☠️Beware the Mello-Roos tax☠️
Episode 16 of The #AskDanielLosAngeles Show
On this episode, I answer the following 4 real estate questions:
1) I noticed some listings say there is a Mello-Roos tax. What's that?
2) On some real estate websites there are listings that get tagged as a "hot home". How can I get my property to show up as a "hot home"?
3) I'm thinking about selling my condo soon. What are some of the must have's for a buyer?
4) I got a voicemail from someone saying that they want to buy my house for top dollar. Is this a scam?

How do I tell the buyer of my home about registered sex offenders in my neighborhood?
Sellers! Megan's law needs to be disclosed to your buyers!
And if you know of any specific sex offenders in your neighborhood, your better off disclosing that info too.
All home buyers should know about Megan's law
California's Megan's Law was enacted in 1996.
.
It mandates the California Department of Justice to notify the public about specified registered sex offenders.
.
Megan’s Law also authorizes local law enforcement agencies to notify the public about sex offender registrants found to be posing a risk to public safety.
.
Megan's Law is named after seven-year-old Megan Kanka, who was raped and killed by a known child molester who had moved across the street from the family without their knowledge.
.
In the wake of that tragedy, the Kankas sought to have local communities warned about sex offenders in the area.
.
All states in the U.S. now have some form of Megan's Law.
.
When buying a home, the seller needs to disclose to you the above info and tell you the website to go to in order to look up the neighborhoods sex offenders.
.

If you don't have a creative mind, hire an interior home designer
Figuring out the layout and materials used for a beautifully designed kitchen is hard... really hard!
.
A lot of people don't have the vision to put it together.
.
But thats OK, thats what interior designers are for.
.
I know it will cost money, but interior designers can save you a lot of time and stress.
.
I could not have done my kitchen remodel without the help of a designer.

What are the ways a seller can back out of a real estate deal in Los Angeles
If the buyer is not releasing one of their purchase contingencies, your agent has to send the buyer a notice to perform.
.
If the buyer still does not respond to your notice, have your agent send a escrow cancellation form.
.
At that point, the buyer either responds or you have to cancel escrow and find another buyer.

This is why these Burbank homes turned into "Expired Listings"
In order to succeed, we have to look at the listings that failed.
Only 1 out of these 34 expired listings had a marketing video.
If the homeowner had a video for their home, they may have brought more attention to their listing and eventually sell... maybe not... but at least the homeowner could say they tried as hard as possible.
