About Me
I have been in the real estate for 20 years after finishing my MBA in Financial Management. My background in Finance and my understanding or different cultures and history (courtesy of my BA in Asian Studies) make me understand my client's needs both in the economic and sociological levels. Prior to working full time in Real Estate, I also taught in college for a couple of years so patience is a second character to me. I think our industry is the most misconstrued there is a lot of ignorance in what we are doing . I consider this job as almost paving the "Yellow Brick Road", the way where Dorothy can go back to Kansas complete with beautiful memories. My love of real estate is only superseded by my love of God, country(the USA) and my family.

And through peaks and valleys, I am here to serve my clients.

Need some help

Laarni G. Omingo answered:
Hi Mohammed,
The basis for county property tax is 1.25% of the purchase price. Before, counties are charging for a one time supplemental tax which, I am not sure how they will enforce since we have a declining value type of situation. This one time charge supplemental tax is based on 1% of the purchase price. I hope this helps. Is it time to find a good agent?

Why do so many agents lie?

Laarni G. Omingo answered:
Hi Sanjo...,
It is very unfortunate that you have such negative experience with agents. I would like to point out that in every basket, there is one or two rotten apples. You just happened to pick both of them. Our thrust as a Real Estate Agent is to give you our Fiduciary Duty and our allegiance to our client that will not cause you harm. I can only advice you to talk to some of the previous clients because Real Good Agents have a good following and their reputation is known in the area.
Best of Luck to you,

Laarni G. Omingo answered:
Hi Jeff,

Apparently you were given the wrong advice when the property was quit claimed to you because lenders ( and this has been their outstanding policy) require that the property is in your name for one year( it's called seasoning ) and you have to prove that you are also making the monthly payment for that 12 months. Right now, is there another child that your Mom can sell this property to? This is really ot the best of situation.

Laarni G. Omingo answered:
Hi Karen,

Eric is right. Please review your contract with your agent re your appraisal contingency and renegotiate your price with the seller reflecting the appraised value or else you have to come up with the difference between the loan based on the appraisal and your agreed-upon price with the seller.
Good Luck,
