Comment on Orange County Property Tax Assessment Appeal ~ My Story by Manhattan Beach Realtor

Highly recommend that every home owner who has not yet seen reductions in property tax assessments do the same! Even if you have, it doesn’t hurt to challenge further. Building your case beforehand, like Michael did, should make the process much smoother…

That’s a very hefty reduction. I think part of the reason why you got it is because you build a good rapport with Wendy and thus she was more willing to help you.

Those are great rates indeed; however rates may be affected soon by S&P’s recent downgrade of U.S credit. Also, not to mention the new mortgage reforms which will make it more difficult to obtain a home loan for the average American.

I can’t imagine these rates lasting too much longer, especially with conforming limits being reduced in the near future.

Comment on Newport Coast Real Estate – Median Price Statistics for Zip Code, 92657 by Manhattan Beach Agent

What I find tough about median prices in high end markets is that variance of prices skews real price movements. That’s at least what I find in Manhattan Beach and the South Bay, and I’m guess it’s the same in Newport Beach, and most of coastline Orange County. Something akin to the Case-Shiller property pairing method would be required to see how prices really move, but I guess median prices are at least recognizable to the general public, and therefore useful.

Good to see that prices look to be improving in OC!

It’s not always that easy with City officials but if you are patient, you can resolve your issues with any city or get some answers.

The Median price of 101 sold homes would be the price which is lower than 50 of the prices and also higher than 50 of them. Do not confuse this term with average. Homes For Sale Newport Coast

The difference between average and median can be quite different. For example, if you are looking at a “sold” market analysis and the homes are evenly distributed, the median and average might be similar.
