Anyone who is looking to buy a home in the Bay Area will benefit from this content.
Last Wednesday, ABC7 news anchor Reggie Aqui invited me over to his show to talk about the state of real estate in the Bay Area. Are we in a real estate bubble? Here’s a summary of what we talked about and what buyers and sellers in the Bay Area really need to know.
What the f—? A couple of months ago, I put out a video on YouTube talking about the housing bubble and how I didn’t think we were in one. At the time, I had some good reasons to think that. However, the numbers I was just looking at, and some anecdotes that I want to share with you have me feeling different today. So today, I’ve got two stories and a little bit of data that I want to share with you which I think you will find interesting. Hopefully, this will be able to help you make a good decision when it comes to buying or selling your home.
It’s 2021! Let’s kick this year off with a video on the top home buyer mistakes I often see people make and what to do instead. We recently bought a house, as you’ve probably seen from a previous post. We’ve made some really easy fixes to it to make it our style and exactly what we wanted. Today, I’m going to talk about exactly what those fixes are so you can also make them for your own home. Let’s go!
One of the things that I thought would be the worst part about living in Gold Coast, in the center of Alameda, is driving through the tube to get into Oakland. But I can tell you, it turned out to be really not that bad. So for today’s video, I’m going to talk about three things that I thought would be a really big deal about moving to the center part of the island. These are things that I initially thought would mean a hard transition for me and have a negative impact on my life but frankly, just haven’t been. Let’s start!

“No one’s crazy.” “Pessimism is seductive.” These are just two chapters from a book I recently read and ended up really loving the author’s creativity and writing style. Today, we’re talking about “The Psychology of Money” by Morgan Housel, and how I think it can help you succeed in your real estate buying, selling, investing, and everything else. There are a couple of things that I pulled out from this book that I think are absolutely critical for anyone looking to buy, sell, or invest in real estate in 2021.
My wife and I just bought a house. We’re in the process of moving in and it really inspired me as a first time home buyer to make this video because it’s putting me through a very different experience than I normally go through.
So the voting is over and California Proposition 19 won by the narrowest of margins, but it still won. But what does it actually mean to you? How is it going to affect your real estate transactions? I think in 2021, when Prop 19 really starts to get rolling, it is going to be a game changer for a lot of folks. It’s because even if you’re not one of the people who can take advantage of the new rules, it’s still definitely going to affect you and your real estate transactions. To get an overview about how it’s going to affect you, watch my video and read my overview of the new, special rules below.
Today we’re talking about Joe Biden’s tax plan and what I think it means for East Bay real estate. Whether you voted for Joe Biden or not, we’re looking at a new tax plan. In this video, we’re going to cover some of the high level things that they’re talking about, and what I think those might mean for you, as someone who might be buying or selling real estate here in the East Bay.
Is the bay area housing bubble going to pop soon? My prediction? No. Because we’re actually not in a bubble.
Before you make a judgment on this video because it’s a real estate agent talking about how we’re not in a bubble, just give me a chance first to tell you what I’m seeing. I did a bunch of research this week on this exact topic because I was going to make a video about how the market is a bit over inflated and we’re probably going to crash because that’s what everyone else is doing on YouTube.
