JUST SOLD OFF-MARKET: Vacant Land on Sunset Rd. Joshua Tree, CA. 92252Every sale has  some background history...one of my repeat client knew that I had a niche market  '...The Land Expert...' He reached out to me a couple years ago and told me that he had a parcel of land in Joshua Tree, CA 92252. He asked if I could give him ideas what to do... I gave him a ball park value range and told him it will be a long sale.  I also mentioned to him that if he is willing to pay for an appraisal and spend about $500 he will get an accurate number. He laughed and sent me an email chain form a local Real Estate agent who was willing to offer him 10 per cent of what I suggested as a list price.  Then he immediately sent me an appraisal he paid for after he got the low ball offer. The appraiser's num... 02/12/2022

(As posted from my blog at http://joshuatreeagent.wordpress.com) Well summer is here, and it is hot and humid! Along with summer, at least the last couple of summers, comes a slow down in real estate sales for our local area. It seems like people don't like to trek around in 100 plus degree weather. But should you decide to brave the heat to go house shopping ... you could be rewarded with a great deal! As far as the June real estate activity ... as a whole ... wow, I'm sure some are glad it is over. In Joshua Tree, there were seven homes sold last month, compared to sixteen the year before. (A decline of 56%). Of those seven homes, two were my listings, and 4 of the 7 were bank owned properties. The average selling price for June 2007 was $223,406, while this June averaged $198,357 (a ... 07/15/2008

(this is from my blog at http://joshuatreeagent.wordpress.com/) It is impossible to not hear some news about the real estate market being in trouble. It's a nightly staple on the major news networks. The problem with most of these stories is their generic nature. Many potential buyers are just sitting on the fence (how many times have you heard that phrase?) waiting for the stars to align or for the bottom of the market. Timing the market is extremely difficult, and the people who nailed the top or bottom most likely just got lucky. But you can make an educated and smart purchase with the right information.   If you're buying for the right reasons, you plan on living in the property for a while, it is a long-term investment and you make a smart purchase (you get a good deal), then it is... 06/25/2008

This week has been great.  A friend of mine has been visiting and we took a trip out to Joshua Tree National Park.  I did not know how close it was to us and this was our first visit.  Joshua Tree is located about an 1 1/2 hours from Orange County.  The best time of year to go is in spring when the Joshua Trees are blooming but we still had a great time in September.  The weather was mild for this time of year...only 99 degrees!  That's still hot for me.  But as you can see, we still had a great time...   Two highlights of the trip were the Cholla Cactus Gardens.  They look like they are something out of a Dr. Seuss Book.             Another great place to stop is the Cottonwood Spring Oasis.  This is right near the south entrance of the park.  The pictures do not do it justice.  Imagin... 09/07/2007
