This is very serious, and of great concern that any company could be possibly make the home seller lose money by threatening or otherwise causing the seller not show their home to buyers. The listing agent must take extra care to make sure this situation is handled properly for the seller client.

First of call, we want to make sure the seller doesn’t lose $17,490 to $39,750 on their real estate transaction while trying to gain what is commonly only $1,500 to $3,000 of relocation services. Those are the approximate amounts at stake by switching from the best home sale plan to a less effective idea in order to seek relocation services that most home sellers do not feel they need. It appears as though one home seller was being steered off-course, away from a highly successful home sale plan, toward a plan that is questionable, by a non-real estate expert, a completely unknown salesperson.

Relocation companies typically focus on their core competency of moving furniture. Most employers and home sellers do not employ a relocation company at all because the costs outweigh the benefits.

Listing agents need to cooperate with relocation companies even though the relocation company may have no interest or expertise in complying with real estate industry best practices, such as not interfering with broker-client relationships. Relocation professionals are not usually real estate agents, thus they have no ability and no requirement to represent the seller’s best interests regarding a home sale.

Real estate transactions are far more valuable and important than relocation services. The vast majority of home buyers do not use this kind of relocation service. Downtown loft and condo sellers usually obtain best results from a local area specialist who is obligated to look after the seller’s best interests with guarantees in writing. A successful home sale plan is a big deal to throw away. In fact, using out-of-area agents is one of the most common big mistakes in Downtown Los Angeles real estate.

Jeopardizing a home sale based on pushy, threatening sales techniques of a unknown relocation company is guaranteed to be a big mistake. Relocation companies are not real estate companies. Some relocation companies go as far as offering the seller an uncommon real estate transaction like a BVO with unknown tax implications, out-of-area broker referral or other inferior transaction. With these unorthodox home sale methods, the condo unit is likely sell for far less than the full market price. Instead of these sketchy methods, Downtown sellers particularly benefit from using a proven Downtown specialist who has a list of buyers, and a history of very successful sales in the neighborhood.

The listing agent called again and discussed compliance requirements with the relocation company, and provided additional information, including the date of the signed listing agreement. The relocation company confirmed by email that the company will not interfere with the home sale, confirming that they will not ask for additional requirements. But if they should need anything, the listing agent agreed to cooperate fully. The home seller will not lose relocation benefits.

If the seller is not yet ready to sell, then the listing agent should be 100% on board with taking as much time as necessary, otherwise the home seller should be sure to get all pertinent relocation benefits information in writing from the relocation company and employer.  Home sellers should not jeopardize a successful home sale plan all based on a verbal promise by an obscure salesperson.

The seller has the most successful possible plan for a home sale that will get the seller $17,490 to $39,750 more than average agents or inferior home sale options.  The listing agent reminded the home seller client to let other real estate professionals know that the seller has a listing agreement so that they may not push or hassle the seller.
