Nicest house I saw this week that my clients didn't want to buy

This is 5908 Troost, North Hollywood.  It just came on the market for $469,500 and it's a 3+2, 1600 sf.  Yes, it's a flip, and a really nicely done one.  Check out the pictures on the mls.  It was the nicest house that I saw this week in the price range that my clients didn't want to buy.  I know what you're thinking: North Hollywood is sketchy.  But this area is improving pretty rapidly.  I sold a home just a half block away to clients last year, and they are deliriously happy there.  The North Hollywood police station is just down on Burbank Blvd. and "Noho" is turning into a fun destination.  True, the public schools aren't anything to write home about, but for those without children in this price range, this area -- and this house -- might be an excellent option.

Dilbeck Realtors is now part of the Real Living network of real estate companies

My company, Dilbeck Real Estate, is now Dilbeck Real Estate Real Living. The Real Living association has provided us with a pretty spectacular suite of on-line tools, and soon I'll be able to direct you to a super new mls search site. It's quick, easy, and you'll get more info on properties than you do on the regular public mls search. The site administrators are still de-bugging, so I hope to have this available to client-searchers next week.
