“I am so proud of the City of West Hollywood.  Of all the Los Angeles regional townships, West Hollywood has been visionary in its development plan for the beautification of the famous Sunset Strip retail & restaurant locations. Impressive world-class hotels have located here. Parks and broad avenues have been created. West Hollywood is a joy.” - Ernie Carswell, West Hollywood, CA.

"Malibu is still one of the most sought after locations in the world. I believe that prices will continue to increase as inventory is low. In 2020 we saw an influx of people moving to Malibu and I believe that people who have moved here have realized what an incredible place Malibu is." - Jeff Chertow, Malibu, CA.

“Montecito has seen exceptionally strong sales volumes in 2020 as the urban flight into our local communities continues. This, combined with increased Buyer activity from local homeowners, is expected to continue in the early part of 2021 and I see no reason for it to be otherwise.” - Cristal Clarke, Montecito, CA.

“Based on what has been happening as we close out 2020, I fully expect the Pasadena market to continue to thrive into 2021. Our median price just broke 1M and we are still seeing tight inventory, which is leading to multiple offers on many transactions at every price point! There is an influx of people wanting to live in Pasadena from the more western areas of LA because buyers typically can get more space, more house for their money, and a fantastic overall quality of life, all while still being minutes to everything.” - Tim Durkovic, Pasadena, CA.

“November marked the 13^th consecutive month of very low inventory and it set an all-time record low of only 1.99 months of supply.  Buyers, especially from Los Angeles and San Francisco have created a record-breaking year in sales revenue in 2020.  I expect to see low supply and strong demand continue into 2021.” - Wendy Gragg, Santa Barbara, CA.

“I am anticipating that 2021 will be the best year ever for Luxury Real Estate in Southern California. Normally December is a relatively quiet month! However, the Joyce Rey team is currently negotiating five properties between five and $20 million, which is an extraordinary number at any time! Both hope and optimism are evident with vaccines on the horizon! An improving economy and renewed focus on the home environment will spur residential investments in 2021!” - Joyce Rey, Beverly Hills, CA.

“With the new year upon us, we expect a continuing robust market in the greater South Bay. Luckily, real estate here has been hot for both the buyer and the seller during the 2020 pandemic. This has been largely due to our area's desirability in which to live, low inventory, and minimal new construction." - Cindy Shearin, South Bay area, CA.

“The overall Corona del Mar market has seen a 32% increase in sales for 2020 vs. 2019.  The year over year growth in Corona del Mar can be attributed in part to pent up demand following the initial pause caused by Covid-19, migration from dense urban metro markets, i.e. NY, LA, SF, and historically low-interest rates.  The foregoing factors have placed pressure on the already strained inventory.  For 2021, it appears the current pace will continue, unless and until inventory and demand are more in equilibrium.” - Timothy Norman Tamura, Corona del Mar, CA.

"We anticipate seeing current trends continue with a slight rise in home sales and home prices in most Silicon Beach areas - such as Westchester, Mar Vista and Playa Del Rey. Playa Vista home sales should also maintain similar levels in 2021 although prices behave a bit differently in that market as home and condo prices are seeing decreases year over year." - Kris Zacuto, Silicon Beach, CA.

• Justin Alexander: Founder of the Alexander Group, with over $1.5 billion in sales over the past 3 years from Laguna Beach to Beverly Hills, CA

Watch the webinar below.

Highlight quotes from today's webinar:

Kris Zacuto: "As what everyone is saying of moving to bigger yards, people are leaving Playa Vista, even if just one zip code over. But what's interesting is we that are having a new group of people that are coming in. So it's not vacancies that we are seeing but rather a reshuffling, people leaving and coming... In this moment, it's more evident than ever that being an expert or specialist is a key takeaway... The broker to broker relationships are really important. That has been vital over the last couple of months."

Justin Alexander: "The overall sense is that people want to be anywhere they can be outdoors. If they can drive to the beach within 20 minutes, that's what they're looking for... The luxury real estate market in LA is not going to disappear, even with a pandemic... If someone comes to me and says they want to buy a house now, there is no waiting. Real estate is a top demand in LA... If you can be that little bit of light that gives someone perspective that things are going to stay strong in real estate, people will get through it. Inspire when you can."

Wendy Gragg: "The demand from LA is stronger than the supply we have available, and people are lining up and waiting... We had the highest number of pending sales in escrow in July ever, and that all is going to translate into closed sales, so I continue to anticipate seeing these kind of record-setting numbers... Santa Barbara is a small oceanfront community, so anything that a buyer is looking for, we have. You're within minutes to the beach and mountain hiking. We have wonderful weather and outdoor dining."

Dana Bambace: "We have been inundated with buyer demand since the end of April. We are a market where we would never see multiple offers or over asking, and now we are. The demand on the inventory is crazy.  I feel that we will continue to have demand through the Fall... When people found out that their kids were going to be remote learning, we got buyers coming in looking for compounds in Carmel. It has been a very interesting time, and I'm grateful. It's an community and I'm happy people want to choose it."

Anne-Britt Østlund: "I was telling my clients to just wait, that it would come back. I thought we had until the end of June, but it started right out the bat towards the end of May and we are breaking records. Total sales volume for this summer is up 92%... Because rates are so low, sellers are not accepting offers contingent on loans because they take too long. Even though the rates are so great, it's in the buyers' interest to offer cash... Buyers right now are the real deal. They are not wasting time."

The post Modern, Luxury Condo In Playa Vista, Presented By Kris Zacuto appeared first on Haute Residence by Haute Living.

Kris Zacuto brings a wealth of knowledge to Hilton & Hyland with over 10 years of experience in Luxury Estate Management. The work ethic he acquired during his time on the diamond has translated into his new career and made him one of the area’s hardest working agents. His personal philosophy is “hard work and integrity breed success”. With a proactive perspective, a background in luxury properties, an appreciation for discretion, and the utmost professionalism, Kris possesses all the skills necessary to anticipate client needs to provide excellent customer service, and results. Haute Residence caught up with Zacuto to discuss Playa Vista, CA and what trends we should expect to see this year.

How was the luxury market in 2019 compared to 2018?

The luxury market in Silicon Beach, specifically Playa Vista, Westchester, and Playa Del Rey showed similar results for Q4 2018 & Q4 2019. While overall market trends showed some downward movement throughout 2019, Silicon Beach remained mostly consistent as it relates to the Luxury Market. Closed sales and median sales price actually showed increases in comparing Q4 2018 - 2019 with these areas combined. The main reason for this is that while we may have seen some market trends downward on the macro level, buyer interest and inventory in the Silicon Beach area did not waiver.

What are your projections for the value of properties and market conditions in Silicon Beach in 2020?

While the upcoming election and overall political landscape will have a major effect on every industry, we anticipate seeing the Silicon Beach area continue to thrive based primarily on buyer demand. Overall the Silicon Beach market will remain healthy in 2020, where buyers will continue to show interest and desire to be in Silicon Beach. Even with the potential for lower levels of inventory as the year goes on, the demand will continue to carry to the market.

Are there any new condos or developments in Silicon Beach that will be completed soon in 2020?

The last remaining Single Family Development in Playa Vista, Encore by Taylor Morrison, consists of 14 SFR starting the $3M range. These luxury homes will consist of 3 levels and approximately 3500 sqft. Currently, Encore is anticipated to be completed toward the end of 2020. This development is based on the Collection Residence 2 concept introduced by Brookfield Residential in 2018.

Any new restaurants or shopping centers in Silicon Beach that have recently opened up that you would recommend?

Runway Playa Vista is undergoing a massive approximately $9M renovation in the heart of Silicon Beach. Runway is home to mixed-use retail, residential, and office space including Cinemark Theatres, Whole Foods Market, and Cedars-Sinai to name a few. The renovations will create an attractive walkable destination, removing driving lanes and vehicle access to this Playa Vista attraction. New restaurants in the area include Conference Room, a swanky lounge on the commercial side of Playa Vista focused on entertainment, a specially curated menu, and an impressive wine list. Bull & Butterfly, a modern California steakhouse, is also planning to open in 2020 at Runway Playa Vista.

What is your take on the current mortgage rates? Do you project these rates to go up or down in 2020 and why do you think this?

Mortgage rates are currently at historically low rates, and with recent news of world events - such as the Coronavirus outbreak - we are seeing mortgage rates to dip lower. With the news currently fueling the bond markets and driving mortgage rates lower, we anticipate an increase in buyer activity in
Silicon Beach this winter and do not see a major change for the coming months.

Anything else you would like us to know in terms of Silicon Beach, as we head into 2020?

Silicon Beach has experienced an incredible past few years emerging as a luxury real estate market in Southern California. We expect to see Silicon Beach continue to behave as one of the more attractive markets in the Southern California Beach Cities / Beach City Adjacent. Major companies such as Google,
Yahoo, The Honest Company, YouTube have set established roots in Playa Vista, and with Nike taking up office space in 2020, we expect to see the commercial real estate scene to remain hot in 2020.

Haute Residence caught up with Zacuto to discuss Playa Vista, CA and what makes it so special

Where in Los Angeles is Playa Vista?

Playa Vista is in West Los Angeles, adjacent to both the LAX airport & the beach. It neighbors Playa Del Rey, Marina Del Rey, Loyola Marymount University in Westchester, and Del Rey. Playa Vista's location is attractive as its centrally located to many LA hot spots - DTLA, Manhattan Beach, Santa Monica, and Beverly Hills are all somewhat equal short drives.

How did that area come to be?

It was introduced as community development consisting of affordable and luxury housing, commercial/office spaces, and a variety of parks and amenities. Over the years, the commercial activity exploded with companies such as Google, Facebook LA, The Honest Company, and YouTube Space LA, to name a few. This expansion was accompanied by an increase in luxury offerings including exclusive three-unit condo buildings, to luxurious three-level single-family homes up to 4500 sqft.

What makes Playa Vista so special to buyers?

Playa Vista is special as it offers multiple demographics a unique experience in West LA. There is no comparison in LA where a neighborhood is both a developed planned community and remains central to other LA attractions. During the day residents have the ability to walk to Whole Foods, the pool/fitness center, or Town Center for a variety of retail offerings. At night they can choose to stay local at one of the many restaurants or take 20 minutes to drive into Downtown LA or Hollywood for the evening.

How is Playa Vista reacting to some of the market shifts?

The Playa Vista market is a bit of a submarket in LA. In a macro sense, Playa Vista is seeing longer Days on Market, and more price reductions than 6 months ago. However, it remains an incredibly desirable area to break into, as reinforced by the strong condo market. Properties Under $1M are acting relatively normal with only a slight uptick in Days on Market. Properties from $1.5M - $4M are feeling more of a shift, as buyers are being more patient, and allowing properties priced over market value to either go unsold or incur a price reduction.

Why did you decide to live in Playa Vista?

I've lived in the general area for many years - I attended St Bernard's High School in Playa Del Rey and graduated from Loyola Marymount University in Westchester. My family moved from Playa Del Rey, which we love, to Playa Vista when were having our 2nd child. The attraction of 29 parks, grocery stores, dry cleaners, nail salons, restaurants and more - all walking distance in a luxuriously developed community was the driving force. We live, work, and play in Playa Vista - but still get our much needed nights out in Manhattan Beach!
