hi this is Mike Bjorkman, thanks so much for tuning in to SCVTV and our segment Minute
with Mike. today i'm proud to have Kelly and Darrin Privett uh... on the show
today they're
a local Santa Clarita family and a lot of people know when we talk about luxury
property uh... many folks don't understand that Santa Clarita really does offer a
wide range of homes available for families and i wanted to talk to them a
little bit
Kelly here, she's been an actress since she was eighty years old. you might know her from
baywatch, california dreams and ripley's believe it or not, believe it or not.
so we're really proud to have her in here and her fantastic husband is Darrin
Privett he's a ah... urgency room doctor here local at Henry Mayo so they
could and have the option to go anywhere in southern california for work and i
just wanted to talk to you guys a little bit welcome by the way uh... Thanks for having us.
No problem... Kelly, why don't you talk to us a little bit about what Santa Clarita has to
offer that you felt was important
well i have to start by saying that i grew up here so having an opportunity
to come home
and to raise my family in a community that i hold very dear was really important
to me but
i also, like you said, we really could have gone anywhere with my business being
obviously in hollywood would have been right in the middle of everything, he works out here, so
we compromised and we chose out here umm... it's so easy for me to get in and he's
so close to work. but we mostly chose out here because it's such an amazing place
to raise kids
now when you were looking at different communities to live in obviously we have
things like westridge, sand canyon, placerita canyon,
uh...hasley canyon
when you were looking was there anything specific that drew you to one area
verses another uh...
we both really wanted to have property uh... and their is a lot of that out here. you
can't find that over the hill or even five minutes from here on the freeway. so
i know for him...i think the value in not only the homes that you can get the
value in the property
and the type of uh... properties that are available out here, there are some
very nice
custom
high-end properties if you're looking for that
Santa Clarita Valley has some great options for you, so...
so many of my clients, we work with athletes and uh... people in your
industry
things of that nature ceos, business owners, they, when we talk to them
coming from over the hill,
they don't realize what Santa Clarita has to offer, so it is my job
as a real estate agent out here to promote our area and really show people what's going on.
Darrin, i know you are into sports. how do you feel about Santa Clarita's
sports programs? and i think you were a coach for quite a while. you want
to give us a little bit of a... well like Kelly mentioned, we
were in new york city so when we were moving back to california we could have moved
anywhere.
but it was important for us, we have small children ourselves, so we wanted to be in a
community
that not only provided a great education with the public school systems
that they have here, but also
as far as like community programs and sports activities.
and one of the things that the Santa Clarita Valley has is,
on multiple levels of not only on the committee level with the different sports
organizations but the high school levels,
very competitive. and there are a lot of programs out there specifically
that not only met our education priorities but that also
for our kids to be involved in sports. and the overall community feel. it's just
a great environment
to raise a family for family values
safety
uh... and the accessibility to everything that the that the Santa Clarita Valley has.
...Right, and i've seen you guys walking down the streets with your family, so obviously i know you feel safe.
uh...
one other thing i wanted to talk about
a lot of my clients, as i said, they're not aware of what Santa Clarita
has to offer
and so what what what we tell the the hollywood moms out there that don't know
about Santa Clarita, what would you say...hey
we're look for this...
...I would say
that it is just a hop, skip, and a jump away from hollywood. i've literally uh...
yesterday i got down to twelve minutes. I don't know if I should say that out loud and... of course... but no, it's
really close and into being able to come away and take a breath from hollywood is
so nice and the amount of "living" that we are allowed to have here that that
living here at provides for us is so worth it to just be just that much outside
of Hollywood. i just, i wouldn't have any other way.
...and i really appreciate you guys come on today. ...absolutely... a lot of our clients they
demand a lot more anonymity,
or anonymous, let's say
we're very private their clients obviously
but if you are watching out there and you would like to contact someone of my
past clients, I do have permission.
and do have written testimonials and video testimonials from others uh... if
you would like to see those as you can give me a call anytime. is there anything else
you guys wanna to add about how wonderful Santa Clarita is?
uh...
just that i what i wouldn't live anywhere else and i think it has everything you need
right here and it's perfect for a family. ...that's awesome
and Darrin, hopefully
everybody who's watching doesn't have to see you... ...you don't want to see me... ...but if they do we know
...we'll take care of you... ...they know they're in really good hands. and again, we really appreciate it guys. thanks well
