We’re still waiting on flying cars, but many of the futuristic luxuries promised to us over the last few decades are now just part of our daily lives. Take the smart home for instance. It’s pretty much the “house of the future”… except we have it today. Ten years ago, you wouldn’t see anything like […]
Rent control in Los Angeles is confusing people; especially with an ongoing state of emergency gripping the city. We witnessed this first hand when we attended the Los Angeles Housing Department’s (LAHD) Wednesday, August 24th webinar. The meeting was primarily packed with landlords as baffled as they were angry. Despite his succinct responses, host Agassi […]
Over the last few decades, we’ve seen leaps in technology that completely redefined the world as we know it. It stands to reason that technology capable of redefining our global community could be useful in redefining real estate.

When you sell your home, it can be tempting to gloss over that leaky plumbing your cousin “fixed.” But this isn’t Craigslist. And California Case Law declares that it’s a home seller’s legal obligation to disclose to the buyer any known material facts impacting a property’s value or desirability.

We recognize there’s an urgency to finding your dream home. Maybe you’re searching for your very first property. Maybe you’re ready for an upgrade. […]
In our industry, and America in general, fair housing is an unalienable right. That’s why it’s every agent’s responsibility to uphold these values with unimpeachable ethics. This isn’t just a social belief. It’s the law. At JohnHart, we strictly adhere to the Fair Housing and Discrimination Law. Even if this law weren’t in place, we’d […]
Recently, our CEO and founder Harout Keuroghlian gave us an in-depth look at what separates JohnHart from our peers. His blog explored highlights including an expert support staff, investment in agent growth, and an innovative approach to time management.
