We try to refrain from discussing politics on the JohnHart Real Estate blog, but in an election year, it’s almost unavoidable. But we think it’s pretty clear which side we’re supporting anyway. After all, Jon Barrist is one of our highly talented and insightful Palm Springs agents. We’re of course talking about the recent election […]
At first glance, July seemed like a rebound month for LA’s absorption rates (with a few outliers, of course). But what’s not obvious by simply looking at the statistics is that we sold more homes in nearly every market in July than we did in June. Summertime is often one of the hottest times for […]
As other brokerages continue to scale back in the face of industry changes, JohnHart Real Estate moves ahead in leaps and bounds. Perhaps that has never been more evident than in our latest acquisition. Finding opportunity in another brokerage’s loss, JohnHart’s newest addition to the family urged us to branch into the Monrovia housing market. […]
Is it hot enough out there for you? We’re not talking about summer heat. We’re talking about the kind of heat that could only come from a year this vicious. The heat that comes from the friction of agents being ground against the most resistance many of us have ever felt in our entire careers. […]
We’ve seen the summer favor buyers before, but not quite like in June this year. The last time we even got close to a near-universal absorption rate drop like we saw last month was in July 2023. Back then, 10 of our 12 neighborhoods dropped closer to the buyer’s favor. But in June 2024, only […]

We ended April’s absorption rate analysis with a prescient statement: “We did see a higher number of houses for sale in Los Angeles hitting the market in April. If that trend continues, we may see […]
In a year when so many agents have thrown in the towel, balking at a market unforgiving of even the slightest misstep, a lucky 13 JohnHart real estate agents secured spots on the prestigious RealTrends America’s Best Real Estate Agents list for 2024. As the name suggests, these aren’t just the best real estate agents […]
April 2024 brings more of that same energy we saw in March as the industry shakes off the accumulated frost of the holiday hibernation. A lot of our communities continued to climb further into the seller’s market, though with less severity. One neighborhood really ingratiated itself to sellers with a double-digit surge. But it was […]
Glendora real estate is getting redefined. JohnHart Real Estate proudly opened its much-anticipated Glendora office with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday, April 25, inviting the community to get a first look at an office that visually matches our unconventional real estate ethos. Innovation has always been second nature at JohnHart. But our Glendora office created […]
Our founder, broker, and CEO Harout Keuroghlian said it best: “Making money in real estate in the last 10 years was like going to the beach, throwing a rock into the water, and then being proud of hitting the water.” Many real estate agents will need to be reminded of this over the coming months.
