Realtor Laurie Johnson Examines Buyer and Seller Essentials on Second or Vacation Homes in Lake Tahoe
California Realtor Laurie Johnson, of Chase International Real Estate, enjoys educating sellers and buyers on what they need to know going into a real estate transaction in the Lake Tahoe and Truckee areas this spring and summer.
LAKE TAHO, Calif., May 30, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Lake Tahoe is a year-round destination. It is renowned for skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, fishing, emerald waters, beaches and so much more. "Our area has become a world-class destination and popular vacation and second-home market," said Johnson, who has over 18 years of experience in real estate in the Lake Tahoe/Truckee markets and has sold homes in every neighborhood in the Tahoe Sierras.
Johnson further stated that now is the time to buy in the Truckee/North Tahoe area, as interest rates are at an all-time low and the economy is strong. "Buying a second home or vacation property is a good investment when you take into consideration this is your life," added Johnson. "Additionally, buying a home at Lake Tahoe is a lifestyle change that is ideal for family bonding time, doing sporting activities together and creating lasting memories. Primarily, this is a home that will provide quality of life and an escape after a grueling weekly commute."
She suggests that people shouldn't hesitate because the market starts increasing with inventory in spring. "Inventory is rising now to the end of June, as homes will go into escrow during the summer months of July and August, and close in September and October," noted Johnson. "The economy shows more signs of how strong it really is everyday. The current administration has kept rates low amidst a booming economy."
Now is also the best time to start looking for an escape from the heat in the city so you can enjoy your spring and summer. "Start creating your own family legacy or memories this summer in time for the 4th of July or to enjoy summer 2019 as a family," added Johnson.
A free tip to keep in mind, if you are thinking about selling a home in Lake Tahoe or Truckee with Laurie is to consider that starting in June the statewide defensible space ordinance will require a certificate from the fire department to the title company you are using to close escrow. The law requires that homeowners clear out flammable materials such as brush, tree stumps, vegetation, small trees, trees too close to homes or what the fire inspector deems necessary.
