Ask a Realtor: Should I buy investment property?

Q: Should I buy investment property?

ask-darren-buy-investment-property.jpg

A: With the cost of real estate these days and the amazing options available in Northeast Los Angeles for small, multi-unit buildings, it is not uncommon for clients to purchase investment property to live in.

Historically, real estate can be viewed as a hedge against inflation. If you own investment property with a steady mortgage payment and rising rents… well, you can see where this is going.

The one thing to ask yourself is: are you ready to be a landlord? I help all of my clients be more successful landlords by providing continued updates on regulation, advice on tenant interaction as well as on contracts.

Introducing the new Elysian Heights Elementary School website!

Check it out at:

www.ElysianHeightsElementary.com

When we volunteered to help plan the first ever Elysian Heights Elementary School 5k run/walk we knew what would really help the school and the event fundraising - a new website!

This week we set up the school's new website with information about the school, as well as the capability to accepted donations online. This makes it easier for participants in special events like the upcoming 5k to pay the registration fee, donate additional funds, volunteer and share in the experience through social media.

The school's goal is to raise $10,000 for the students of the school, money which will go to technology, enrichment activities, student materials, and more.

Join us online at

 and on May 3 at the 5k!

Ask a Realtor: How do I know which neighborhood to buy in?

Q: How do I know which neighborhood to buy in?

A: Northeast Los Angeles has so many amazing pockets to choose from. Each neighborhood offers a combination of elements – views, old architecture, walkability, parks, etc. It typically comes down to defining what is most important to you as an individual and a price range that can work. Sometimes a client comes to me knowing the answer to these questions, and sometimes it is part of the discovery process. Either way, I love exploring this city to locate the right property and location to match a client's lifestyle.
