This week has been a great week. Sunday I showed some properties in North Long Beach to tenants of mine. They've been renting from me for a number of years now. In today's market it is finally a real possibility for them to own a home of their own. Exciting! We looked at several homes in the 250-$275,000 price range. Some were bank owned and some were short sales. My tenants ended up writing an offer on a short sale. Now we wait ... Short sales can be real awesome deals when they are approved. The waiting time for the banks involved to get back with a short sale approval is long, 6-8 weeks.

I did receive two offers on my short sale listing in San Pedro. Great property! The short sale packet has been put together and the follow up game with the bank begins.

This May 14th is RED Day !!! Keller Williams Agents will give back to the community. Our Los Alamitos office will collect "Pennies for Pets" for the SPCA Pitchford Center of Long Beach and help them with some cleaning/yard work. Looking forward to that.

Enjoy your day and make it a great one!
