About Monterey County

Thank you Linda Guy! - Mar 09 11:41 AM
Two years ago I was working for Century 21 in Monterey.  I had a great year, received the Centurian Award, only the 2nd person in the office to do so.  The market was starting to adjust downward, but I didn't think that my business could be affected.
I wrote up an offer for a client of mine and presented it to the listing agent, Linda Guy.  Linda is also the Broker of John Saar Properties in Carmel.  ...

Buying a Home at the Best Possible Price is No Secret! - Feb 24 09:22 PM
The Process of Buying a Home at The Best Possible Price!
  Certain steps for purchasing a house may vary from state to state, or even from county to county.  Your Realtor's goal throughout the process is the same in any location:  to get you the home you want at the Best Possible Price.  During the buyer's interview, I like to explain the process to my clients so that they know what to expect at every step along ...

Last Minute Road Trip to Carmel - Oct 15 02:17 PM
My birthday was last Thursday and my fiance surprised me with a last minute road trip to Carmel (and a Magellan Maestro GPS!).  I can sum up our trip with one word:  WOW!
It took me two days just to really relax and when I finally did we were heading back home.  Now, looking out at my neighbor's trees and fence across the street--which didn't seem so bad before I left--now looks pitiful compared to what I ...

What are the effects of the Sub Prime debacle on the Monterey Peninsula - Jul 31 07:50 PM
 
Entry level homes on the Monterey Peninsula (Monterey, Seaside, Marina, Pacific Grove) has relied somewhat on move up opportunities from the Salinas communities (Salinas, Marina, Soledad, Greenfield, Gonzales, King City, Prunedale, Las Palmas, Oak Hills).  Unfortunately a large percentage of home buyers in Salinas and surrounding areas relied upon sub prime loans and 100% financing opportunities.  Since that market is gone, Salinas is in a very depressed state and those homes are not selling very quickly which ...

Carmel Valley - Jun 24 12:14 PM
 
If you want sun then Carmel Valley is the place for you. The coastal fog seems to burn off much faster with temperatures usually much warmer than other areas on the Peninsula. Carmel Valley has more to offer than just the sun, the lots are generally larger and you have more privacy. The village is much more laid back and people seem to be more casual than in town. There are still plenty of great ...

"Local Market Percolating" - Mar 30 02:02 AM
Local Market Percolating According to the statistics, Monterey County is in a raging buyers' market. In reality, not quite! Although there is a lot of interest and pent-up demand and buyers making offers, sellers aren't budging much from their asking prices. Consequently, few deals are being struck, and, of those that are, a very high percentage are falling out of escrow. Title companies on the Peninsula are guesstimating that 30-50% are falling through.  With that in ...

What a great time to be a buyer! - Feb 05 11:06 AM
Are you a buyer?  Lucky you!  I have always bought high and sold low - no! no!  This is the best time to change that strategy and buy when the time is right:
 -Prices are better now than they have been for years!
-Interest rates are incredibly low.  The lowest they have been in many years!
-You have less competition than many buyers have ever had.  Rarely would you need to be concerned about a multiple offer situation!.
-In addition ...

Donate them to a charity, hold a garage sale - but if you don't want them any more, don't move them. Are you going to pack yourself or hire professionals? If you're doing your own packing, following is a ...
