While April Home Sales Equal Those in the Prior Year, Strong Demand Continues for Homes Priced Between $2 Million and $3 Million

 
  • NELA and Foothill Communities see jump in higher-priced sales
  • Overall sales surged in Malibu and Beach Communities North and West LA, followed by Eastern Cities, Hollywood Hills and Greater Pasadena
  • Communities South of 210 continue to see weaker sales in 2018 as a result of slower demand from Chinese buyers. Mid-City also seeing weaker sales in 2018 so far
