How YOU Doin'?

Welcome to the world of Blogland for Santa Monica!

I hope to have this site as a reference point for Santa Monica residents who want to hear how the housing market is truly doing. It's a great platform to get feedback from an expert...me (a realtor specializing in Santa Monica and the West Side) in conjunction with statistics, as well as real buyer and seller feedback out there.

It can become a bit discouraging for buyers and sellers when all news points to Doom's Day in Real Estate. Sellers are worried about their values and buyers believe a list price is at least $100,000 overpriced. But the doomsday news does not reflect what's going on in Santa Monica. If you're waiting for property values to drop in Santa Monica, I suggest you look elsewhere.

Plus, with the new Stimulus Package moving forward with a target date of April 1st and ending December 31st, 2008...The Buyers are a comin'! Any of you sideliners out there...take your last sips of Gatorade and suit up, it's time to play!

Don't hold back your questions, and I won't hold back my answers. At the end of the day, when the timing and financing is there, it all magically happens.

This is a wonderful site and I will follow it to get all my updates on the market in this area. I own property in Santa Monica and am happy to have a place to go to see how my neighbors are doing. Thanks!
