9 Reasons for Owning Your Own Costa Mesa House
Posted by Matt Kanoudi on
You don’t have to convince local homeowners about the wisdom of owning your own Costa Mesa house—but for a while a couple of years ago, that wasn’t universally agreed upon. There was a while there where financial analysts were pointing to the costs of maintenance, interest on mortgage payments, relatively low rental rates, and a bundle of other factors in an argument against owning your own house.
Those voices have been hard to find of late—the numbers make that case pretty hard to support. More common are the analyses like the one CNBC’s The Oracles published last week. The Oracles are “a mastermind group of the world’s leading entrepreneurs.” They assembled a list of 9 reasons that support their contention that owning your own house is a…

A Break for Some Costa Mesa Real Estate Transactions
Posted by Matt Kanoudi on
Last week ended with some good news that can affect many Costa Mesa real estate transactions—specifically some with bottom lines equal to $400,000 or less. It came in the form of a rule change from Washington’s rule-makers, and whether or not it applies to your own property, it may signal a shift in regulatory outlook.
Many Costa Mesa real estate transactions are subject to Federal regulations—rules devised to ensure the soundness of the financial institutions that provide home loans. Theoretically, everyone who buys or sells Costa Mesa real estate should benefit from legal regulations that restrain lenders from granting loans too easily. When that takes place, widespread “easy money” usually results in the kind of abrupt return to reality we saw…

Monday’s Equinox Ends Summer—but the Fed Signals Heat
Posted by Matt Kanoudi on
For astronomers and TV weather forecasters, this Monday marked a red-letter day. It now seems as if the same could be said for Costa Mesa’s market prospects.
In the wee hours, the Sun arrived at one of the two places in every year where its path across the sky crosses the celestial equator (the imaginary line above Earth’s equator). Of course, for Costa Mesa residents, the reality is that it’s pretty much a non-event. Weather-wise, the equinox is an abstraction. The change of seasons creeps slowly, day-by-day, Monday being no exception.
Still, at Tuesday’s dawn, the last day of Costa Mesa’s summer has passed. Whether you call it ‘autumn,’ ‘fall,’ ‘Indian Summer,’ or anything else, the new season is upon us.
And in Costa Mesa real estate…

Updating Your Own Costa Mesa Home with Reclaimed Material
Posted by Matt Kanoudi on
According to Alina Dizik, one of the leading Wall Street Journal’s real estate commentators, a growing number of luxury homeowners are finding new appreciation for an old idea. In fact, the older, the better.
Pursuing a way to enhance the feel of modern homes, more and more homeowners are “getting into the groove” of reclaiming ancient materials—especially old wood. Antique timbers from old New England barn sidings have long been recycled, but usually only for walls. Now other uses are being found to add character to otherwise unexceptional rooms.
For Costa Mesa homeowners looking to update their own homes, looking to the past might be an idea worth thinking about.
The Journal highlights a successful example in a Minnesota couple who…
