Fullerton Real Estate - updates on home inspection. Now more than ever -- home inspections are critical and even profitable.  In the real estate market of today, the initial investment in the home inspection can have a terrific payback.  Investing say $400.00 in a up front inspection can yield avoidance of thousands of dollars of unexpected repair costs in the near future, as well as providing substantial evidence  to help negotiate repair compensation in the initial sales closing costs.  Recently we have seen buyers avoid huge sewer drainage repair costs by asking for repairs right after the formal inspection.  This is especially true in the older homes or the distressed properties.  Even the banks on short sales are starting to accept the results of inspections as grounds for addition... 07/02/2012

New GE BNSF Dash9 4,400HP Railroad days in Fullerton 2012 May 5 & 6 was a great event. It all started off with the Pancake breakfast at 8:00 sharp hosted by the Boy Scouts troup #292. Encouraged by the scout leaders they have an opportunity to increase their people skills by interact with the public. I gave my money to the young Scout then another young chap relayed "one pancake Breakfast" to his counter part. Being still early I ventured towards the brand new BNSF GE Dash 9 (see video) engine that was on the side track humming away. It was only 8:50am so I waited in a short line ready for my experience of walking along the catwalk and through this 4,400 horse power 12 cylinder monster of an engine. I was thinking quietly about Warren Buffet how he must know something that we don't know... 05/08/2012

Home inspections are so critical - most everyone needs to have one prior to closing on a real estate purchase.  And not all inspectors are the same -- make sure you have a seasoned veteran doing the inspection -- and make sure you get a written report with lots of pictures.  this report can be well worth the money just in negotiating with the Seller for repairs.  I always include a copy of the report to the listing agent and ask them to forward it to the owner.  Even the "flippers" like to have the report -- so they can get the workers they used to go back and do it right.  Every nickle of the report cost is well worth it.

Fullerton CA Real Estate Market Report For The Month Of April 2012   ACTIVE REAL ESTATE LISTINGS DROP AGAIN IN FULLERTON CA The Fullerton real estate market continued to show signs of improvement and stabilization in April, as the number of active real estate listings in Fullerton dropped and the number of pending and closed real estate sales in Fullerton increased month over month. While the changes haven't been as drastic as those seen in other Orange County and Riverside County communities, it is a welcome shift  from the over abundance of property for sale in Fullerton. In fact, the number of available real estate listings in Fullerton is quite low, especially for such a vast city, leaving potential home buyers with few options to choose from.
