We invite you to meet our award-winning Keller Williams Downtown Residential Team and learn about our free services for anyone looking to purchase a loft. Our team’s commitment is to show you the best, most desirable and most affordable properties. We have 7 real estate agents and several assistants whose top priority is to help find the perfect loft or condo property. We also have connections with loan officers at all major banks to help you secure the best home loan possible. Because we live and work in lofts, we know our product well.



HOME BUYER'S CONSULTATION & PROPERTY SHOWINGS
If you are interested in purchasing a loft or condo, let us arrange for you to see the best values. Call 877-4LA-LOFT.   We show lofts 7 days a week. We make all of the appointments, parking, and travel arrangements for you. For new clients we provide a free "Home Buyer's Consulation" which helps us to get to know your needs and those of all the people planning to live in your new home. With this information, we match you up with your ideal property. After our initial interview, we give you a Home Buyer's Information Packet that will walk you step-by-step through all the different procedures you will need to know to purchase a downtown property. We include check lists, definitions for real estate terminology, neighborhood statistics, and much more. If you are a first time home buyer, we also have special incentive packages to tell you about in various communities thoughout Downtown.

Home Buyer's Guide
We want you to understand the loft buying process. From our very first meeting, we begin by providing you the necessary tools to understand your purchase. After you choose our team, we provide you with a completed "Home Buyer's Guide." You'll be using this guide throughout the entire Loft buying process. See below a partial Home Buyer's Guide.

THE DANGERS OF GOING SOLO
Pitfalls in doing your Downtown loft search and contract negotiation alone:
Some individual owners are having a difficult time selling their homes for a variety of reasons. Our experienced agents show you only lofts that are potentially sound investments. And, if you have visited a loft or condo sales office on your own, you probably recognize the information you received is biased towards the development you are previewing. Here are just three things to think about before you visit developments on your own.

1) Brochures are meant to sell you, not inform you:
When you ask a developer's sales representative about the potential downside of purchasing in their community, you will rarely hear anything negative. Every comment is slanted to make the project sound like the perfect investment. We believe you need to be informed about ALL aspects before making a purchase. When you arrive with one of our condo loft specialists, we will have already provided you with a complete rundown on the good and bad conditions about the building and its surrounding community.

2) What you see today isn't always what you get tomorrow:
The City of Los Angeles has a very aggressive development plan. Vacant structures, empty lots, and breath-taking views are disappearing every year. Did you know that a developer can not guarantee a view? Do you understand how traffic and planned development will effect your real estate investment? Before you go loft hunting, meet with agents who know the Los Angeles Loft Development Plan. To learn where all this development is headed, we take you back to why it all began. Learn about lofty trends that could make or break the resale value of your property.

3) It costs no more to use a loft specialist. Matter-of-fact, we've been told for years that Buyers who use agents get far better deals than Buyer who don't. We know this because some of our team members use to work for Developers.
It is illegal for a development to sell units at different prices based on who walks in the front door with you. Plus, when a Developer's representative sees you walk in with a Loft Living Team member, they know you already have a good understanding of all the options available to you. When you walk in alone, they figure you already have an interest in their property and are less likely to negotiate since you will eventually uncover to them that you MUST HAVE a unit in the building.  Find us ONE in-house sales associate who will tell you the negative side of buying in ANY building in Los Angeles and I'll show you a in-house real estate agent who is about to get fired. Our job as Buyer's agents is to give you a balanced overview of all the buildings and go in-depth when focusing on your final selections. All of our services are performed at no direct cost to you. Sellers always pay the Realtor's commission in the sale of residential real estate. Would you fight the biggest lawsuit of your lifetime without a lawyer? Why would you make the largest purchase of your lifetime with out a licensed real estate professional who specializes in the properties you are interested in acquiring.

Now is a good time to buy. If you need to pre-qualify and find a good loan, we can help you with that too.

The agents at our Downtown office have been establishing relationships in the Downtown Los Angeles residential community longer than any other residential real estate agent.
