Aliso Viejo Homes Market Update January 2011   Aliso Viejo homes last month showed a month-to-month decline in active homes, but also a decline in pending and sold homes:   Usually, a decline in active inventory is good news for sellers as there is less competition in their community.  However, the decline in pending and sold homes indicates that buyers are not buying at the pace they were in 2010, although they are buying more Aliso Viejo homes than they were in 2009. The January 2011 absorption rate for Aliso Viejo homes is about 5.5 (274 active units/50 sold units).  A number between 4 and 6 is generally considered a "neutral" market although it is on the edge of a buyer's market. Prices continued to generally decline for Aliso Viejo homes as well: Keep in mind that price per square ...

OKAY!  I CLICK ON email on an profile and it jumps to  email (with no email address), but an email prompt pop ups and you can type subject and actually write memo and that will be sent to the  member. So, you don't actually see their email address. SO, MY NOTE TO MEMBERS.... Somewhere in your info, blogs, about section. TYPE YOUR EMAIL. You want to be contacted or perhaps,  can come up with a solution when that box pops up.... maybe we can also see the address... OR JUST MAYBE THEY WANT TO HANDLE THE EMAIL AT THAT POINT OF CLICKING EMAIL.... HHHMMMM..... Regardless, let's see your email.... Remember the generation that is doing business in this TECHY world uses lots and lots of email..... versus picking up the phone. Just saying.... and they might see your blog you posted to the rest o...

FEBRUARY 6, 2011 A VIRTUAL PHONE NUMBER I have this amazing service and it is "FABULOUS"! I have been using over a year and it helps me run my business. My number goes to my cell phone, but callers can be prompt to your voice-mail. What's so fantastic is that the caller states who they are, you still see their number pop, but if you don't recognize it, when you answer> the caller states who they are. It's a great screen-er in case it's a solicitor you know ahead of time and you choose to take the call or not. Talk about amazing technology that helps you run your business professionally. I am ePro certified and anything that helps me work "SMARTER, NOT HARDER!" I am game!!

IT'S TIME TO RECEIVE YOUR FAX VIA EMAIL! I use myFax, it's great because your fax goes to your email choice(s) inbox. So, if you have two emails or you want one sent to  your virtual assistant (as I do), you can. The great thing is the file is sent to you in .pdf format and no one has to download special software (like eFax use to do, not sure if that is the case now, but horrible when I had it). LOVE LOVE myFax. I will send you a link. LINK TO SIGN UP FOR myFax is here>>>  http://www.myfax.com/refer/ (if you fill this out, my name and email goes in the first three boxes and yours will be after.....) /or CALL 1-866-378-2373 AND TELL THEM LAUREN SELINSKY REFERRED YOU...

JANUARY 31, 2011 Today was a nice day going to the post office in Laguna Hills~ Closest post office in AV with a close race to the Laguna Niguel office, but it seems to go quicker over here. It's raining in the OC, but the sun is out... Go figure! So, I am in line with only about 8 people in front of me, when I see the two people at the only (2) counters that are open and overheard the postal clerk tell the (80 something yr) woman (with a walker) that she would have to put her package in a priority box since her package was too wide and would cost extremely more money otherwise. So, the postal clerk said, "just move to the side and come back to the counter when you are done". I immediately went up to the counter and asked if i could help her. She said, "Oh dear, thank you so much". I t...

JANUARY 29, 2011 MY DEAREST FIRST BORN I saw you first in September 1988, the doc said, "it's a boy" The joy you brought me that day, are words I can still feel today Only having you and my best friend in Germany seems like a perfect life at no end   Every year your birthday is near I thought of what joy I should create, A day that is "Special" - just for you and to wonder what lies ahead... Then, you started off for school being a leader and a true friend to all   It seems to me like yesterday when you you excelled in Little League, NJB and Football But it's not yesterday anymore... and I know how great you still are That special cap, jammies, and jersey are still known in my mind And that laugh that flows in the room bring tears to my eyes.   Then, you became a teen and track, footba...

3 bedroom homes Aliso Viejo   Some clients on the cusp of being able to buy an extra bedroom that they don't necessarily need will ask me, "should I buy a home with that extra bedroom?"  I usually tell them they should buy what they need, but if they are trying to decide between a 2 bedroom and a 3 bedroom home, a 3 bedroom home is a better investment.  I decided to take a look at Aliso Viejo homes in the last 4 years to test this advice (I'm measuring between January 2007 and December 2010 using Trendgraphix).   3 bedroom homes in Aliso Viejo hold up relatively well in resale value   Prices are generally down between 30% and 35% in the last 4 years in Aliso Viejo depending on how you measure.  Aliso Viejo home prices overall are down 30% measured using price per square foot and 35% usi...
