Los Angeles has always had a complicated relationship with its past—but are we starting to appreciate it more?

In my latest post, I explore the rising interest in historic homes across LA: why it's happening, what it means for neighborhoods, and where this newfound affection might lead.

🏛️ From Spanish Revivals to Deco courtyards, there's more at stake than nostalgia.

It's here! My new Substack newsletter, "Beyond The Listing," has officially launched, and the first post is up! 🚀

"Beyond The Listing" is where I'll be sharing deeper insights into the world of Los Angeles real estate, with a special focus on:
* Architectural gems & historic homes
* Neighborhood stories & LA history
* Market trends for unique properties

Why did I start it? Because there's so much more to discuss than what fits in a typical post! I'm excited to share more in-depth perspectives and connect with fellow enthusiasts of LA's character-rich homes.

I know many people who have lost their homes in the Eaton Canyon and Palisades fire - both clients, associates, and friends. I sold Ed and Angela their home right before Christmas in 2008. They started off as clients, and ended up becoming dear friends of mine. It was heartbreaking to hear that their insurance had been cancelled. They left the house without even a pair of extra socks when the embers came raining down on them. They lost everything. I'd like to help them reach their goal of $35k. Please share this if you can.
