Coast Village Realty & Loan

It's dangerous to predict the future. If you are an optimist, your view is already different than a pessimist. That said, after bumping the bottom, rates rose significantly. Home prices have gone both ways based on location. What next? Check in with your real estate/mortgage professionals. I have clients who submit the items we need, get to an approval and wait for their desired goal before committing. Rates are so sensitive to current events that more reduction is likely as we navigate dangerous waters. You may contact me anytime you wish to chat. I'll gladly lend an ear!

It's an interesting time for real estate and the future of lending. I'm seeing more attention to how agents get compensated and the possible end to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Let's face it, cities are fun, but they are (in many cases) getting less liveable. It is a fallacy to think that the Santa Barbara area is more expensive than LA or SF. It is not. I recommend that rather than wait for "someday" you explore choices. I left Santa Monica for Santa Barbara 32 years ago. One of the best things ever in my life. I can help with helping you find your new home and give you expert advice on financing. Or, take care of your purchase loan.
