"1 in 59 children are on the autistic spectrum"

CDC (Center of Disease Control) April 2018

"Each year, an estimated 50,000 teens with autism age out of their school-based programs" CDC (Center of Disease Control) April 2018 It is estimated that 1.3 million adults have aged out of their current programming with nowhere to go. Without day programming, many remain in the home without access to educational services that lighten the load of an already strained household. These families are our neighbors.

B Walker Ranch has a solution. B Walker Ranch is dedicated to making a profound difference for those families whose lives have been touched by autism. A working Ranch program that can be duplicated in communities everywhere.

REALTORS vs VETERANS I recently encountered a young man while we were both volunteering to help at an event to support the homeless. He was probably in his early 20’s and of impressive size and stature. Near the end of the day’s work I sought him out to thank him for volunteering and to learn more about him. He told me he| was Veteran| of Iraq-Afghanistan and 6 Beds 5.5aBaths 6,600± SF | .59± Acre Lot | 4 Car Garage had heard about the event from other Vets. I had noticed that he never removed his cap or glasses. He explained he was concealing injuries encountered in the war. Removal of his sun glasses revealed a missing eye and very damaged area around the eye. Removal of the cap revealed many divots and bumps and odd patches of hair and scars. Just the sort of thing that would make little children run for mommy. As we parted I thanked him for his help and his service to this country. I hope our society, the VA, and everyone around him are grateful, and assist him in any way possible. I hope he is the first to be hired and the last to be laid off in whatever endeavor he chooses.

UNDERSTANDING HOME INSPECTIONS By Patrick McCarran ~ Real Estate Broker

Purchasing your home is one of the biggest thrills of your life, but it can also quickly become overwhelming. Whether you are buying a new or a resale home it is important that you look underneath the staging, perfect floorplan, or location and see what may be hiding that could impact your dream home and pocketbook. Enter the home inspector. A home inspector performs a basic physical inspection of the structure and systems of your prospective home. This means that while you may love the beauty of the living room’s wood floors, your inspector can tell if the floor will truly last. The home inspection is an objective visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a home, from roof to foundation. The inspection will determine not only the present condition of the home, but also help foresee any immediate or future necessary additional costs that may go unnoticed by the untrained eye. Home inspections start at around $500 depending generally on the size of the home. I believe it’s money well spent.

A standard home inspector’s report will cover the basic condition of the home’s heating system; central air conditioning system (temperature permitting); interior plumbing and electrical systems; visual of the roof, visual of the attic and insulation; walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors; the foundation, basement and structural components. I have always viewed a home inspection much like a visit to the doctor for a physical from a general practitioner, if there are any problems or concerns you are referred to a specialist such as a cardiologist. A home inspection works in a similar manner, if there is a concern about the foundation you are recommended to a structural engineer, plumbing to a plumber etc. The inspection will show the positive and negative aspects of a home, as well as the maintenance that will be necessary to keep it in good shape. After an inspection you should have a much clearer understanding of the value and needs of the property. I think it is important to note that even if a house needs repairs, it shouldn’t always be the cause for getting out of a

sale. No house is perfect and as long as you know ahead of time what needs to be done and are comfortable with the cost and possibly the ramifications, knowing about an issue before closing gives you the peace of mind before you close or often make an offer. The home inspection can give you a great starter list of what needs to be done to really make moving in that much easier. Don’t be shy about asking questions and getting a clear understanding. I would like to note that home inspectors are not licensed or certified by the State so do your research to make sure your inspector is qualified. I recommend that they are members of an association with certification criteria and a standard of practice such as ASHI. Patrick McCarran is a local Realtor and Broker DRE# 01325072.

Changes in the Market. What to Expect….. for now!

In the past month things look to be experiencing big changes in the market. All of them have been expected; they have been mentioned in previous article I have written as well as others have also written about them. Let’s see what has changed and what you should expect…… Just to remind you when dealing in the purchase or sale of real estate, the longer you delay, the more it will cost. This is true whether you are buying or selling. 1) The big one; mortgage interest rates have increased….a lot! Since the beginning of the year they have nearly doubled. Opinions vary but one thing is clear; you loan will cost more. What’s done is done, but it is no reason to take yourself out of the market. The cost of your loan can be managed by reassessing how much you borrow, improving your credit score, or a number of other things that you can do. Call me or your mortgage broker to discuss options that might work for you. 2) Home prices have not fallen despite these rate increases. To be sure, prices today have remained stubbornly high. What also has occurred is that home remain on the market for a longer time and even better we are now beginning to see price reductions in an increasing number. Multiple bids are not as numerous nor excessively over the asking bid. To help in this, the number of listings is increasing in several markets which aids the Buyer in getting a property that better meets their needs. Also, the Buyer may ask for concessions that would have otherwise killed deals in the past. 3) The summer season is coming soon. Once it is here many Buyers and Sellers delay their purchases and sales until the vacation season winds its way down. Projections that this summer will see a much large impact on markets as record number of people are expected to go on a vacation this summer with the ending of COVID restrictions. Even if new restriction may be imposed; people are expected to vacation in record number. People that stay active in the real estate market will excounter less competition, for the most part.

4) Volatility. This is a damper to transactions of any type; especially those as important as the purchase or sale of your largest asset. As prices, mortgage interest rates, the threat of recession, inflation, war, and other distractions that are present into today’s world, it is difficult to assess what and how the impacts on you would interfere with your life. As a result, many if not most people withdraw until ‘things get better’. Of course, for those that are not impacted by these things make out pretty well, taking advantage of conditions that others have shied away from. Working with your agent can help you get past distractions and profit from acting during times like this. Call me if you like!

Reading a magazine remains a uniquely intimate and immersive experience. 5. Not only is magazine readership up, but readers spend an average of 43 minutes per use. 6. Further, those 43 minutes of attention are typically undivided.

INTERACTIVE

VIRTUAL OPEN HOUSE TOUR What are some of the perks of doing a Virtual Real Estate Open House?

Current or potential customers can virtually tour the home from any device at their convenience ~ 24/7.

Without a doubt, virtual open houses lead to greater opportunities to connect with your prospects or leads because of three main reasons: • It expands your reach: Virtual open houses no longer just serve the needs of locals who come to see the home in-person. Hosting open houses online means that your videos can be viewed without limitations of time or space. All it takes is a link to be shared out for another opportunity to be created.

Fully interactive experience (not video), similar to Google Street View.

• You can offer the convenience of anytime, anywhere: You can save you and your buyers time from having to travel and coordinate schedules to meet. Virtual tours are viewable until the day the property closes escrow. • Buyers will want the option: Not everyone is interested in commuting to see a house in person for the first time. Occasionally, buyers will be more interested to vet a potential investment by first scanning it online. Whether or not social distancing enforcements are making it mandatory for you to only conduct virtual tours or not, having these be a part of your practice can help you filter out non-serious leads as it encourages only serious buyers to approach for further information.
