We love Southern California, we love real estate, and we also love to write. So we’ve been writing about the Southern California real estate market since 1980. Through this blog we can now deliver our thoughts, perspective, and insights at the speed of light. Even better, now you can add your thoughts, insights and questions too.
Who are we? Well, we’re both native Southern Californians, SoCal homeowners, and Realtors ™ who have also served as professional educators.
Dave Emerson, the lead writer, grew up in Lakewood, CA, graduated from UCLA back when their football teams didn’t routinely lose to unranked teams, and currently live in Los Alamitos. He’s an investor who owns dozens of local rental units, primarily in Long Beach, and he’s been #1 in sales out of 500 agents in his company seven different years and has been elected “Agent of the Year” by his peers 4 times.
Blair Newman has the perspective of a younger generation. He has helped dozens of his friends and clients buy and sell property, and is a member of Prudential California’s “Cutting Edge Society,” putting him in the top 15% of all agents. He graduated from Biola University in La Mirada, then lived in Anaheim until buying his present home in Lakewood.
Over the years, we’ve sold homes everywhere from the San Fernando Valley to Orange County. We specialize in Southeast Los Angeles County (Long Beach, Lakewood, Norwalk, etc.) and West Orange County (Los Alamitos, Rossmoor, Cypress, Garden Grove, etc.).
Over the years we’ve developed contacts in most So Cal areas we don’t service ourselves. We’re excited about finding this fast, interactive way to share our perspective on what we see going on every day in the So Cal Real Estate Market.
We’ll also use the expertise of others we know in real estate and related fields, from finance to property management. And we’ll gain the expertise of our readers as well, as you choose to contribute.
