Why You Shouldn’t Go By Zillow’s Zestimate to Determine Value for Your Big Bear Lakefront Property
I’ve had a longstanding joke with a friend of mine about Zillow’s estimated values on real estate in Big Bear.  We both know that their “Zestimates” are off but he’ll email me and tell me according to Zillow his property went up 10% last month….and 10% more this month.  We both know its not true, [...]
The Water Depths of Big Bear Lake (Map)
Below is a great hydrographic map regarding the varying depths of water in Big Bear Lake. If you’re concerned about the water level in a particular area, you can always use this map as a reference. It reinforces my opinion that the east end of the valley is more shallow than the west end and [...]

How to Be a Fantastic Buyer’s Agent
Early this week I had the pleasure of meeting a great couple who were looking for a new buyer’s agent in my area. They had been working with a different Realtor for almost a year and had not had any success in purchasing a vacation home in Big Bear. As I listened to their story, [...]
Sure Fire Way To Increase Sales

Big Bear Home Buyers – Get Educated!

Buying a Fannie Mae Property – First Look Policy
Fannie Mae properties are a lot different than other REO or bank foreclosures. Just one of the differences is the First Look program – the first 15 days a property is listed for sale (or listed on HomePath.com), they will only respond to offers from “owner occupants and those using public funds.” This affects Big [...]
