For example, in California rates charged on hard money loans start as low as 9%, versus rates starting at 14% in New Jersey.

I come from a mother who practices as a CA Realtor as well as a father who is a General Contractor.

In lending (my specialty) cash is king.

I managed a 72-unit complex in Glendale Ca and usually had my units rented within 2 weeks at $1650 for 2+2.

In California permit fees for laundromats are very high (I think it's due to the water usage and how much dirty water is dumped into the system, etc.)

I wish CA and NV would do it.

Greetings;I am looking around for a new landlord policy for a house I own in WI (I live in CA).

Here in CA, people like the weather and the income but not the crowds and want to move to smaller towns.

In CA, we don't see too many Executor or Administrator Deeds.

I'd also phone the California Department of Real Estate to see if the agent's tactics fall within the real estate statutes and ethics of the profession.My experience has been that larger tracts, obtained by "packaging," invariably have a "hold out" that thinks their tract is necessary for a developer to move forward.
