Coco 's LA Condo Lifestyle Blog

     I believe in mentoring.  Having a mentor or coach is something almost anyone can benefit from.  Of course, it's important to have the right mentor.  The proper mentor is someone you respect, someone what has proven expertise in the arena in which you are striving to succeed. Having a mentor helps you to have clearly defined, achievable, measurable goals. 

     More important than anything else a mentor provides built in accountability.  If you have to be accountable for taking steps to accomplish a goal you are much more likely to succeed.  Human nature being what it is, it's much harder to face someone you respect and tell them you didn't get something done than it is to actually do it.  Whatever "it" is.

     If there is an area in your life that you are struggling with, or simply want to get "to the next level" consider getting a mentor.  If you are enjoying the fruits of your labors, consider passing it on to someone up and coming.  Mentoring, on both sides can be very rewarding.

     I love words, especially when they inspire.  There are a lot of words that could be used to describe a good real estate professional.  There are significantly fewer to describe a great real estate professional.  One of my favorites is tenacious.  All great real estate professionals are tenacious.

     Tenacious; adjective - persistent in maintaining, adhering to, or seeking something valued or desired. Synonyms: Strong, Courageous.  It sounds ridiculously over simplified but when you get down to it, this is a business about showing up and being tenacious.  Of course there are other elements to being successful, being knowledgable, a good listener, having a sense of humor, etc.  But haven't we all known someone who had those other qualities and no tenacity.  They don't succeed.  You can't succeed without tenacity. 

     Be tenacious!  Be a problem solver, be the person who always follows through no matter what. Remove "quit" and "can't" from your vocabulary and be amazed at the difference in your professional life. Be tenacious!

     You want it all.  Why shouldn't you have it all?  Imagine living in complete luxury, mere moments from your office.  Imagine your daily commute consisting of brisk walk through a gorgeous garden and past your favorite fine dinning restaurant.  You live in Los Angeles, is that possible?  Absolutely! A newly developing property called The New Century, promises all that and more. The New Century Plan offers Angelinos the ideal location to work, play and live in the lap of luxury.

     The site of The New Century formerly encompassed two aging office buildings at 1801 Avenue of the Stars and 1930 Century Park West.  When completed the new complex will be a state-of-the-art urban center, showcasing world class dinning and shopping, ample parking and a tower featuring 260 luxury condominiums.

     Included in the 8 acre plan are central plazas, a variety of meeting places and exquisitely lush landscaping.  The New Century's central location and easy access to the transit center at Constellation guarantees its prominent status as a hub of luxurious metro living.

     Buying a condominium is slightly different than a detached home purchase.  When you buy a condo you aren't just purchasing a property, you are buying a lifestyle.  In today's market, condominium communities are offering more and more amenities designed to attract home owners.  These amenities range from heated lap pools to temperature controlled wine storage, from 24 hour guarded parking to 24 hour concierge service. So who is right for the condo lifestyle?

     An obvious candidate for the condo lifestyle is someone who is single and looking to make their first real estate investment.  A condo offers a lower entry price and freedom from having to deal with maintenance issues. For these reasons, the condo lifestyle is also ideal for small families, just starting out.  One of the benefits of a condo lifestyle is being centrally located and having easy access to cultural events. Additionally a condo offers opportunities to meet and gather with other people without having to entertain from your own home.  A condo is a great solution for retirees who want to enjoy an amenity rich lifestyle without the cares of caring for a larger property.  And of course the condo lifestyle is perfect for the metro minded wealthy who understand the benefits of luxury living in the heart of a buzzing metropolis.

     Here on the Westside of Los Angeles we have condominium communities to match anyone's tastes and sensibilities. From starter homes to 5,000 plus square foot condominium estates, it's all here. Check out the condo lifestyle and see what it has to offer you.
