Well, we’ve sold Bart’s Bachelor Pad. Bittersweet as we had a lot of memories in that place.
We look forward to seeing the changes the new buyer makes to the home.
We’re doing a 1031 exchange with a rental property in mid-town Ventura. We have the remodel to look forward to now. Once finished we’ll start making memories here with new renters and new friendships.
Here’s a new law passed by the California Legislature that may impact you as a homeowner, home seller or home buyer.
Adjoining Owners Equally Responsible for Shared Fences and Boundaries
Adjoining landowners, with properties contiguous or in contact with each another, must share equally the responsibility for maintaining boundaries and monuments between them. Adjoining landowners are presumed to share an equal benefit from any fence dividing their properties, and unless otherwise agreed in writing, are presumed to be equally responsible for the reasonable costs of construction, maintenance, or necessary replacement of the fence.

Smoke Detectors Specifications Changed
Starting July 1, 2014, the State Fire Marshall will not approve a battery-operated smoke alarm unless it contains a non-replaceable, non-removable battery capable of powering the smoke alarm for at least 10 years.
Here’s a new law passed by the California Legislature that may impact you as a homeowner, home seller or home buyer.
Correction to Water-Conserving Plumbing Fixture Requirements
Existing law that erroneously requires, starting January 1, 2014, the replacement of noncompliant plumbing fixtures in a “commercial residential real property” when making certain building alterations has been corrected to apply to “commercial real property” instead. As background, water-conserving plumbing fixtures are required for single family residences starting in 2017 (unless the property is remodeled as specified on or after January 1, 2014) and multifamily residential real property and commercial real property starting in 2019 (unless property is remodeled as specified on or after January 1, 2014).
