Larry Boren grew up in Southern California, where he received his teaching credentials from Long Beach State in health. Before beginning his real estate business, Larry taught high school for 10 years. Larry is married and has one son. 

Larry’s talk focused on how real estate has changed over the last 10 years, especially in the Long Beach area. Larry has noticed that consumers turn first to internet sites, like Zillow and Purple Bricks, and have made seeking out a personal real estate broker their 2nd or 3rd choice. With the housing market bouncing back from the recession, more people have become real estate agents, which has added an influx of realtor choices to the field. Larry believes that it is beneficial to go with a much more experienced real estate company that will guide you through all the steps, including finding the right lender to buying and improving probate homes. Larry believes that going with instant internet answer isn’t always good for the client’s future and letting a seasoned broker help plan your future real estate investments could help keep costs down, like creating a binder that will keep cost of title charges down if you plan to sell the home in a few years. 

Additionally, Larry went over the most recent tax changes to the real estate market, including 1031 exchange, reverse exchange and Proposition 13, but as with any tax changes it will vary on any real estate situation.
