Yo, Santa Clarita Valley, it's August 1st, 2025, and the housing market's popping off like a 90s mixtape! I'm Connor MacIvor, your First Responder Realtor who traded LAPD sirens for sold signs. Inventory's up 20% with 807 homes—Valencia, Saugus, Canyon Country, you name it. But hold up: sellers are stuck in golden handcuffs (2-3% rates—ouch!), and mortgage rates are chilling at 6-7%. Buyers, snag deals on older listings. Sellers, pre-inspect to shine. Those “cash for homes” sharks? They're lowballing $50K-$60K under market. Don't fall for it! New builds? Watch for Mello-Roos taxes—$10K extra on a million-dollar pad? No thanks. As a former cop, I smell BS a mile away and bring honor to every deal. Ready to jump in? Watch my full breakdown:https://youtu.be/Hw2EtdRZ834Dive deeper into the market surge:https://www.santaclaritaopenhouses.com/shocking-surge-in-santa-clarita-real-estate-inventory-is-now-the-time-to-buyBook a free Zoom with me at 661-888-4983 or https://ZoomMeSCV.com.

It's Connor MacIvor, your first-responder-turned-realtor, here with a tell-it-like-it-is guide on what to do when your real estate agent's letting you down. As of July 31, 2025, our market's buzzing with 807 active listings – up nine from yesterday – and 108 price changes last week alone (check the data at https://www.santaclaritaopenhouses.com/santa-clarita-market-report). That means opportunity, but only if you've got the right agent in your corner.Ever feel like your agent's heart is blacker than a moonless night in Canyon Country? Maybe they promised quick sales or dream homes but delivered nothing but excuses. I've been there – not as a shady realtor, but as an LAPD officer dealing with high-stakes accountability. In this video, I'm spilling the tea on how to fire your agent without losing your cool (or your deposit). From documenting issues via email to escalating to the Southland Regional Association of Realtors (SRAR), I've got your back. Plus, I'll show you how to spot “mistakes of the heart” (intentional BS) versus “mistakes of the mind” (fixable errors).Why care? Santa Clarita's market is balanced – new listings match escrows, but stale listings (60+ days) are ripe for deals (hunt them at https://www.santaclaritaopenhouses.com/advanced-search). Don't let a bad agent tank your shot at a Valencia pool home or a Saugus 55+ gem. I'll share pro tips from my cop days: always have a paper trail, know the pecking order (agent, brokerYoutube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

They always say, you can't choose your sister, but I would choose mine. - Linda Wong Chu If you are ever visiting the Boston area and you need a hot tip for the best Chinese food around, the family-owned Kowloon is the place to go! We're on the road to Saugus, Massachusetts, for this episode, and you better believe there will be a takeout bag of Kowloon delishiousness beside me in the passenger seat! Purchased by William & Madeline Wong in 1958, the Kowloon was first named the Mandarin and was owned by Madeline's parents. The restaurant was small with seating for about 40 customers, but the Wongs had big ideas and their vision would catapult the Kowloon to legendary status with 1200 seats, five themed rooms, and the distinction of being one of the premier multi-concept dining establishments in the United States. What's it like to grow up in the hard-working Wong family? Former school teacher Linda Wong is the eldest of the six children, and in this interview, she and her little sister Lisa who manages the Maui Restaurant in Brockton, Massachusetts sit down in the restaurant that shaped them to share not only the success story of their grandparents and parents, but the ingredients that make up the perfect formula for achievement: Says Lisa: “I used to believe that success meant work, work, work, work, work. Now, I know that you have to have a really happy family life to be successful.“ #chineserestaurant #entrepreneur #sisters #asianculture #family

Hey everybody, welcome to the latest edition of our Santa Clarita Real Estate Update for April 2025! I'm Connor with Honor, your First Responder Realtor at SantaClaritaOpenHouses.com, here to give you the inside scoop on what's happening in our local market. Whether you're buying, selling, or simply keeping an eye on trends, this update's got you covered.First off, let's talk inventory. We're seeing over 620 active residential listings across the Santa Clarita Valley right now—spanning Valencia, Canyon Country, Saugus, Newhall, Stevenson Ranch, and Castaic. This upward trend started gaining momentum right at the start of spring. More homeowners are realizing this is a prime moment to sell, especially with stable interest rates hovering around five or six percent. That's opening up fantastic opportunities for buyers, too, who now have a wider selection to choose from.A key topic that keeps popping up is commissions—specifically, how much you should expect to pay your agent. The short answer: get it in writing. Make sure your agent sends you a clear breakdown of what they'll charge and exactly what they'll do for that fee, from professional staging and video tours to digital advertising and open houses. Cutting corners on commission might seem like a cost-saver, but remember: a well-marketed property can attract multiple offers and land you a significantly higher final price.On the buyer side, many folks are surprised to learn that some sellers are no longer paying the buyer's agent commission. Instead, buyers may need to handle it themselves. While this might feel like an extra expense, having an agent on your side is crucial—especially in negotiations. Think of it like going car shopping with a friend who knows the dealership inside out. It's worth every penny if they can steer you away from costly pitfalls or win you a better deal.Finally, if you're on the fence about selling, this might be the time. Even though buyers have more options now, our local economy remains strong, and demand is still outpacing supply in many price brackets. Don't get stuck waiting on the sidelines; do your due diligence, run a free market analysis, and explore your financing options if you're also looking to move up or downsize.And that's it for this month's real estate update! If you have any questions about buying, selling, or how commissions work here in Santa Clarita, reach out via SantaClaritaOpenHouses.com or call 661-400-1720.

On July 1, 1998, at nearly 1 p.m., a call came into the 911 emergency call center to report a fire at her home on Cherry Creek Drive in Saugus, California. The woman caller had a dry, matter-of-fact tone “The house is all smoke.” The dispatcher asked if the house was still smoking and the woman said “No, not now, it's over.” She then went on to say “We had a fire last night. I woke up and everything was black.” The dispatcher in a bit of confusion confirms what she heard. “You had a fire last night?”Caller: “Uh-huh”Dispatcher: “And you just woke up?”Caller: “Yes”Dispatcher: “You were sleeping the whole time during the fire?”Caller: “Yeah, I assume”When responders arrived, they found that the fire had already been extinguished for some time. Sandi Nieves, who called first responders, was covered in soot and was waiting in the living room on the couch along with her 14-year-old son, David who also had soot on him. Both of them were eating cookies and acting bizarrely. David was zoning out watching TV. Sandi told the paramedics that everything was fine and they didn't need to be there. What authorities would discover was a grisly crime that no one could have ever imagined.Join Jen and Cam on this episode of Our True Crime Podcast entitled ‘Sleep My Babies: Sandi Nieves.'Listener Discretion by Edward October @octoberpodVHSMusic by our E.P.
