2021 is past it’s half point mark and Compass Calabasas real estate agent Yoav Astman has some insights on what the Calabasas market is looking like as of July 2nd, 2021.
Inventory
Inventory in Calabasas as well as the majority of the country is understandably down. That being said, June saw 31 homes sold, compared to 18 from the year before, and the average time on market for the typical home in Calabasas was nearly half of what it was last year in the same period. The Compass Calabasas report showed that the average house remained on the market for 61 days last year while this year it was 36 days.
What does this mean for real estate investors and first or second home buyers? It means that the market is hot and prices are going up. If you thought that buying a home in January was too late – you likely think that buying a home in July is even more late. The truth is that, as the Compass Calabasas Real Estate Guide says this month, is that as inventory becomes available more and more people are looking to buy.
Why Calabasas?
But why Calabasas? “That’s simple,” says Yoav Astman. “Calabasas and its surrounding areas has more than spotting Kardashians at restaurants. It has great schools, great hospitals, great weather and easy access to the best of Los Angeles.” When asked what recommendations he gives to future homeowners looking to buy with Compass in Calabasas, Yoav Astman of the Astman Group said, “Beyond the obvious of pre-qualifying and having your financials in order the best thing you can do is ask yourself WHY you want to buy. If you’re looking for a home that will go up in value, Calabasas offers that. If you’re looking for a home to raise your kids, few places are better than Calabasas. It all comes down to WHY.”
