Client Testimonial

Dear Management,
I wanted to take a moment to let you know about my great experience working with Patrick on my new rental on El Molino Avenue in Arcadia.  Patrick was professional and courteous, and treated me like I was purchasing a $750,000 home, instead of simply renting a cottage.  I will certainly be referring Patrick to my friends and associates with real estate needs, and use his services should I want to purchase a house.

You have a great employee in Patrick!

Kind regards,
Toni

The Demographic Drivers of the Housing Market

The former U.S. Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill coined the phrase “All politics is local” which holds just as true for housing. You and I are interested in what is happening in the Pasadena, California housing market, but every so often I come across a national story that is quite compelling. The attached article has some fascinating insights:

‘Since the Great Recession, fewer young adults are forming new households and fewer immigrants are coming to the United States. As a result, the pace of household growth is unusually slow. Once the recovery gains further momentum, demographic forces should lift the rate of household growth – and in turn, the demand for housing. Over the longer term, the large echo-boom generation will drive much of this demand, increasing the diversity of the nation’s household.’
