Downtown Los Angeles Lofts: Is L.A. loft gentrification ethnic cleansing? There is a solution to the homeless problem.

Skid Row homeless poverty and blight in the center of Downtown Los Angeles

Posted on August 17, 2012 by LA Loft Blog

Some have recently questioned whether Downtown Los Angeles is headed in the right direction regarding racial diversity. My real estate team and I are working to make sure that Downtown is getting more diverse. We do not believe that a diverse Downtown needs more poor and homeless. It needs fewer. We believe that ending up with fewer homeless and poor is a good thing and the right thing. If more poor are truly being helped effectively, then they will raise themselves up and no long be as poor. I’ve seen myself and my family members of all races and creeds turn their lives from poor to rich through hard work and determination, along with a little bit of love, respect and freedom to choose one’s own destiny.
LOFTS FOR SALE IN DOWNTOWN | LOFTS FOR LEASE IN DOWNTOWN | CONTACT USAs a Realtor(R) real estate agent in Downtown Los Angeles, I work hard to promote equality and opportunity for everyone in Downtown housing. Nevertheless, lofts in Downtown are not the cheapest residential real estate to buy or rent. Lofts often tend to appeal to those demographics that have average or above average income and resources. Lofts are a unique and different way of living and working that seem to have greater appeal to or access by people of means. While I don’t believe in race, as all humans are of African descent, I cannot help notice that some of the loft buildings are not as diverse as they perhaps should be in Downtown Los Angeles. I thank God for giving me close family members who are very racially diverse. I want Downtown to be equally blessed.

The LA Weekly blog recently questioned the ethics and validity of the loft-based gentrification of Downtown. It states that poor blacks have moved out as rich whites have moved in? Is it racial cleansing?

http://blogs.laweekly.com/informer/2012/05/occupy_central_city_association_angeles_skid_row_protest.php

Following the logic of the LA Weekly blog article, we would have to ask another question. In the 1950s, 60s and 70s, were middle class and wealthy caucasians displaced by African Americans and Hispanics in downtown and south central Los Angeles? If so, was it racial cleansing?

Corey Chambers supports charity benefit in Skid Row Downtown Los Angeles

Having observed the white, black, Hispanic and Asian members of my own family pull themselves up by hard work and determination, I must conclude that each individual is best suited to help themselves, their family, and community in that order. The government is inherently too distant to be very good athelping individuals.

The best help the government can provide is to get out of the way and let people help themselves and help others in the way that keeps proving to work best – free enterprise.

The team at Loft Living L.A. has been helping the poor and homeless in Downtown regularly for more than 10 years.

Skid Row is currently a place where families feel unwelcome and unsafe. That is not fair for families, residents and businesses who support Downtown. It is time to turn Skid Row into what it should be. It is ultimately not fair to the homeless to provide half-way support and services. We need to turn their lives around while turning Skid Row around that the same time. It it time to do it now. It is time to step up and to provide the funding necessary to create more homes, jobs, training and services, and to turn the blighted Central City East “Skid Row” into a beautiful neighborhood that is powerfully uplifting for the local residents.

Southern California Real Estate Prices Up Reports Los Angeles Times

Posted on July 25, 2012 by LA Loft Blog

The L.A. Loft blog reported last year that real estate prices were going up in Downtown Los Angeles. Along with other sought after areas such as West Los Angeles and beach areas like Malibu, Downtown was among the first to see home prices rise. Other cities are catching on. And now the real estate recovery is official. Read the Los Angeles Times article

The Wall Street Journal NewsHub reported that billionaire Warren Buffet is now investing big in residential real estate.

L.A. Loft blog readers should note that reduced inventory comes with higher prices. Selection has been dropping, and competition among other buyers is fierce for the best properties. The best properties in Downtown are often receiving 5 to 20 offers in a matter of days, and the most popular lofts and condos are beginning to sell for substantially more than the asking price in many cases.

Finding, financing, negotiating and closing on a Downtown loft can be much more difficult than a traditional home. Buyers must use a Downtown specialist Realtor(R) to get the best chance of success when seeking a Downtown loft or condo.

Real Estate Prices Up in Downtown Los Angeles – Lofts, Condos for Sale and Rentals Show Lower Inventory and Higher Values

Posted on June 27, 2012 by LA Loft Blog

Home Prices Go Up as the Number of Available Downtown Properties Plummets

The numbers are just now beginning to show what Loft Living L.A. Realtors(R) have been witnessing for nearly a year. The latest real estate numbers fresh off of the MLS show reduced inventory, higher prices and faster sales. Last August, Loft Living Los Angeles announced that we were already seeing many signs of a market turnaround in Downtown. Now the numbers are in to support the improving Downtown real estate market that we have been seeing for the past ten months. Compare numbers from this past three months to the same period in the prior year.

Real Estate Prices Rise in Downtown Los Angeles

Demand is up, while housing inventory is down. The number of properties available to purchase has shrunk from 139 to 125. Properties are selling much faster. The number of days on the market has shrunk from 85 to 55, more like around 5 days for the best properties. The low end price has risen from $96,600 to $107,500, while there are now very few properties remaining under $250,000. The high end price has risen from $1,966,300 to $7,250,000. It is now officially a seller’s market as the average selling price has increased from 95.44% to 112.50% of the listed price. The market analysis reports are below.

What Loft Living real estate agents have witnessed personally is much more dramatic than these numbers because we deal with the highest quality properties in Downtown. We have seen the number of purchases grow dramatically over the past few months. And we have even more closing in the next few months.

Posted on June 3, 2012 by LA Loft Blog

Loft Living L.A. is pleased to announce that twenty-one units are near completion of a New York style live/work loft building in Downtown Los Angeles.

At least one Loft Living client has submitted an offer on a unit with private outdoor space. The buyer is likely to get first dibs on a loft with big windows and a large patio.

A short walk to the hip, social pubs of the Arts District and culinary delights of Little Tokyo promenades, units in the six-story building will range from around 630 to 2,200 square feet. Many will have 2-bathrooms and balcony or patio. Several come with 2-car tandem parking spaces. The layouts are among the most thoughtful and well balanced, with ceilings ten to eleven feet high, lofty openness, big windows and natural light, closets and just the right amount of separation of the bedroom areas. Some of penthouses are 2-story with large terraces. The rooftop is equipped with a large hot tub spa, lounge area and barbeque with outdoor kitchen.

A second phase of the project is in the planning stage. All buildings have various issues that buyers need to know about. A knowledgeable Downtown loft specialist can share the pros and cons of this building so that a potential buyer will have the best chance of making a happy purchase decision and great investment.

Buying a Loft in Downtown Los Angeles – Short Sale, Resale, New Development or Foreclosure?

Posted on April 19, 2012 by LA Loft Blog

Short Sale, Resale, New Development and Foreclosure

Short Sales, Foreclosures, New Developments and Resales -Lofts for Sale in Downtown Los Angeles –

Downtown Los Angeles offers four common types of sales, each with its own set of benefits and drawbacks. They each require different tactics and strategies, and are appropriate for different types of buyers. A short sale, for instance, is most appropriate for investors because of its lengthy transaction period, and the need to place offers on many properties, without getting attached to any particular property. Standard sales include resale of used properties, and sale of new developments. Perhaps the most desirable for the buyer (and the most rare) is the foreclosure, which often provides for a quick transaction.

Short Sales, Foreclosures, New Developments and Resales

A short sale is not short. It usually takes the longest period of time from placing an offer to closing escrow, usually more than three months. Some short sales by Bank of American have recently closed in just 2-3 months. The results of most offers on short sales is nothing. An offer is placed, and there is no response from the seller. Sometimes the seller’s agent does not even acknowledge receipt of the offer. It the bidder is lucky to receive an affirmative response from the seller, it means that the bidder, if lucky, might have a 50% chance to buy the property. The seller will submit the offer to the bank, then wait patiently for a month or two before the bank begins to consider the offer. The counter offer usually comes months later. What usually happens, unfortunately, is that the buyer has a already moved on by the time the bank has come back with a counter offer. The highest back-up offer often has a better chance of making the purchase than the original bidder.

Standard sales fall into two categories: new development and resale. A new development often offers a relatively fast transaction, easy purchase with a sales office (bring an agent with you on your first visit, or you may not have an expert to look after your best interests). Resale of used properties can also offer a fairly quick and easy transaction.

Each type of sale requires a different strategy for placing offers and negotiating the best price and terms. For Downtown lofts, it is very important to use a Downtown loft specialist who knows the issues good and bad for each building. Those who use an agent from another area almost certainly face extra delays, more costs. A Downtown specialist Realtor(R) more often than not makes the difference between a failed transaction and a successful Downtown home purchase.

Coming Soon — Expensive Lofts Only. Lofts Under $250,000 must be purchased now.

Posted on March 14, 2012 by LA Loft Blog

Due to the changing market, prospective buyers must be prepared to start paying higher prices. Prices are rising. Inventory is low in Downtown, while the number of serious buyers is increasing. Beginning the 2nd half of 2012, the Loft Living L.A. team may no longer be able to help buyers who need to purchase properties under $250,000 because there will few if any quality properties in that price range.

If you plan to purchase a loft or condo in or around Downtown for less than $250,000, you must make your purchase now. By 2013, we expect the minimum price for quality Downtown lofts to be closer to $300,000.

MILLS ACT PROPERTY TAX SAVINGS ON HISTORIC BUILDINGS IN DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES

Posted on March 8, 2012 by LA Loft Blog

Some Mills Act buildings in Downtown L.A. offer a great rooftop along with potential tax savings

The Mills Act offers potential savings on county property tax to owners of condominium units in qualified historic buildings in Downtown Los Angeles. We have not been able to obtain much hard data on the program, just rumors and 2nd hand information. We recently have learned that the savings could be much less than the 30% savings that we heard earlier. In fact, some could even end up owing more tax than without the Mills Act. Overall, however, the Mills Act seems to be performing, and we have heard that the savings will be higher when the property values go back up again. The savings is apparently based complex formula (which we have never seen) on the commercial rental value of the properties. The Mills Act is only on certain old buildings that have not made significant changes to the external appearance, such as windows.

Higgins is among the list of Mills Act historic buildings in Downtown L.A.

Here is the only article that I have seen on the Mills Act recently. We are making no representations on this info, simply passing it on. Do your own research to confirm everything:

Do you own a great historic building in Los Angeles? Is your property an existing City of Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument or a contributing structure in a designated Historic Preservation Overlay Zone? Are you interested in a financial incentive that can help you rehabilitate, restore and maintain your building? The City of Los Angeles can help.

The Mills Act Historical Property Contract Program allows qualifying owners to receive a potential property tax reduction and use the savings to help rehabilitate, restore and maintain their buildings. The Mills Act is the single most important economic incentive program in California for the restoration and preservation of historic buildings by private property owners. Enacted in 1972, the Mills Act legislation grants participating local governments (cities and counties) authority to enter into contracts with owners of qualified historic properties who actively participate in the restoration and maintenance of their properties to receive property tax relief. The City of Los Angeles adopted local Mills Act legislation in 1996. Since then, over 600 properties have benefited from the program.

Downtown Los Angeles is home to many historic buildings qualified for the Mills Act

Benefits of the Program

A formal agreement, generally known as a Mills Act or Historical Property Contract, is executed between the City of Los Angeles and the property owner for a revolving ten-year term. Contracts are automatically renewed each year so that the term of the contract always extends for ten years. Property owners agree to restore, maintain, and protect the property in accordance with specific historic preservation standards and conditions identified in the contract. Periodic inspections by City and County officials ensure proper maintenance of the property. The City may impose penalties for breach of contract or failure to protect the historic property. The contract is transferred to new owners if the property is sold, and is binding to all successive owners.

Benefits to Owners

Owners of qualified historic properties may apply for the program if they pledge to rehabilitate and maintain the historical and architectural character of their properties for the life of the Contract. The Mills Act program is especially beneficial for recent buyers of historic properties and for current owners of historic buildings who have made major improvements to their properties.

Mills Act participants may realize substantial property tax savings each year for recently improved or purchased older properties because valuations of Mills Act properties are determined by an Income Approach to Value rather than by the standard Market approach to determining appraised value. The Income Approach, divided by a capitalization rate, determines the assessed value of the property. In general, the income potential for an owner-occupied residential property is calculated by examining comparable rents for similar properties in the area, while the income amount on a commercial property is based on actual rent received. Because rental values vary from area to area, actual property savings may vary. In addition, as County Assessors are required to assess all property annually, Mills Act properties may realize slight increases in property taxes each year.

Qualified Historic Property

A qualified historic property in the City of Los Angeles is a property listed as a locally-designated Historic-Cultural Monument or Contributing Property to an approved Historic Preservation Overlay Zone. Additionally, single-family residences (with a property tax value assessment of not more than $1,500,000) and income producing multi-family/commercial/industrial properties (with a property tax value assessment of not more than $3,000,000) are eligible to apply. Property values in excess of these limits may apply for an exemption if they meet certain criteria.

Because the City’s Mills Act program is now nearing the City Council imposed $1 million cap on annual lost revenues, the City will only be accepting applications for properties that need significant rehabilitation or restoration work. The work needed to rehabilitate or restore the property shall be pending or not completed. Applications will be prioritized based on how the Mills Act will be used to assist the viability of the project.

Properties seeking an Exemption from the Valuation Limits of $1.5 million for Single-Family Residences and $3 million for Multi-family/Commercial Properties are required to prepare a Historic Structure Report (HSR). The report shall follow the methodology outlined in Preservation Brief 43 – The Preparation and Use of Historic Structures Reports published by the National Park Service (seehttp://www.nps.gov/history/hps/TPS/briefs/brief43.htm). The HSR is used to substantiate the exceptional circumstances that warrant granting the exemption.

LOFTS DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES FOR SALE – Market Heats Up, Prepares to Skyrocket

Posted on February 26, 2012 by LA Loft Blog

downtown-la-lofts-spring-street-3rd

After several years of falling prices in Downtown real estate, the agents at Loft Living L.A. began to notice some leveling in 2010, and then a few increases in the beginning of 2011. By June of 2011, most prices were either level or increasing. For a nice luxury condo in Bunker Hill, a buyer spent about $60,000 more than it was purchased for less than a year before.

Downtown never did get very many foreclosures. Most Downtown agents now agree that the long spell of falling prices is over in Downtown. Evan Fujii of Wilshire Metro Realty calls it “stabilized,” while Corey Chambers calls it “white hot!”

Lofts in Downtown Los Angeles are the best investment

“Now most of the bargain hunters who put in offers at or below the comps are being outbid,” says Downtown specialist Realtor® Corey Chambers. ”Only the properties outside of Downtown offer the comfort of allowing the placement of a low offer while expecting a purchase to likely occur. In most parts of Downtown, an offer must be $20,000 to $80,000 above the comps in order to win a purchase.” Most desirable lofts are receiving 3 to 10 offers within just a few days of a new listing. Just this week, one hopeful buyer offered a whopping $100,000 above the asking price, hoping for a sure thing. The huge offer was outbid by an even more aggressive offer.

Agents Corey Chambers, Drew Panico Discuss Downtown Real Estate Boom

One thing is for sure. It is looking more and more like the next real estate boom has already begun in Downtown. With the improving economy, bustling Downtown renaissance, and with the shrinking inventory of residential properties, Downtown condo and live/work loft prices are sure to keep trucking. They could be among the best and smartest investments of all. With prices at or near the bottom, and with the record low interest rates, buyers simply cannot go wrong in today’s market turn-around.
