How we helped Courtney with his real estate needs by going above and beyond

"Tim went far and beyond what I expected from a real estate agent. He drove me around the city and took me to as many places as I needed to see. This was the first property I’ve ever bought in my life so there was nothing he wouldn’t do to make sure it was right. There really is nothing he wouldn’t do to please his clients!"

How we helped Philip with his real estate needs by providing a lot of options

"We had fantastic results with Tim and his team. They all were extremely responsive, intuitive, and he knew exactly what we were looking for. Not only that, but he was even able to show us a lot of options we weren’t even considering! He really was more than just a real estate agent for myself and my family."

How we helped Will with his real estate transaction by always being accessible

 "I’ve worked with Tim on 3 transactions now and we’ve always had fantastic results! He’s just a really good Realtor and a really good guy. He’s always accessible and I really feel like he has my best interests in mind and that’s what’s so commendable. If it’s the right time to buy he’ll tell you if it’s the right offer or the wrong offer. There’s just something about him and his company where you just trust what they’re telling you. He’s really a guidance counselor, not just a real estate agent."

Long Beach Real Estate Market Snapshot



The Long Beach area has a wide selection of fantastic homes to choose from. If you're curious about what properties are currently listed on the market, GO HERE to perform a Full Home Search, or if you're considering selling your home, CLICK HERE to obtain a Free Home Value Report.

During 2012 and 2013 we saw a significant appreciation of home sales here in Long Beach and throughout California as a whole. Now, looking back at 2014 we can see that our market has taken a breath and is starting to calm down. This is great news, as it means we're heading toward a normal, balanced market.

According to the California Association of Realtors, we'll be looking at a healthy market in 2015. We're expecting to see an appreciation rate of 3.5%, which is a good sign. The 15%-30% appreciation rates we've seen over the last few years are simply unsustainable. If the market didn't cool off, we would have seen hyperinflation and the beginning of yet another bubble, which would be bad news for everyone.

Depending on your area, your home value is either appreciating at a slower rate or starting to soften. To get a better idea of what's going on with home values, here are some of the median sales prices of specific areas:
  • Long Beach: $468,500 
  • Naples & Belmont Shore: $785,000 
  • Wrigley: $396,000
  • Bixby Knolls / California Heights: $544,000  
  • Los Altos / The Plaza / South of Conant: $568,000

As you can see, market conditions vary by neighborhood. If you want a detailed report for your area, give us a call or shoot us an email. We'd be happy to send it to you.

If you have any questions or concerns about real estate here in Long Beach, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We can cover a topic of your choosing in a future video to ensure your real estate ventures are always profitable. Thanks, and have a great day!
