Places to go, people to see

Thanks to the hundreds of real estate sugggestions from LA Land helping us search for a new home, here are the latest prospects...


11821 Wagner: 4/2 $789K- teeny, tiny yard and all of it is in front!

3900 Stoneview: 4/3 2440 sq.ft., pool, city view $989K- used up the entire yard for the pool- no room for swingset

9059 Carson: 4/2.5 $875K same problem as Wagner

3329 Sherbourne: Spanish,4 bdrm + guest house $999K- non permit rental unit in back, teensy yard, 1920's Spanish with bad re-muddling (no that isn't a typo) that removed the front door and replaced it with access from the driveway only.

9833 Vicar 4/3 $1.299M , MLS #: 07-215595

9066 Airdrome 6/2.5 1$.329M , MLS#07-201985

3121 Castle Heights 5/3 $1.315M MLS#07-203231

3159 Purdue 5/3 $1.495M MLS# 07-181923

2720 Dunleer Pl 3/2 $1.150M http://www.redfin.com/stingray/do/printable-listing?listing-id=1119343 - The yard is perfect! The house is too small. The price is laughable considering the current owner purchased in 2005 for $808,000 and the owner before purchased in 2000 for $420,000. Schools (up to high school anyways) are some of the best LAUSD has to offer.

Getting the FBI Background Check

Start now. No really. Even with the expediter ($79.99) and using Livescan to deliver the fingerprints ($39.99) turnaround time to get the FBI letter into my hands was 9 business days. Then Federal Express to Washington DC expediter to get the Apostille (otherwise 6-8 weeks). Arrives at expediter on Monday. Enters system on Tuesday AM, returned to expediter on Friday PM. Federal Express to Cyprus because the documents will not be in my hands before we fly there.  Even with the expeditors on both ends of the transaction, an FBI Background check can take 4 weeks. You cannot "save time" by having your background check sent directly to the expediter in Washington DC to be carried to the counter for the Apostille. They can't accept it. You need it sent to your attorney, who will forward it to you (or directly to the expediter), then to Washington, DC to the Department of State counter, then 3 -5 days later, back to the expediter and on to courier service. So TL;DR Start pro
