East Whittier NeighborhoodsEast WhittierWhile most people consider Gunn Avenue to be the western border for East Whittier, the Whittwood neighborhood has such a strong presence that it overshadows the East Whittier moniker, and is almost an island in the middle of East Whittier.  Indeed, East Whittier Middle School is actually just west of Gunn.  East Whittier City School DistrictThis East Whittier City School District boundaries are shown below.  Does this map definitively show the true East Whittier boundaries?  Absolutely not!  This map also has an error, where it shows East La Mirada between Santa Gertrudes and 1st Avenue; it is actually Unincorporated East Whittier.  You’ll also notice that the district map includes South Whittier, Murphy Ranch, Michigan Park, Friendly Hills, Mar ...

Now is the Best Time to Sell a Whittier House Pt 2 - Low Interest Equals More Buyers Lower interest rates reduce the cost of buying a home by resulting in a lower monthly payment for home buyers.  One of the biggest factors for buyers when deciding which home to buy is how much their monthly payment will be.  It must be affordable, according to what they can budget every month toward that housing payment.Why does this matter to home sellers?Let’s look at the numbers for a home in Whittier with a principle loan amount of $340,000.  Today’s national average interest rates from Freddie Mac for a 30-year mortgage are 3.55%.  Plugging in the numbers on the Loan Calculator on my website results in a monthly payment (not including taxes or insurance) of:$1,536.26 We all know that interest rate...

Why is now the best time in years to buy a home in Whittier?  Two words: Interest Rates.  Interest rates are at record lows, making it possible for home buyers to buy more of a home than they could in many years.Interest rates will not remain at these low rates forever.  The chart shows how unprecedented today’s interest rates are.  They have never been lower.  What goes down must go up!  And, when rates do go up, fewer buyers will be able to afford the homes they can afford with today’s low interest rates.Buyers are out looking for homes now!  For any home in decent condition, it is a battle for home buyers to get the home they want.  It’s a Bidding War!Inventory is the lowest I have ever seen, with only 210 Single Family Residences for sale in the City of Whittier.Whittier is experien...
