This is a cool home! A client of mine is considering submitting an offer here. What do you think of the ceilings?

One of the things I love most is how grateful people are for the high level of guidance, direction and assistance we provide. It feels good that new home owners will go out of their way to write a thoughtful review I love what I do! I love the people we can help! ...and I always love a good review... #realestate #tomferry #zillow

Now this is a view! I had the pleasure of showing this property a couple weeks ago. Off in the distance are the cliffs and Dana Point Harbor. #realestate #luxuryrealestate #reedteamrocks #views

There’s a lot of hype about a 2019 recession, and holding off on home ownership. The data would support otherwise. I trust the data more than the media hype, don’t you? . Homes are still increasing in price by 4.2% year over year. The 40 year running average is 4.5%. This suggests are strong / normal real estate market. .... Interest rates are low. Most people are getting 4.75%. The 40 year average is about 7.5%. We’ve got amazing rates right now. . Even if a recession would come... The norm is that home prices increase anyway... (last chart). . Who you work with matters. Get the data that will help you and your family successfully own a home, and successfully plan for your future. . With the data above, if nothing changes, a home that is $500K today will be roughly $2750/month on payments. That home next year will be about $3250/month. . Would savings $500/month be worth risking? That same price of waiting could get you a $600K house today.... . In 20 years, the above data would suggest that the $500K purchase today would appreciate in value up to about $1,150,000. (to calculate, I used 4% yearly appreciation. That is considered below the running 40 year average). . Would the purchase today be worth holding on to? Even if prices dropped 5%, and you buy today, you would still gain around $650K just by paying your mortgage. Would that be worth it? . #realestate #homeownership
