The fun part about real estate is that no experience is ever the same and there is always usually something you remember about a particular transaction. If some of you are allergic to cats like myself then this is a story you can relate too. When I show homes and there is a cat that lives inside, my super human cat senses which are itchy eyes, scratchy throat come alive. Well I do my best to hang tough and show my clients the house (and as fast as possible by the way) While we entered this house my cat senses alerted me that something wasn't right but as we were walking through the house I didn't see any cats. Maybe I ate a bad lunch and my senses were off I thought. So the last place in the house we walk in is the garage. Suddenly with my clients behind me I open the door step in and 7...

Should You Continue Showing Your Home If You Have An Offer?  ♪♫•*¨*•.¸SOLD¸.•*¨*•♫♪ You’ve got a good offer from a motivated Buyer on your Rancho Cucamonga house.  From all indications it looks like the Buyer is going to close. But there are a lot of things that can and sometimes do go wrong.  Remember the saying, 'It's Ain't Over 'til The Fat Lady Sings! ' That old adage certainly applies here . . . Don’t forget the Buyer has to go through their Contingency period. The Contingency period gives the Buyer 17 days (unless otherwise agreed to in writing) in which to do their inspections, approve all Disclosures and all other matters affecting the property.  If conditions exist that the Buyer does not accept, they can simply change their mind and now your house is back on the Rancho Cucamon...

Vintage Highland's is a great place to buy a home!  See the video tour below of the community.   As a Realtor and a 32 year resident of Rancho Cucamonga one of my favorite communites in the City of Rancho Cucamonga is Vintage Highland's which is located just North of the 210 fwy in between Milliken and Rochester. Living in Vintage Highland's you will have quick access to freeways, schools, shopping centers, gas stations, parks and restaurants.

One of the main reasons is because Vintage Highland's is the most affordable neighborhood North of the 210 freeway along with being a family friendly communi...

  Honor Our Veterans On Veterans Day  Veterans Day is the annual federal holiday that honors our military veterans that is usually observed on November 11. Veterans Day is not just another paid holiday to sleep in. Remember to Honor, Respect, and Thank our Veterans for their service to our country.  Remember those that gave the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms we enjoy. My first calls will be to my Father who fought in 2 wars and my Brother who is medically retired from serving in 1 followed by calls reaching out to touch several other relatives and friends who have served or who is currently serving our Country.  I want to honor our Veterans on Veterans Day and never let them forget how proud I am of them. How do you plan to honor our Veterans on Veterans Day this year?

    As in most cases many homeowners don't realize that there is a better alternative to walking away from their home and letting the bank foreclose. Some of the advantages of doing a short sale are staying in your home longer while saving money, bank giving you relocation assistance money, being able to buy again in 2-3 years and probably most important is that bank will not come after you for the deficiency. The 3 common questions from homeowners are "What is a short sale?" "What is the short sale process?" and "Do I qualify for a short sale?" Of course every situation and outcome is different but with the right real estate professional who understands the complexities of foreclosures and short sales, this process can be the most beneficial to a homeowner who can no longer make their ...

  Who Controls the Real Estate Prices in Rancho Cucamonga As Real Estate Agents we like to think we have some effect on the Rancho Cucamonga home pricing, but we realize home prices are determined largely by the Buyers, and to some degree, the Sellers.  It doesn’t matter how good an Agent is, or how much money they spend marketing the property, if Buyers feel like the sales price is too high, the house won’t sell!   No amount of skill or marketing on the Agents part will entice a Buyer to pay significantly more than what a property is truly worth. As a Seller, you definitely want an Agent that knows how to market and position your Rancho Cucamonga property.  However, finding a Rancho Cucamonga Listing Agent that knows how to effectively price in this market should be your #1 concern as ...

Now's The Perfect Time To Short Sale Your Rancho Cucamonga Home, Pt 2 Did you know that a lot of the laws that favor selling your Rancho Cucamonga home through a Short Sale will expire by December 31, 2012?   Today let's discuss a couple of Short Sale Tax Related Laws you should know about as a Rancho Cucamonga Homeowner. Short Sale Income Tax Relief from Federal Income Tax until 2012 The Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007 allows a taxpayer to exclude income from the discharge of debt on their principal residence. Debt reduced through loan modifications, Short Sales, as well as mortgage debt forgiven in connection with a Foreclosure, qualifies for this relief.  If the loans forgiven were loans that you used to purchase the home (purchase money loan) or loans used to build or i...

  Did you know that a lot of the laws that favor selling your Rancho Cucamonga home through a Short Sale will expire by December 31, 2012? Here are a couple of Short Sale Related Laws you should know about as a Rancho Cucamonga Homeowner. Senate Bill 931, states that lenders who have agreed to approve a Short Sale do not have the ability to obtain a deficiency judgment against the Seller after the Short Sale is completed. The law applies only to first mortgage loans secured by one to four residential units. Immediately following Senate Bill 931, Senate Bill 458 came along and extended the same protection to any secondary or junior loans (such as home equity lines of credit (heloc) or fixed secondary mortgages) involved in the transaction.  Meaning that after agreeing to the terms of the...
