So you want to buy a house?
You could go online.
Do your research.
Find the dream listing.
Go see it.
And get catfished.
Back to the drawing board –
more scheduling,
more viewings,
more, “This doesn’t even look like the photos.”
You could finally find one that does match the photos.
Then comes the offer.
The negotiations.
Stress rash? Yep, make that three.
And here’s…the paperwork.
More paperwork.
Wait…is that more paperwork?
Yup, never-ending paperwork.
It’s a lot.
But you don’t have to do it alone.
Because there’s an agent who’s a REALTOR® here to guide and help protect you as you find
the home that’s right for you.
REALTORS® are members of the National Association of REALTORS®.
Right by You.
“Zone 0” Regulations
California government agencies and citizens have been put on notice to take active steps to improve community hardening and wildfire mitigation. Governor Newsom’s recent executive order specifies the following:
- Directs the State Board of Forestry to accelerate its work to adopt regulations known as “Zone 0,” which will require an ember-resistant zone within 5 feet of structures located in the highest fire severity zones in the state.
- Tasks the Office of the State Fire Marshal with releasing updated Fire Hazard Severity Zone maps which will update building and local planning requirements for these communities statewide.
- Requires the Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) and the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) to work on improvements to wildfire response. | MORE >
