I am currently in a sticky situation ina transaction. I have been using the same home inspector for several 
years. Throughout the years we have not really en-counted a problem. Now he has called 2 of the same "New Code" issues on the last 2 inspections he has completed for me and both sellers are upset!
In both cases the inspector is stating : "a gas line is improperly installed and needs upgrading." The home buyer requests the "improper gas line to be replaced to whatever is proper or required. The home sellers gets upset because the heater was recently installed. Seller calls the home inspector and the home inspector basically talks the home seller out of changing the gas line by telling the seller that "it's not necessary to change it! So then why put it in the home inspection that it is "improper".
Also this situation is a new code change, I m a REALTOR and not a licensed contractor. How do I best explain to buyers and sellers this conflicting information and code changes without becoming liable?

To potential home buyers,
My wife and I found Tina on the Internet while looking for real estate agents. We wanted someone who had moved into the electronic age. When we met Tina she was very friendly and professional. We had no doubt that she would do a good job for us. Before we got started - my family wanted me to try another agent (someone they knew). This agent was good but just not "right" for us. We told Tina what had happened and asked if she would be willing to work with us. She understood and agreed to start over.
The house we brought - was a big challenge. Not due to anything Tina did but a whole host of other things. Tina worked very hard to help us close the deal. She went out of her way to bring things to the house when we could not come to the office. With a busy schedule this was something that was really appreciated. I called her 24/7 with questions (I really do mean 24/7 - in retrospect I am surprised she answered all those calls). She is very knowledgeable about all the issues in buying a house. I highly recommend her to anyone who is thinking about buying a house. When we are ready to buy our next house - we hope she will still be doing this.

Fullerton California: I am happy to announce that I just assisted another wonderful family in purchasing their first home. Mr & Mrs G had called me on another one of my listing in the Sunny Hills. They were trying to purchase their first home in either the Laguna Road school district or the Fisler school district. 
Unfortunately the home they called on already had several offers and they were unable to make an acceptable offer. I promised them that I would help them find the "home that was just right for them"and most important for them, " in the right school district"!
It only took a few weeks, with the help of "The Listing Book" program that I enrolled them in, for us to find and purchase the home on Millstream. Mr & Mrs G were obtaining an FHA loan which took about 45 days to "process" or "close the escrow". We were all happy at the walk through! I love helping people and making money at the same time!

Thinking of selling your Placentia, California home? Please call me! I recently listied a home of my past client. I had SOLD it to them as a Bank Repo back in 1997! I had kept in touch with them over the past 12 years. They knew that even thought my office was in Fullerton I lived not too far from them in Yorba Linda and that I knew Placentia very well.
My aggressive Internet marketing plan got this home sold in Just 7 Days! I was able to produce multiple offers for the seller to choose from. The value was much higher than was originally thought we could get the home appraised for. I will keep my fingers crossed for the next week and hope the transaction closes smoothly.
In the meantime, I am assisting a buyer for a Placentia home with No Association Dues or Mello Roos. Looking for a home over 2000 square feet. I have an approved buyer that will be selling their Fullerton home in order to purchase a home in Placentia. These buyers should be ready to purchase in 3 weeks to a month. If you are thinking of selling your Placentia home please call me!

I have been a residential real estate agent for 20 years now. I am both a listing agent and a selling agent. I know what it is like to represent sellers and buyers and the different roles involved. What I do not understand after 20 years of selling home in North Orange County is why listing agents today feel as if it is acceptable NOT to respond to offers!
I have written approximately 15 offers for my different buyers in the past few months. I was surprised by either how long it took for an listing agent or their staff to respond or by them not responding at all! Have they forgotten the rules and ethics?
I know these days with bank repos, short sales and multiple offers it is difficult. Yet having stated that, listing agents must remember that they are dealing with people and their lives here! I have especially encounter this in the First Time Home Buyers price range. It's difficult to explain to a buyer why someone would not care about the offer that was so important to them.

With Tina's help, my wife and I recently purchased a new home in Fullerton, California after shopping around for almost a year. We initiated contact with Tina after discovering an ad for a property in her local area. It was obvious from the initial communication that Tina was a serious and dedicated professional.
As our purchase was a bank foreclosed property, the process was a little different than the typical home purchase and Tina walked us through the process step by step. I have no doubt that had it not been for Tina's professional efforts, the property would have gobbled up quickly by other bargain hunting homebuyers.
In any real estate market, buyers and sellers need an agent who will work to protect and pursue the best interests of their clients; my wife and I believe that Tina is this person.
Sincerely, Matthew and Christie Reichman New Homeowners, April 2008
Tina from RE/MAX North Orange County represents the professional side of a great Realtor with a plethora of understanding past and present real estate trends. Working with her I felt no apprehension of buying my home in a changing market. Tina's advice about the neighborhood, local amenities structure and condition of the property made me feel at ease. She was able to research other home sales in the area, crime statics and the ratio of renters to owners in my community. I will certinately use Tina againg and refer her to my friends and family. Thanks Tina! Jamail Brown, New Homeowner October 2007

Perspective sellers and buyers,
In working with Tina Maraj-Shah for the past 11 years, my husband and I have found her to be very pleasant to work with. She has always been very responsive and prompt in getting us any information we have requested. Her attitude is always positive and she is more than willing to go the extra mile.
Tina has also taken an interest in our children and has sponsored their softball and soccer teams. We would recommend her services to anyone who is looking for a realtor in the Orange County area.
Sincerely, Jorge and Rebecca Gonzalez Fullerton Ca

We were fortunate to have Tina be our agent and represent us in the sale of the house. We picked Tina from among several agents that we interviewed as she came well prepared with pertinent brochures and was able to cheerfully answer our questions.
The house sale took place at a time when sales had plunged and several houses in the immediate neighborhood were listed - some for a long time. Tina's knowledge was evident in pricing the house for the right amount and she was very helpful in suggesting the improvements and finishing touches that we made at the last moment. Tina or one of her Remax team was always available to answer our questions and to conduct open houses. She handled the paperwork moved the sale through escrow in maximum time and at all times was very professional and knowledgeable in performing her duties.
We recommend Tina to any future seller/buyer and would be happy to engage her services in the future.
Sincerely,
Munir and Hilda Zacharia
Tina was always working for me. She showed clients my Anaheim Hills home at all hours of the day, night and weekends. Whenever I needed something completed from her she did it on time. I would definitely use Tina again for buying, selling or property management. I am happy to refer her to my friends and family.
Jhonny (Jett) Pedroza; November 2006
One of the best days in 2006 was when a friend referred Tina Maraj Shah Realtor. My employment took me away from Fullerton to Kentucky. Tina was my "lucky penny" that appeared on my doorstep and successfully moved in to handle my transition with incredible professionalism, unquestionable ethics, as well as a delightful personality. Tina aggressively promoted my unique property on Melville, providing guidance with moral principles, while never letting go of her positive and enchanting personality. Tina is an energetic professional; she initiates options for the client, keeps her appointments and completes all expected follow-up. I am so fortunate to have entered into a business relationship with Tina and would fully recommend Tina if you need a genuine real estate professional. Tina will not disappoint you.
Margaret Lawson, VP Science & Innovation; October 2006
We chose Tina as our Realtor when we purchased our home on Miramar in June 2003. Our agent was very disappointing. Tina represented the sellers. We were impressed with the way she handled the transaction and came to find out from The Rafters that they had worked with Tina in the past and were happy with her results. When we needed to purchase a home in April of 2004 so we could have a place to live while we were remodeling our Raymond Hills Home, we enlisted Tina's services for the purchase. Tina represented and protected our needs quite well. In July2006 we were ready to sell our home on Balfour. Once again Tina exceeded our expectation as an agent . She sold our home in 7 days and we received $3,100.00 over the asking price! I can't tell you how relieved our family is to have found Tina Maraj Shah Realtor of RE/MAX North Orange County in Fullerton. She has made purchasing and selling a positive and pleasurable experience. Paul & Karla Webb; July, 2006
"What my husband and I can truly say about the purchase of our home in Hidden Lakes is that Tina was there to make things happen. Then, from the purchase of our home, February 2006 to now , she remains in contact with us. Keep it up Tina"!
Al and Antonette Floresca, February 2006
"I had been receiving market updates through the mail from Tina for 15 years. When I was ready to sell my Hidden Lakes Property in Fullerton I could not think of anyone else to call but Tina. She handled my transaction in a pleasant and professional manner."
