More than 100 viewers tuned in to see what’s really happening in Downtown Los Angeles as Corey Chambers and Brandi Price Hosted LIVE Periscope Webcast from an L.A. high-rise condo on January 17. They showed how to avoid the 5 biggest mistakes in Downtown real estate, and revealed how to make the most of one of the world’s hottest markets.
LOS ANGELES, CA (L.A. Loft Blog) January 10, 2016 — Corey Chambers, the real estate agent known for buying Downtown Los Angeles lofts for cash, will be broadcasting Downtown’s first ever real estate open house LIVE TV show. Viewers can tune in to watch at http://www.DowntownScope.com on Sunday, January 17 from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. The broadcast will be transmitted using Periscope and Twitter. “The show will share the latest on what the Downtown L.A. renaissance is all about,” Chambers said. “As a live TV show, viewers worldwide will get the chance to see what is really happening right now in the most exciting place on Earth.” The show will co-star actress Brandi Price. Chambers is doing the show because he believes that most real estate agents just do the ABC’s of real estate, and they don’t implement the latest technologies to their fullest. He noticed that a popular loft listed by another agent recently took more than 100 days to sell because the real estate agent Multiple Listing Service was the only significant marketing tool, which is a “notoriously lazy way to market real estate” according to Chambers.
In addition to the live open house TV show on Periscope, Chambers, who is a veteran computer and satellite systems specialist in the U.S. Air Force, publishes the L.A. Loft Blog, provides the largest number of unlisted lofts and condos for sale in Downtown, and offers the latest technology to buyers and sellers (at no cost to buyers) such as heat map software that instantly shows which homes have positive cash flows, which unlisted properties are likely to sell next, and which properties are in distress and are likely to sell for a bargain price.

As for agents to simply upload their seller clients property to the MLS and then throw a lockbox on the door, “This is total nonsense,” Chambers concluded. Don’t real estate agents get paid enough to do more for their clients? Chambers actually guarantees the sale of homes, and also guarantees in writing that home buyers will love their new home or he will buy it back. The seller and Corey must agree on price and time of possession. Sponsored by the L.A. Loft Blog, the upcoming TV show will dramatize this aggressive style. It will take place inside the 23rd floor of a Downtown highrise condominium with panoramic views of Downtown’s Financial District to the Hollywood sign. It’s not, however, merely a show and tell about a single home for sale. The show called “Downtown Scope” will also reveal how to avoid the 5 biggest mistakes in Downtown real estate, as well as tips on how to make the most of the hot Downtown L.A. market.

As the Chinese economy plummets, the U.S. starts off 2016 on the wrong foot as American stocks kick off 2016 with 400-point plunge. Now is the time to think about the economics of Downtown real estate and what that means for buying and selling Downtown properties.
Lofts For Sale In DTLA
We’ve experienced unusually quick growth of price values in Downtown Los Angeles over the past 4 years. The L.A. Loft Blog, the authority of Downtown real estate, was the first to help this process by discussing the huge gains that buyers would be receiving in return for their foresight. Homeowners, home buyers and the L.A. Loft Blog have prospered. Now that we are in nearly the reverse situation, many are concerned that home prices may drop in the near future. Will Downtown condo and loft values drop soon? We will continue to benefit by taking time to see future possibilities.
First of all, there is no reason to expect a quick decline of Downtown real estate prices any time soon. Prices usually drop the most sharply immediately after the public displays unsubstantiated confidence. China is the most excellent example of unsubstantiated confidence. Many Chinese falsely believed (and even some American financial journalists believed) that China’s economy could only improve and could not drop sharply because the “communist government controls would take action to prevent a steep decline”. This type of thinking is not only wrong, but also causes a huge bubble that will burst from any substantial catalyst. China is today getting its big recession that was destined to come. The L.A. Loft Blog reminds everyone that up and down cycles will always happen, and the long term trend for real estate is always upward.
The long term trend for Downtown real estate is up, way up! The L.A. Loft Blog is in the enviable position of seeing and hearing what home buyers and sellers are thinking and doing every day. A large percentage of would-be homebuyers have remained cautious due to the home value drops of 2007-2010. Prospective home buyers have largely remained cautious through the upswing from 2011 to today. In the past year, Downtown home values increased another 8%. This caution, combined with rapid growth and rennaisance of Downtown, has created a very positive stability in Downtown home prices.
Downtown Los Angeles has many advantages over other American neighborhoods. DTLA has received billions of dollars of improvements over the the past few years in the form of new Metro transportation, new residences, new shops, restaurants, hotels, entertainment and updated office buildings. Downtown was among the last neighborhoods to go down in value in 2009, and was then among the first American neighborhoods to quickly start rapidly gaining value just a couple years later. In fact, Downtown is so different from the rest of the country, that listening to the mainstream news has proven to be counterproductive to taking advantage of Downtown real estate. The national news and even the local news did not report promptly on the superior real estate performance of Downtown L.A. We can always count on the government and mainstream media to let us down when it comes to understanding the Downtown Los Angeles real estate market. Even the Downtown News failed to fully communicate the economic turnaround that was already happening for DTLA at the beginning of 2012.
View from Bartlet Loft Window
Downtown is today receiving a tremendous amount of positive physical pressure for upward home prices due to its remarkable urban turn-around, billions of dollars of new investments and infrastructure, massive influx of professionals and wealthy residents, and then add the trillions of dollars of federal quantitative easing to the mix. Because we still have a healthy amount of pessimism and caution, the pressure on Downtown home prices remains balanced and upward.
After several years of rapid growth, and while things are so rosy for Downtown, now is precisely the time to start thinking about and to begin to prepare for the next big downturn in home values. We are unlikely to have a huge drop in Downtown prices for decades, but we can have softening at any time. Potential home buyers should be moderate and conservative in purchasing what they can afford, and potential home sellers should consider selling in the next few years while prices are up. An 8% price increase pressure seems to be sticking. Because Downtown has above average prospects for growth, DTLA homeowners should only be selling today if they need the money, if they need to move or if they have other excellent prospects for investing their money. All Downtown homeowners should keep on top of the real value of their home with a free online home evaluation.
