Why You Should List With Jim
SW Carlsbad
This is the most recent low sale in the 92011, and thankfully it sold immediately to a cash buyer who went direct to the listing agent. And he still paid $51,000 over list: Wait until tomorrow!

Summer 2023 Pricing
The local home pricing is still off the highs of early-2022, but not by much. The smaller sample sizes (fewer sales) will make it harder to accurately identify the trends and cause more frustration/indecision for both buyers and sellers. Have we recovered, or just...
Rates On The Rise
Mortgage rates will be surging after the jobs report today, and you might wonder about the impact. The Fed doesn't meet again until the last week of July, and, by then, it will be certain that they will bump another quarter or half-percent. It probably means that we...

#320 in America

La Costa Valley 6 Update
When I listed 2949 Avenida Castana on March 31st, it was the only house for sale in La Costa Valley. Well, besides this one, which we thought would never sell while priced at $2,400,000 (the model-match comp had just closed under list at $2,175,000 on March 27th). We...
