Down on Downtown — Residents Leaving Southern California

BAD NEWS FOR L.A. REAL ESTATE

LOS ANGELES, CA (Is it worth it?)  —  After seeing the surveillance video of a Downtown pedestrian severely injured by a forceful shove from a vagrant into the path of a large truck, one must consider whether or not the costs of Downtown life are worth the rewards today.  Reports to the L.A. Loft Blog from Downtown real estate professionals indicate that the number of prospective home buyers has dropped significantly, while the number of residents moving out of Southern California has risen sharply over a few years ago. #dtla

Of the ten most recent sale or purchase transactions by the Corey Chambers Team, five were moving to Downtown Los Angeles. Six out of ten were moving to Los Angeles. Not too shabby, but compared to 2012, when nearly 100% of sales/purchases were people moving into Downtown Los Angeles, today’s real estate picture shines a bit less brightly for DTLA.  Of the recent ten moves, four of them were either moving out of DTLA or moving out of Southern California altogether. #realestatenews

MARKET SHIFTS AND STORMS

Five years ago, local real estate agents were extremely busy helping a huge influx of fresh faces move to lofts in Downtown Los Angeles. Today, the market has changed significantly. “More than 80% of our business is now helping repeat and referral customers, about half of them moving out of the area,” says Corey Chambers, “While the repeat business is great, and we’ve been able to attract offers for each and every one of our loft and condo listings, it is sad to see fewer buyers excited to move to Downtown Los Angeles now.” #realestatemarket

Chambers says he’s concerned about the number of residents moving out of California, but that these kinds of trends and cycles happen in real estate, and that the future for Downtown Los Angeles is very bright so long as residents, business and government can weather the storms while continuing to improve the quality of life in the center of the city. #sellhome

And while I have your attention, we are still on a mission to raise $25,000 for Children’s Hospital’s Recovery Center. We do this by donating to them a portion of our income from homes we sell.   As you know Children’s Hospital does great work in helping kids fight through and survive nasty life-threatening diseases like cancer, Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, leukemia and others.  Kids under their care are 300% more likely to enter into remission IF they can get into the recovery center.  BUT, the Recovery Center survives on Sponsorships and Donations.  So, YOUR REFERRALS REALLY DO HELP THE KIDS… 

Who do you know considering buying or selling a home you could refer to my real estate sales team?  

Not only will they benefit from our award-winning service, you can rest assured we are also donating to a very worthy cause.   

I want to make it easy to refer your friends, neighbors, associates or family members considering making a move, so call or text me at 213-880-9910. 

You and your referrals mean more than ever to me and my team. As we move forward in this new season, please know we are extremely thankful for you and you being a special part of our business. Thanks again and enjoy the Summer 2018 SoCal Home Quarterly Newsletter.   |  VIDEO
