As we enter into the fall season of giving and thanks, the shift in the real estate market has people wondering what the future holds. There is still a good amount of interest in desirable homes that are priced accordingly as we have just seen with one of our recent listings. We had a very busy open house and multiple offers over the list price for a remodeled home in a beach community. As sellers adjust their expectations, well-priced homes are still selling quickly. There are more homes for sale, less competition, and fewer homes selling above asking price which is creating a more favorable environment for buyers. Despite elevated mortgage interest rates, this is a welcome change for buyers who had previously been outbid by such a competitive real estate market. If you are considering selling, now more than ever is the best time to let us help prepare your home for sale using our Compass Concierge Program in order to maximize your profit. If you are considering buying a home, we have helped many buyers make their dreams a reality in this market and we can help you create a winning strategy too. Contact us to discuss your unique buying or selling situation in this changing market. Read on for local events in November, real estate in the news, and discover lifestyle tips curated just for you! |

We are so happy to get this beautiful custom home in escrow for our sellers. They put so much effort into remodeling their home and even with the slow down in the market, we had a very busy open house and multiple offers. This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home is just blocks to the ocean with extensive homeowner upgrades including solar. |

| | | | 4414 Alhambra Street Buyers: "We started working with Layne during the peak craziness of the real estate market. Although we have bought and sold a few properties, this market was unlike anything we had ever experienced. It was as if we were first time home buyers all over again. All the rules had changed. I don’t think we could have hung on except for his confidence that we would find something. He was very considerate of our time. His candid approach to evaluating a property’s suitability was refreshing and entertaining during what can be a stressful experience. Ultimately Layne found us the right property and he was able to negotiate a great deal and guide us through a smooth escrow. Layne continues to be a resource for us sending great tradespeople our way. His follow through is exceptional and attention to detail bar none. Concern for the client’s best interest and satisfaction tie for his number one priority. Layne has your back. So happy he was our agent and you will be too!" |
