Fireside Chats now Replaced With Thurs. Nite Open Houses
Now you can stop by after work and ask those burning questions. Wouldn't you rather ask "moi" in person?

Q. Does the HOA cover trash? Don’t see anything about that on your website.
A. Yes, but there will be a small charge on your GWP bill for trash which the city explained to me covers bus bench maintenance and other small stuff.
Q. Is the roof new?
A. The flat built-up roofs have all been replaced in the last year, and the sloped shingles are the existing roofs. We never had problems with the sloped roofs, but the reserves have more than enough money to cover it if needed.
Q. How close are the movie theatres?
A. We have 3 different theatres downtown, about 2 miles away. The Americana on Brand will also have an 18-plex cinema.
Q. Have you checked out the Left Coast Wine bar?
A. It is fairly new, but there are 3 local wine bars in our proximity. I’ll have to blog about them!
Q. Is there a gym on the property?
A. Not as of now, but we have 2 vacant rec rooms where the homeowners can decide what to use them for. A couple people already said they want a gym!
President's Day Q & A
Thanks to all who stopped by the warm, cozy fire (link) and asked all those great questions. Since this was such a successful experiment, I will do this weekly (Thurs. evenings from 7:00 - 8:00 pm) and create a new link on my blog navigation that posts the questions you asked. I think I’ll affectionately call it my Fireside Chat Q and A. Catchy, huh?
Here’s a sample from our President’s Day chat:
Q. I have an outdoor cat, is that OK?
A. I don’t know much about cats, but sometimes homeowners are allergic, and that needs to be respected. All cats have to be indoor, basically staying in compliance with the CCR’s.
Q. How safe is the neighborhood?
A. According to LAlife.com, we are rated a 10 out of 10 for safety. No adjacent areas have that!
(This just in- Glendale,CA ranked top 25 safest cities in the country! (read more)
Q. My aunt’s a lender- can I use her for the loan?
A. Make sure she calls me first so I can be sure she pre-qualify’s the property. About half the lenders out there cannot close on a new subdivision.
Q. Cool site, dude!
A. Thanks! Can you put that in the form of a question?
Q. How much will closing costs be?
A. Closing costs are usually about 2-3% of the purchase price. Some of my blogging has talked about how we can help with this cost. Just send me an email and I can explain the details.
Q. Is there a laundry room for the property?
A. We have 2 community laundry rooms. The new Whirlpool washers and dryers just arrived!
