Joseph graduated from UCLA as a Mortgage Processor. After being out in the field, he started to become interested in appraising. He used to work with an appraiser in a start-up partnership who encouraged and persuaded him to start the business with him. Joseph has been appraising since 1989 and has been a certified appraiser since 1993. He enjoys viewing different properties and meeting new people every day. Joseph is always ready to take an order, no matter what. Recently, he took a request from a local lender to appraise a home 150 miles away due to the original appraiser having to attend a funeral to ensure the file closed on time.
Los Angeles is the second largest city in America and is renowned for many reasons. It is home to some of the most popular theme parks and beaches and is one of the entertainment capitals of the world. The weather is also gorgeous in LA, rarely dipping below 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
There has been a lot of spot development of the small/large condominium and apartment complexes over the past year on limited vacant parcels. Many of the surrounding cities are allowing homeowners to convert existing garages to accessory dwelling units and/or rebuild ADU’s on SFRs. The current median home price in Los Angeles is in the mid 700’s – an increase of 15-20% from last year.
