By now, you have probably heard about the class action lawsuit that resulted in the widely publicized 2024 NAR Settlement. These changes are still evolving, however, now that the dust has settled we wanted to address the changes and their impact on real estate agents, sellers, and buyers. In Part 1, we focus on the implications for Home Sellers: what has changed, and what hasn't. | To read the NAR Home Seller summary, visit: bit.ly/NARSelling
In this mega-market update, Tony and Justin recap 2024 thus far, compare it with the sales last year, and analyze the Summer real estate market trends in Malibu. Spoiler alert, it's not as bad as you've heard and several segments are outperforming last year.
In our first Malibu local business spotlight, we are honored to feature Dane Skophammer, founder of Iron Sand Malibu and crafter of incredible custom knives! Born and raised on the same street as his current workshop, Dane has carved out a nitch of his own, forging knives that are both beautiful and functional. From meat cleavers to dive knives and everything in between, Iron Sand Malibu creates one-of-a-kind pieces of art meant to be handed down for generations. In this episode, we discuss Dane's beginnings as a chef, his customized hands-on process, and much more! Tune into our YouTube channel for a tour of his workshop. | Visit ironsandmalibu.com to learn more or call Dane at (310) 266-8273 to get your custom knife started.
What's going on with mortgage rates? In this episode, we called our friend Grant Sedlak at Origin Point for an update on the lending world. 2024 began with the promise of three rate cuts. Nearly halfway through the year, we are now hoping for just one rate cut as the country battles inflation. Grant elaborates on the planned rate cuts, current mortgage rates, what buyers in Malibu will need to put down on a home depending on the price point, and more! | Grant Sedlak is Vice President of Mortgage Lending at Origin Point and can be reached at 310.924.0777
For the first time, Tony finds himself in the shoes of a seller. In preparing to sell one of his family beach homes, he went through the pre-listing preparation, questions, and emotions that many of our clients experience with every sale. In this episode, Tony, Justin, and Nikki discuss what he has learned through the process, the approach from initial evaluation to doing work, and his strategy utilizing the Private Exclusive "Coming Soon" platform that Compass has pioneered. | For a pre-listing home evaluation and market strategy in Malibu and beyond, please get in touch!

In this episode, we are joined by co-founder of The Mark & Grether Group and land specialist, Russell Grether, for a dive into the complex world of Malibu land. Land in the Malibu coastal zone is not as simple as it would appear, and having a basic understanding of the factors that make a lot desirable is essential for any buyer or seller. We get into key attributes to look for, pricing, ESHA, and more! | Each parcel in Malibu offers unique attributes. If you would like help evaluating a specific property, please get in touch with our team at (310) 230-5771 or [email protected].

In this episode, we are joined by local legend and fellow Compass agent, David Carter, to dive into the history and an insider's guide to Paradise Cove! One of Malibu's most iconic areas, the Cove is steeped in rich history. We dicsuss it's origins as a Chumash Village, later becoming a fishing community based around the famed pier, and finally it's current status as the most desirable mobile home park in the entire Country. | For more information David and the Carter family business, visit www.malibumobilehomes.com
Our yearly look-back at the year prior is here! And, since it's a little late, we've gone big. In the first segment, we review national trends and data of what was widely considered an unattractive real estate market throughout the country. After the break, we dive into Malibu's 2023 numbers, compare them to the booming years prior, and make our predictions for 2024.
We are proud to be back in the studio and recording our 6th season of the Malibu Podcast. 2024 has begun with a few hard things in Malibu including the passing of several hometown heroes, lots of rain, and a few landslides. What began as an introduction became a preamble, but we'll be back soon with a full 2023 real estate recap, a tribute to Matt Rapf, and more episodes of The People's History of Malibu.
