L.A. real estate news and insights.
When I was 12, I waited outside Engelbert Humperdinck's dressing room after one of his shows in hopes of getting his autograph for my mom. She was a big fan! When he emerged, he had a whisky in one hand, a cigar in the other, and was draped in women. Luckily, I got the autograph before the party got out of hand!

Imagine Dragons singer Dan Reynolds buys a Mid-Century Modern home in Los Feliz.
Asking price: $6,250,000

The rush is on to see a house as soon as it’s listed. But after the first five days of listing a home, showings drop considerably, according to a new analysis of June home showing data from ShowingTime, a showing management and tech firm for residential real estate.
ShowingTime’s June analysis of more than 6 million properties nationwide revealed a significant slowdown in home showing traffic compared with more recent months. That may be due to more listings coming on to the market: New listings in June rose 5.5% year over year and are up 10.9% over the prior month, according to a new report from realtor.com®.
Still, the first five days of listings are “hyperactive with double-digit showings and offers submitted quickly,” according to ShowingTime.
New Los Angeles listings averaged more than 30 showings in the first five days, according to the ShowingTime index.

Do this strategy if your lender runs your credit and says your credit score is too low to get a home loan.
All I need is a 15 minute sit down meeting with your friend to show them what I do to sell homes.
I guarantee they have NEVER seen a home selling marketing strategy like mine.

If you are getting ready to sell your property, you should consider staging your home.
That is when a home stager comes in and furnishes your house with modern, new, clean furniture. It makes your home look like a model home.
The problem with staging is that it costs money. The minimum cost will be around $3k.
If you refuse to do that, you should consider virtual staging.
This is where you take a picture of an empty room in your house, then a graphic designer edits the picture and ads computer-generated furniture.
In most cases, your marketing pictures will end up looking great.
You will definitely get a lot of attention to your online listing and will bring people in to see your home.
The problem arises when the buyer shows up to tour the home.
They came to see a beautiful model looking home and they end up taking a tour of a bunch of empty rooms.
This is not the ideal situation to put a buyer in.
But, virtually staged photos are better than showing a vacant room or a room filled with furniture from the 1980's.
