Market Report for Santa Monica April 2016

(April 1 through April 30)

The market is vibrant and on an upswing in Santa Monica.  Homes are selling and buyers are buying.  The new train on Colorado are bringing people from all over the city and is quite appealing to European tourists who are considering buying in the area.  S

Several clients in who own real estate in New York City have told me that they will actively start looking for a 2nd home here this summer based on this fact that we have a new train that goes to the arts/museum areas in down town Los Angeles.

I’m excited about the future here for young home buyers in Santa Monica.  You can take the train for free on May 20th.  There will be festive train parties, celebrations and lots of fun Santa Monica City funded that day and the next day on the 21st.

Please review my Santa Monica Market Analysis for April 2016 and tell me what you think about the local market.  I’m all ears, really!
