With rates finally dropping and relief setting in for clients and real estate professionals alike, it’s easy to momentarily forget the challenges this industry has endured in the last year. But we dedicate our 3rd quarter results to these 25 real estate agents and teams who pushed through the resistance without any reprieve in sight. […]
This is the single most impressive absorption rate analysis we’ve published since we first started sharing our numbers in August 2022. Perhaps it was the market anticipating the federal interest rate drop. We’re finally below 5%! Or perhaps things really are just starting to swing in the buyer’s favor. Whatever the case, the dropping absorption […]
Featured image credit: Dave Proffer We’ve all heard horror stories of homeownership woe. A flooding upstairs bathroom crashing down into a home’s lower level. The spark of electrical wiring burning down a dream. Unseen black mold contaminating everything it touches. But you’ve heard of nothing quite like what’s happening right now in the coastal community […]
It’s been a tough time for real estate professionals. The industry is just beginning to adjust to the NAR ruling that left real estate in upheaval, completely changing the way professionals addressed representation for their clients. But the wake of that ruling could be a cakewalk compared to what’s on the horizon. Earlier this year, […]
August 2024 was a great month for home buyers according to our absorption rate stats. While it wasn’t one of those months with a near-unanimous pull toward the buyer’s favor, the surges were (mostly) modest. And the drops tended to be much more significant, plunging certain communities into absorption rate depths we haven’t seen in […]

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 […]
Featured image credit: Ken Lund You need to sparkle pretty darn brightly to be the shiniest of mansions in Las Vegas. But most Vegas natives would agree that Casa de Shenandoah fits the bill. In fact, it’s arguably the most well-known home in the Vegas area. Yes, even more recognized than other Las Vegas Home […]
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. […]
