With artificial intelligence, we will fire the human news reporter, and just do the interview ourselves. Here are the ten news interview questions for notable L.A. Realtor® Corey Chambers: | VIDEO Can you share some insights into your journey as a real estate broker in Los Angeles and what inspired you to choose this profession? It started at the age of three, when my mother let me run free-range all around L.A. Area neighborhoods (Compton, Lynwood, Norwalk, Downey, Long Beach and Los Angeles) by myself as a young child. I survived. Now I’m running around Downtown and all over Southern California, helping home sellers, buyers, renters, landlords and investors to survive and thrive in any neighborhood, any market and any economic climate. How do you think the Los Angeles real estate market has evolved over the years, and what are some current trends you’ve observed? As the most diverse and creative city, Los Angeles has the third largest metropolitan economy in the world. The local real estate market added a large number of amazing conversion live/work lofts with tremendous character from 2000 to 2012. More recently, ADU Accessory Dwelling Units have become legalized, providing new opportunities for property owners to improve their long-term finances with rental income. Today, prices are lower than they were 5 months ago, giving home buyers and investors an improved opportunity to find just the right home, along with a special deal. What challenges and opportunities do you see in the LA real estate market, particularly in the downtown area? The biggest challenges of Downtown Los Angeles real estate include the current price drops, which could possibly dip into negative equity for some owners. Also, the homeless and mentally ill situation is not fully contained, contributing to crime that is higher than many other large cities. The relatively low downtown condo prices present an opportunity to pick up a bargain. As a real estate expert, can you share your thoughts on the impact of remote work and the pandemic on the residential and commercial property markets in Los Angeles? I’m doing more marketing and sales presentations by Zoom and phone, fewer in-person showings. I’ve always communicated my thoughts honestly on the exaggerated pandemic and the ignored downsides of lockdown and forced vaccines. I have also been careful to follow the rules presented by the state, local government, industry and home owners. Remote work is great, but there is not always a replacement for in-person meeting to build strong relationships. What advice do you have for first-time homebuyers or investors looking to enter the Los Angeles real estate market? The current market may offer new opportunities in the form of seller carry financing, and extra incentives for cash buyers. Sellers may also offer to help buyers with an interest rate buy-down, and may pay for buyer’s closing costs. How has technology changed the way you conduct business, and what role do you see technology playing in the future of the real estate industry? In my 12+ years of real estate, we’ve gone from tall stacks of paperwork to a nearly 100% paperless office. For each property listing that we do, my team provides one or more videos, so that prospective home buyers can see almost the entire home before driving to the property. The internet is empowering home buyers to find more properties themselves, while also helping tech-savvy real estate professionals to provide more information about properties online. The entire real estate process can be done faster, with better communication, saving a lot of time for everyone. Can you share a success story or a particularly memorable transaction that highlights your approach to helping clients find their dream home or investment property? Yes, It’s always a delight when we help a home seller to sell the property much faster, and for much more money. One seller was delighted to receive about $60,000 more than she was asking for, when we sold her Alta loft condo for her. What are some key factors that set you apart from other real estate brokers in the Los Angeles area, and how do you ensure your clients receive the best service possible?
