Last month, we talked about the calm before the storm. Well, we wouldn’t ring the alarms just yet, but November gave us a bit more drama than October with some decent rises and falls across the Greater Los Angeles area. It’s a surprising amount of absorption rate activity for a time when the market is […]
Featured Image Credit: LV Wedding Connection Up until now, our Home Spotlight blog series has covered properties that still exist. Unfortunately, we can’t say the same for the subject of this Home Spotlight… the granddaddy of all Las Vegas mansions: Hartland Mansion. Up until 2022, it was a looming piece of vibrant Las Vegas history. […]
Featured image credit: vagueonthehow “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…” No, that’s not exactly right. “We were somewhere around LA on the edge of downtown when the drugs began to take hold.” Interesting, but no – still not it. “The man in black fled across the city, and the […]
While the real estate industry is still reeling from a federal jury’s decision to rule against the National Association of Realtors, October’s absorption rates may be feeling like the calm before the storm.

With the exception of two of our neighborhoods, all areas dropped closer to a buyer’s market this month or simply treaded water. And of the two that moved further into […]
Over the last five or so years, every Angeleno has experienced that moment when, frantically searching for street parking, they turn onto a stretch of road completely saturated with recreational vehicles, better known as RVs. For several reasons, these unauthorized RV camps have become a precarious facet of life in LA. Many of these permanent […]

If you’ve been paying attention (but not paying close enough attention), you’ll be mistaking today’s home for one we covered last year: The Bob Hope House.
