New Lofts Buying Tips:

This weekend several buyers are viewing New Loft Properties.  As the new year begins to unfold, more and more buyers are making appointments and getting a head start on touring the downtown lofts that are available.  We love to show the new lofts and see the excitement in buyers eyes.

When we represent new buyers, we have several helpful recommendations so they can be prepared for successful bids and and avoid stress.  Usually buyers get the following information in a email as they start to tour lofts, today we wanted to share this knowledge.

IMPORTANT HOME BUYING TIPS:

20130921_114001_HDRThe number one tip is you must bring a downtown loft specialist to your very first viewing.     Sellers often require it and you need an agent representing your interests.

Our free home buyer consultation is your first step to a successful home purchase.  Because we specialize in Lofts, we can tell you what to expect, both the good and the bad.  While being enthusiastic and energized is a good thing, and buyers may not want to hear bad news for fear of loosing enthusiasm, we believe that understanding fully what is going to happen in a purchase will fight against buyers remorse and help a person be fully satisfied with a purchase of new home.

Place your highest and best offer on the very first day of a listing.  Prices and terms are negotiable.  You may ask the seller to pay some of your expenses such as closing costs.  If you ask for too much, you may lose to another offer.  Waiting to see how other buyers act in the market is a mistake it often leads to missing the opportunity to purchase the loft that you want the most.

Most purchases entail delays and unexpected miscellaneous expenses.  Some transactionsfail after incurring expenses for the prospective buyer.  Some borrowers are unable to obtain financing.   By experience of working with lenders, it pays to work with lenders that are experienced in lending that is specifically designed for lofts.  While we have a preferred lender and would highly recommend them, if you have a lender there are several questions you should be asking them.  When you meet with us for a free consultation we can help you prepare questions for you lender.

  • Delays are common.  Be sure to allow plenty of extra time for moving, and extra money for unanticipated costs.
  • Ensure that the seller has installed a carbon monoxide detector before the inspections.
  • HOA move in fee, move out fee and HOA move in security deposit are often required; ask HOA for details.  A move in appointment and information form is required by most HOAs. 
  • Electricity may be turned off before or right after your purchase.  Contact the HOA well in advance to make move in arrangements.
  • Call DWP to turn on your electricity ladwp.com 800-dial-dwp

Lofty Goals: Purchasing a NEW LOFT in Downtown Los Angeles!

Loft pic2013 was a landmark year in the loft real estate market.  A huge number of lofts were purchased at the first of the year and people sought to improve their lives by moving into lofts in Downtown Los Angles.  This race to the loft market is easily understandable given the amazingly beautiful conversions that are being sold.

Investing in real estate, wisely, is a great way to improve your financial life.  Equity opens up excitement in a person’s life-style, it gives a reason to work harder to afford a life that they chose.  Beautiful architecture, lively neighborhoods, and being close to the business center of the west coast can provide a life-style like no other in the western US.  Buying lofts are a way to live the way you chose, but also to invest in real estate in a recovering market!

Loft goals are obtainable and they are a great way to make plans and reach goals.  Commonly people make plans to improve their physical and mental well-being, improve their career and finances, and getting rid of old bad habits.

Thinking positively about what we can do to laugh more often, enjoy life more, and live a life a little closer to the life we want to live can bring great results!

Sometimes smaller goals in life only take a certain amount of will-power.  For example, going to the gym, eating healthier, enrolling in that class you always wanted to take.  While larger resolutions may seem harder to obtain, they do come with a bigger reward.  With some resolutions we seek to change our entire lives.  Maybe, move to a new town, travel to that hard-to-get-to tropical island, our even getting married?  With a little planning even the biggest goals are obtainable.

If you have been thinking about investing in real estate, Downtown Los Angeles will be sure to excite you.  Visiting lofts and seeing the neighborhoods they set in is exhilarating.  This has been, and continues to be an Era of warehouse and factory conversions in Downtown Los Angeles.

Because of the competitive market for lofts, there has been a push to specialize in helping buyers to purchase these conversions.  As it is now, often developers work with only small handful of VIP agents prior to releasing their buildings to the general market.

Hundreds of lofts are getting ready to be put on the market in January 2014.  But right now we are among the few who have created relationships with loft developers and have VIP status.  Meaning, with us you can tour lofts before they are put on the market, with us you can make an offer before the general real estate market.

Let us help you map out the loft world to you.  We have experience in specialized needs, laws, financing that comes with purchasing a Downtown Los Angeles Loft.

Whatever your lofty goal is, we wish you success and happiness!
