A top producer with Sotheby’s International Realty, Jodi knows finance, rules, regulations, procedures and methods. She is accurate, knowledgeable, timely and aware of how government shapes the cities of Southern California.

Jodi is born in Brooklyn, raised in and around Manhattan – the family business was marketing, Madison Avenue style. Childhood math quiz questions calculated demographic and psychographic percentages or analyzed the allocation of adverting dollars. Word games were for devising slogans.

An honors graduate from the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism at Arizona State University, Jodi moved to California to achieve her goal of living by the beach with a palm tree and a hibiscus bush in her yard.
She thrived as an entrepreneur in the entertainment, media and marketing industries. One of her books, “Marking and Marketing Music,” is in second edition.

“My marketing and communication skills have proven to be a true gift when it comes to promoting real estate,” observes Jodi. “And I am consistently able to get an exceptionally high price per square foot for my sellers.”

Discipline (Jodi holds a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do), organization, motivation, excellent communication skills and knowing & satisfying the needs of her clients have been her essentials for running a successful business. A passion for investment real estate explains her emphasis in asset-yielding properties.

    And just today the New York Post was raving how real estate prices had gone up more than 20% in the past year. The New York Post – entertainment yes…news value questionable.

  • COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE
    By June 29, 2008 - 12:06am

    COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE CONDITIONS VARIED FROM AREA TO AREA Commercial real estate conditions are uneven across the country and vary notably in some areas, according to a commercial real estate update and forecast presented here at the National Association of REALTORS® Midyear Legislative Meetings & Trade Expo. During the first three quarters of 2007, commercial real estate investment was in excess of $100 billion per quarter. In the first quarter of 2008 it slowed to the range of $35 billion to 38 billion. In analyzing NAR’s Commercial Leading Indicator for Brokerage Activity, NAR Chief Economist Lawrence Yun said to expect broadly slower net absorption for industrial space. “I see a topping off in commercial building construction, and a decline in private non-residential construction spending. We project generally softer rent growth in commercial real estate, and modestly lower business opportunities in most market areas for commercial practitioners. As in the residential sector, areas with strong job growth are doing fairly well.” Overall job gains are slowing, but retail employment has been weak since the beginning of this year, construction jobs have been trending down since the beginning of last year, and manufacturing jobs have been trending down since the start of the decade, Yun noted. “On the other hand, professional business service jobs have been rising since the middle of 2003, and that supports demand in the office market. Wholesale trade jobs have trended up since the middle of 2004, reflecting stronger international trade conditions. “Commercial fundamentals are good, but investment has been hurt by the credit crunch,” he noted, reiterated heavily reported information that “investment in the commercial sectors decelerated in the first quarter after setting a record in 2007.” Concluded Yun, “Altogether, I don’t expect a recession, but rather a period of slow economic growth that should improve in the second half of this year.” ** http://www.realtor.org/press_room/news_releases/2008/mixed_commercial_real_estate?&WT.mc_t=LS052108&WT.mc_n=Comm http://www.socalofficerealestateblog.com/?p=205 Jodi Summers Sotheby’s International Realty, Santa Monica jodi@jodisummers.com current listing websites http://www.2542manchesterblvd.jodisummers.com/ http://www.2340manchesterblvd.jodisummers.com/ http://www.3619motorave.jodisummers.com/ http://www.3760motorave.jodisummers.com/ http://www.1740OceanParkBlvd.jodisummers.com blogs + http://www.SoCalInvestmentRealEstate.com http://www.SoCalIndustrialRealEstateBlog.com http://www.SoCalOfficeRealEstateBlog.com http://www.SoCalMultiUnitRealEstateBlog.com http://www.SoCalGreenRealEstateBlog.com http://www.SantaMonicaLandmarks.com http://www.SantaMonicaPropertyBlog.com ** Your ability to create Is based on your ability to choose. - Virginia Satir and Anne Banm
