Why Young Adults Should Purchase a Home

Why Young Adults Should Purchase a Home

Buying a house can be a difficult task for anyone to do. So of course with student loans, an entry-level job, and the desire to travel and explore the world, it’s understandable why as a young person there’s the decision to rent over buying. However, homeownership presents many benefits that cause a significant impact to your financial future when choosing to purchase a home earlier rather than later. There’s a reason that Urban Institute finds $72,000 difference between those who purchase a home between 25 and 34, and those who waited to buy until 35 to 44.   more...

What Happens After September 30th, 2021?

What Happens After September 30th, 2021?

'The state legislature adjourned this month without extending its eviction moratorium and the terms of AB 832. So, barring any extraordinary effort on either the governor or lawmakers, the state moratorium should, therefore, finally lapse on September 30, 2021. Beginning October 1, 2021, and continuing through March 2022, California will enter into the "COVID-19 Rental Housing Recovery Act." What this means in Alameda County
Nothing at all! For some of you, September 30, 2021, will be the proverbial "light at the end of the tunnel." But for those with rentals in Alameda County, the end of California's moratorium will have absolutely no effect, and properties will remain mired in local "emergency" ordinances, which still effectively prohibit ALL evictions indefinitely. Laws in both Oakland and Alameda County will only expire 60 days after the local emergency ends. Our honest assessment is that regular evictions will not be allowed in Alameda County until 2022 at the earliest. Only cases involving an "imminent threat to health and safety," post-foreclosure, forcible detainer, and at-will tenancies may move forward for the time being. Please reach out to us if these issues relate to your tenancy. What this Means Everywhere Else   more...
