Karim Karmaly

Century Real Estate and Finance Inc.

Serving Los Angeles County, CA

The last few years have seen the market bounce back sharply as home prices hover at or near their all time highs. The pull back of 2007-08 which saw prices fall up to 50% seems to have been forgotten and it has again become a seller’s market. It is still a good environment to buy though. Interest rates remain low and if you know where to look, there are plenty of opportunities to buy your dream business, investment, buy, sell, refinance and home.

Hammer and Nails
Franchise

Available in California

We're building something legendary - Hammer & Nails: The Original All-in-one Men's Grooming membership. Men used to have two options: a rushed haircut at a strip-mall chain, or nothing at all. Hammer & Nails changed that in 2016, and we're still the only complete men's grooming franchise built around recurring memberships instead of one-off visits. It's dependable, recurring revenue from members who come back every month. Not a fluke of foot traffic and it's in a category that's only continuing to grow fast.
