SANTA MONICA, PACIFIC PALISADES & BRENTWOOD REAL ESTATE MARKET STATISTICS

2011/10/17 – 3:37 pm

Here are this weeks numbers for West LA Real Estate Group’s market, Brentwood, Pacific Palisades and Santa Monica Real Estate Homes.

It shows the active and sales for the past 4 weeks in these key areas of the West SIde of Los Angeles and as I have been telling my clients this prime area has not been hit hard with a lot of distressed houses. This does not mean the areas has not been effected by the economic turndown and Real Estate Market collapse.

On the contrary I think the better deals are hear dealing with individuals and not banks. Unlike individual homeowners there is no emotions with a bank and they do there homework to see what the market value should be. So they are not giving anything away.

So if you are in the market to buy or sell in”The Palisades”, Santa Monica or Brentwood call the experts that live and work in the market. You can reach me at anytime at 310.505.5571 or of course you can also email me at bob_schmalz@wlaregroup.com

MARKET ACTIVITY FOR PACIFIC PALISADES, SANTA MONICA AND BRENTWOOD REAL ESTATE

2011/10/10 – 6:14 pm

Well we are now officially in the 4th quarter of 2011 and for many of us we already know what the quarter looks like. The market my company, West Los Angeles Real Estate Group, specializes in Brentwood, Pacific Palisades and Santa Monica Real Estate continues to be a micro-economic proposition. Santa Monica Houses are a neighborhood to neighborhood market with the differences from fast selling to slow and large inventory to small changing from one to the other. Pacific Palisades and Santa Monica Houses are showing the same fluctuations and I do not see this changing in the near future. Pacific Palisades Homes and the market there in general got hit the most during this down market and really good deals can be had. I also feel that Pacific Palisades Real Estate will rise the quickest when the market turns.

For more information on the Santa Monica, Pacific Palisades and Brentwood Real Estate markets call teh experst who live and work in the neighborhood. My phone number is 310.505.5571 and of course I will retrun your emails immediately and my address is bob_schmalz@wlaregroup.com

The following are the most recent numbers for the activity in this area and includes the last 4 weeks so we can see trends.

Santa Monica, Brentwood & Pacific Palisades – Market Trends : Week Ending 9.16.11

2011/09/17 – 4:08 pm

Time for the weekly numbers from West Los Angeles Real Estate Group, located in Brentwood on the west side of Los Angeles. I go over these numbers with my clients to see what is happening with inventory. As we all know inventory will effect the sales price and fine tuning these numbers for my clients specific neighborhoods help my clients in determining the direction of the market.

I keep a running total for 4 weeks so we can see if there is a trend building. I break out not only the neighborhoods they are interested in but house and lot sizes. By looking at how many actives there were on the market in there specific search 4 weeks ago and what is on the market today we can see inventory is flat, rising or getting smaller.
