Today's Featured Listing

This very special home is nestled on 22 acres and boasts views of the mountain ranges & offers total privacy! With 2093 sq ft, this well designed floor plan offers a cozy fireplace, a kitchen with double ovens, many sitting areas, 3/2 & lots of natural light. The upstairs bonus room has floor to ceiling windows to take in the views! Quality built in 2002 with Trex decking & 2x6 construction. - Okay, I admit it I've featured this home before... but can you blame me? Its awesome!

I have been remiss in my posting this week but business is CRAZY! This is a word to buyers...Even on an all cash offer - it takes 15 days to complete it. I have been trying to close escrow on a purchase now with a 10 day close and it's just NOT working very well. There are little things going on in the backside of an escrow that can't be rushed by me. Title searches... time it takes paperwork to go from the buyer to the seller and back to escrow...inspection appointments. (and not in any particular order) Whew! Did you know that a buyer has a 3 day rescission on a Natural Hazard Report? That means NOTHING can close until 3 days after the buyer receives that report. Fortunately, I got that one in time but these are things that can delay the whole purchase process. I don't know if that's true for other states but here in California it is. 

Also, due to the shortage of listings on the market right now, as I have mentioned before, its a rush to show a home and get an offer submitted.

So, on the personal front, I'm going back to HSU today to pick up my son. First year of college down - 3-5 more to go. The first year of college can be overwhelming to some and it certainly has been for him. Home for the summer now, he hopefully will be able to re-charge his batteries.

Speaking on that... It's Almost Summer, It's Almost Summer! - I jumped in the pool the other day, the pool has NOT gotten the memo. The pool still thinks it's winter - I think I'll give it a bit more time to warm up...Brrrr...Wanna watch a funny video? - Check it out...
