Buying real estate in Los Angeles
Is now a good time to buy? Am I getting a good deal or am I overpaying? These are oft-posed questions of many buyers of real estate. Real Estate in Los Angeles County has gone up about 13% per year since the year 2000*, even in spite of big market corrections- so the answer is usually that, even if it’s as little scary, buying a house is likely the best investment you will ever make.
BTRE is here to make sure that you feel confident and comfortable that you are doing the best possible thing for yourself and your family legacy, and that you are confident and comfortable that you have the best possible representation in the transaction. BTRE gives you the advantage of next level representation, backed by years of real estate, lawyer, and investor experience.
Advantage #1: Lawyer level negotiating skills and understanding of contracts.
BTRE was founded by Richard Evanns, a lover of real estate who also happens to be an investor, lawyer, and many-year litigator. With Richard at the helm of your deal, you will have the security of knowing that your agent:
*Knows laws of real property, real estate transactions, and contracts;
*Knows how to have a soft touch when called for, and the opposite when called for. Knows how to respond to laggers, sweet-talkers, hard-ballers, hiders-of-the-ball, and everything in between;
*Knows intuitively, regardless of high pressure/high stakes, how to most effectively advocate for, and tenaciously pursue a client’s goals, to get deals done in the best interest of the client- no matter what.
In any deal involving us, the client will be diligently counseled, zealously advocated for, and will be, and most importantly, will feel, taken care of in every aspect.
Advantage #2 We believe in strong client advocacy and coaching, and therefore, we get your offer accepted.
We were real estate clients long before we had real estate clients- and we strive to give back to others, what we would want for ourselves. And we advocate for you in your transaction as if it was our own.
Advantage #3 We Know how to spot the right properties, and convert them.
Whether assisting clients with their dream home or investment properties, the right deals are often hiding in plain sight on the MLS/Zillow/Redfin. We have found these for ourselves for years and continue to do so for clients. There are things to look for in listings and ways to find the right properties- all BTRE agents are trained to scour listings look for your criteria, in order to find our clients that special deal and/or that special property. Whether your buy box is an investment 4-plex, or a midcentury modern with no less than an acre of land, a pool at least 5 bedrooms, a sauna, and in a school district that is at least a 9/10 – we will not stop looking until we find it for you.
