While conducting the open house in Castaic California at 30516 Appalachian Drive, I was honored to meet Greg Wolf, he is a Real Estate Agent with Realty Executives in Santa Clarita Valley.  He came into my open house and asked intelligent questions and gave me some positive feedback to give my seller.  What was even more impressive and worthy of comment, is that he was doing what I routinely do, previewing a property.  There might be something that my open house, or the model of home that I have listed, has that is different than others in the tract.  Upgrades that are not the run of the mill as compared with other properties in the vicinity or various builder options that had been taken advantage of when it was "new construction".

Also, with the multitude of other listings in the area for sale, it is nice working with an agent that is going to deal with you and your buyers straight.

He was very kind and had a gentle approach.  I will be looking forward to doing deals with Greg in the future and I wish him the best!

Thanks Greg! - CONNOR with HONOR

p.s. he also seems to be a fan of Real Estate Shows which is a Big Plus in my Book!!!

Real Estate in Castaic California is able to be viewed from the comfort of your own home or at least from a computer that is nearby without you having to jump through a bunch of hoops.  I am continuing my quest to bring everyone that wants FREE and NO-Obligation Real Estate news, information, Properties for sale, and as much other Real Estate Related Stuff as you desire, without commitment and without me wanting to sell you something.  

Here is the deal and a glimpse into my thought process, if I work hard to show you all of the facts and let you make up your mind for yourself without attempting to "close" you, then I will have earned your business for life.  I also have done something else that is a bit uncommon for an industry based on commission - I was honest.  Hold on a second Connor, isn’t that everyone’s job, to provide you with the facts and be honest?  

Absolutely - It is getting them to do that part of their job that is the hard part!  This market has been better, this is easy to see.  There were those that were made as the result of the past 4 years.  But this is the thinning of the flock if you will.  We are continuing to push forward as we did before telling folks factual information and letting them make their own decisions.  But if they are about to go off a cliff with their decision, you can be sure we will give them the help they need so they will not fall off.

So, what we have done to keep the commitment I made almost 10 years ago is that I am continuing to get you the best information about what the market is not, what it was and what it is projected to become.  I have also gotten together Virtual Gateways that are populated with all of the Real Estate listings that are for sale no matter by what office or what Realtor.  You will find some specific links for Bank Owned, Foreclosures and other Distressed Properties below.  

This particular engine is for Real Estate for Sale in Castaic.  So please enjoy the data and this system updates as the Multiple Listing Service is updated.  So that means it updates immediately as soon as the Agent in question presses the enter key.  No lag time with Huge Servers that cannot pull data constantly due to the logistical issues that are created by that demand i.e. (Realtor.com).

We also have put together lists of foreclosures and other distressed properties that have their origination from other Boards of Reators that we have gone out and become full members of to expand our base and serve our clients better - So click here for that page and those properties.

If you are one of those that wants to venture by moonlight and do it yourself, no worries I have an unlocked search engine that utilizes a Google map interface for all of Southern California by clicking on this Link Bar.

If you have never purchased a home before there are several things in which you must be made aware:  whether Santa Clarita Real Estate or other areas in which Paris911 Serves:

1.  It is not "normal" to pay your agent a commission in order to have them help you find a home and write the offer.
As a rule of thumb our commission, when representing buyers, is paid by the Seller.  That is the price of admission to having owned real estate and wanting to sell it.  As a seller you will bear the responsibility of paying both Agents commissions.  The one that you have chosen to represent you and market, subsequently bringing the other agent and buyer to your home and successfully closing escrow.  You also pay the Other agent that brings the buyer.  In most markets this fee is 6%, which is allotted 3% per agent or side of the transaction.  A seller will also pay their own fees as they relate to title and escrow.  Usually one (1%) percent of the sales price for each fee - These are set fees and have little wiggle room.  So rough numbers has a seller paying 8% total to sell a home without considerations and discounts.

2.  Your fee’s as a buyer or closing costs are going to be about three things:  
      A.  Your part of Title fees (Usually 1 % of the purchase price or there abouts)
      B.  Your part of Escrow fees (Usually 1 % of the purchase price (this is an estimate))
      C.  Your Lender’s fees (the origination fee for your loan - Appraisal - Document preparation - The list goes on and on depending on the Lender and their Hunger)

3.  You can pay your closing costs in a few different ways:
      A.  Cash
      B.  Check
      C.  Borrowing the money from a relative or friend
      D.  Having the closing costs incorporated into the loan.
      E.  Have the Seller Pay the closing costs.

Let me bring your attention to #3-D, "having the closing costs incorporated into the loan".  This is by far the most popular option for most new home buyers.  IN A HOT MARKET.  OTHER WISE KNOWN AS A SELLERS MARKET. Understanding that for every $10,000.00 financed your payment will change in the area of $50.00 to $75.00 a month - You have a decision to make regarding the hard money you have saved in the bank - Which, for that matter, is not very easy to save and having the closing costs incorporated into the loan.

Another option regarding closing costs is, #3 -E, "having the seller pay the closing costs".  This option is what is the most prevalent at this time in this market and date of this post.  This is a Buyers Market without a doubt.  So in this market you make an offer of let us say $300,000.00 and then ask the seller to pay your closing costs which rough numbers would be 3%, or $9,000.00.  You would still Borrow $300,000.00 to purchase the home, the seller would then clear $291,000.00 (300,000(purchase price) - 9,000(your closing costs) = 291,000(Seller’s Net). 

We have to explain and stress the fact that as a buyer your don’t pay our commission, the reason that this chaps my hide and is so stressed upon by Paris and I is because we have had a huge amount of clients in our office that did get conned into paying their agent an additional fee when just buying a home.  Usually their first home and thereby that agent made more than their "own fair share".
