Have You Ever Taken A Wrong Turn In Life
Haven’t you ever taken a wrong turn in life? Like, maybe you meant to attend college down south at UCLA but ended up at Sacramento City College? You make the best of it, that’s what you do. You don’t wander around complaining and pointing fingers at your parents because they couldn’t afford tuition and housing at UCLA. You just get on with your life, right? You grab with gusto that C-minus GPA and march forward into the world, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. It’s about forgiveness, understanding and humility.

Reasons to Call that Sacramento Listing Agent Before Typing a Contract
Reasons to call that Sacramento listing agent before typing a contract are important. Ever since I got the iPhone, and rarely turn it off because I need to charge it every night, I don’t always remember to turn off the mute in the morning. I don’t notice it because I wear a Bluetooth, so when agents call me, I immediately answer the call by pressing my Bluetooth device. I might never notice that my phone doesn’t ring out loud, especially since I’m focused on the conversation.
I’m generally in front of my computer or have my iPad with me. So, answering emails doesn’t have to be done on a tiny screen on my phone. I can whip off emails at a whim on a big screen. All of this means I am not looking at my phone during the day, so text messages often sneak in unnoticed. Some agents don’t want to be bothered calling anybody, so they will always text message. When I call them to follow up, because it’s easy to press CALL and talk; they act surprised, like why am I calling them?
Personally, I don’t care how they contact me just as long as they contact me. They can mess up my name six ways from Sunday, and it’s OK. What is disturbing is when agents have zero contact, none at all; and then whammo, an offer shows up in my email box without warning. Reasons to call that Sacramento listing agent before typing a contract are important. We may already have multiple offers for one.

Pending Home Sales Decrease 5.7% in January
Pending Home Sales Decrease 5.7% in January. The excerpt from California Association of Realtors, below shows inventory continues to drop. Enjoy the read and the link will provide more info. ~~JaCi Wallace
“California Association of Realtors, abreviation, “CAR.” (February 25, 2022) – Pending home sales slumped in January, continuing what is now a three-month drop in transactions, the National Association of Realtors® reported. Of the four major U.S. regions, only the West registered an increase in month-over-month contract activity. All four regions posted a decline in year-over-year activity.
The Pending Home Sales Index (PHSI),* www.nar.realtor/pending-home-sales, a forward-looking indicator of home sales based on contract signings, fell 5.7% to 109.5 in January. Year-over-year, transactions decreased 9.5%. An index of 100 is equal to the level of contract activity in 2001.” CAR
“With inventory at an all-time low, buyers are still having a difficult time finding a home,” said Lawrence Yun, NAR’s chief economist.”

The Myth Behind Those Back-on-Market Homes in Sacramento
Short Sale Blog 2014: This spring real estate market in Sacramento is off to a rocky start, at least in my little camp in the universe. It seems that every time I take a home off the market and place it into pending status, there is some kind of issue with the buyer that should have been resolved prior to writing an offer. What I call an “Oops” status. Except it’s like a 30-foot-deep snow blizzard, so I just say Oops to be funny, otherwise, I’d be tearing out my hair.
Over the last dozen years, even through the real estate crisis, a listing agent could be relatively assured that when she changed that status on a home in Sacramento from active to pending, that it would at least make its way into escrow. Because, after all, she had an accepted purchase contract. That doesn’t seem to be the case at the moment. Read more in my personal blog about.

What to Say to an Agent if You Are Not Ready to Buy a Sacramento Home
What to say to an agent if you are not ready to buy a Sacramento home. It’s pretty easy to call a Sacramento real estate agent and ask about homes for sale. Zillow publishes our phone numbers under an alias phone number, and I register that alias in order to report telemarketers, along with the alias at the Do Not Call List. But buyers and sellers and prospective clients are certainly welcome to call this Sacramento real estate agent.
We receive a ton of phone calls from a variety of websites throughout my workdays. Not all of those callers are actual home buyers or home sellers, though. Some callers are kids in high school and simply curious about the cost of a loaf of bread, which they would never purchase nor toast, on top of which, this is not Safeway, but what the hey, this crap comes with the territory.
One guy left a text message way after bedtime around midnight. He followed it up with an angry email at 6 AM wondering why he had not received a response. I wondered if he had ever made it to bed or if he was still drunk and whether his parents know where he is.
