Along the lines of building condition, did you know that weather changes can cause buildings to move? It may sound alarming, but thats why the type of control joints used in the construction of your home is extremely important.

From what we've gathered, the quality of these control joints have been graded with a letter grade of C by the local assessor.

According to our sources, 5608 Fernwood Avenue sold most recently in Apr 7, 2022 for a total of $1,100,000. If you work out the math, that's approximately a cost of $433.41 per sqft. Before that, the property was also sold for $940,000 in Sep 28, 2017. There could be many factors that caused the property to sell at a higher price and increase in value.

During this assessment, the property's total value was estimated to be about $1,122,000. If we break it down further, the land itself was valued at $816,000. Improvements to the property, however, were assessed at a total of $306,000. The property's total assessed value has been marked as more than the total market value which is pretty atypical. If you're currently on the market shopping for a loan, then you've most likely encountered the two terms "interest rate" and "annual percentage rate (aka APR)". But do you know the difference between the two? Typically, APRS are higher than interest rates because they include most additional fees and one-time costs. As a result, it's important to look at both and if you notice that your APR is significantly higher, that might mean that too many additional fees are being charged.
