The global situation in 2026 is too large to tackle, so let's discuss what's happening on our peninsula, in our towns, and in our backyards. The real estate market experienced a few rumbles of its own, with buyers pushing the pause button and sellers facing more days on market than expected. It was a year of changing market conditions. There are currently 84 single-family homes for sale on the entire Palos Verdes Peninsula. 33 single-family homes are in escrow with accepted offers, and 551 single-family homes were sold on the Palos Verdes Peninsula during 2025.  Those numbers reflect PV real estate conditions that still favor sellers, but buyers have more negotiating power than in recent years. Homes are still selling, but not as quickly, and prices remain strong. The most expensive 2025 sale on "The Hill" was a residence in Palos Verdes Estates that sold for over $12,000,000. Only five [...]

Palos Verdes Real Estate Report – Fall 2025

  Goodbye Summer, Hello Autumn! If you're like me, you are ready for some cooler weather, and a cooling of interest rates would be a nice bonus as we step into September and prepare for the fall real estate market. What market conditions can we expect? September and October usually bring an uptick in both listings and sales, as people return to their regular routines after summer vacations. If there is an interest rate cut, I expect many sidelined buyers will restart their home search. This could be a good fall for both buyers and sellers. Although Palos Verdes' single-family inventory is up, the absorption rate is strong, and the overall market still favors sellers. The days of multiple offers may be in the past, but more than 350 homes in Palos Verdes have sold year-to-date.   There are currently 194 PV single-family homes for sale (as of late August), [...]

The spring market is gone, and it's too early for the lazy dog days of summer, so why are so many Palos Verdes Properties lingering on the market? The seller's market, which seemed to be a permanent fixture on The Hill, is taking a vacation, and buyers are delighted! For the time being, market conditions favor buyers. Sellers, don't despair; the market you dominated for more than a decade has not abandoned you, it's merely softened. Meticulous property preparation and spot-on pricing are your two trump cards in this new market. There are currently 205 single-family homes for sale in Palos Verdes. 70 Palos Verdes houses are in escrow with accepted offers, and 249 single-family properties have sold year-to-date.   The sky isn't falling, and the housing market is not crashing. It's a gentle shift from years past. That's all.   Norma Toering Broker-Owner  01147470 Charlemagne Int'l Properties Text or [...]

2024 Palos Verdes Real Estate Sales

A Beautiful Terranea Resort Sunset As the sun sets on 2024, the Palos Verdes Real Estate Market still favors sellers, but their grasp is weakening. Buyers are surely rejoicing, but Palos Verdes Sellers need not despair. On a scale of 1- 10, with "1" a raging sellers' market and "10" a buyer's paradise, the Palos Verdes Peninsula stands at a strong 3. However, it was a challenging year for PV with land movement and, consequently, falling prices in the affected areas. The lowest price for a Palos Verdes home in 2024 was $800.000 for a home impacted by the landslide. There were five single-family home sales in PV under $1,000,000. On the other hand, the luxury market enjoyed a robust year, with ten residences selling for more than $8,000,000. The 2024 year-to-date most expensive sale on the Palos Verdes Peninsula was $11,500,000 for a property on Paseo La [...]

New season, new market? Perhaps the constant seller's market we have lived with for many years is slowly morphing toward a neutral market favoring neither the seller nor the buyer. I'm ready for that change, and even with a more sustainable market, real estate will remain not only shelter but an excellent way to build generational wealth for homeowners on the Palos Verdes Peninsula. There are currently 158 Palos Verdes single-family homes for sale on the entire Palos Verdes Peninsula. 59 PV single-family homes are in escrow with accepted offers, and 255 Palos Verdes houses have sold year to date in 2024. The luxury homes market, those homes priced at or above $5,000,000, now favors buyers as there are 37 luxury properties for sale and only three PV luxury estates in escrow with accepted offers. Market shifts always bring a few changes to the current real estate market. Sellers can [...]

  The local real estate market is entering a mixed market, meaning some properties continue to sell within days with multiple offers. On the other hand, some properties remain on the market even after several price adjustments.

Summer Is Coming, But the Market is Cooling

  Nothing lasts forever, right? It's not quite time to turn off the lights, but this summer may be the aging seller's market last soiree, at least for the time being. Today's Morning Brew, an online news publication, confirmed what I experienced during the past few weeks. See the article below: You know that blissful feeling when you first step out of a sauna into room temperature? The housing market might be experiencing that right now. More signs are suggesting that the sizzling pace of US home price increases will start to ease. The first sign: Sales of existing homes fell 2.4% in April to their lowest level in almost two years. It's the third straight month they've declined, showing how record prices and skyrocketing mortgage rates have made potential homebuyers close their Zillow tabs in frustration. "It looks like more declines are imminent in the upcoming months, and we'll likely return [...]

Some buyers wonder if it is time to take a seat and wait out the tight housing market. Real estate professionals point to low inventory--that old supply and demand rule from economics 101- when discussing why the seller's market continues to rule the housing marketplace.  Most consumers often have no reference point for historical inventory levels; here's the reality with real numbers. In October of 2019, 236 Palos Verdes single-family homes were for sale. Two years later, we have 76 single-family Palos Verdes homes for sale on the entire Peninsula. Every submarket on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, except for Rolling Hills, remains in a strong seller's market based on the statistics from earlier this month. Often, pending sales outnumber active listings. October 2021 Real Estate Market Sliders:   As we move deeper into the fourth quarter of 2021, inventory is showing a slight increase, and a few more listings are [...]

Rolling Hills is home to some of the finest equestrian estates in Southern California If you don't believe the real estate market is at the height of hotness, here's a true story that will remove any doubt. On a chilly morning last week, I checked the Multiple Listing Service's daily updates before getting out of bed. (He who snoozes loses). I bolted upright when I saw a new listing that was a perfect fit for my client's search criteria. After a quick outing with my dog, I sent an email to my clients. We communicated back and forth, and I arranged a time with the listing agent to show the property. When we arrived at the property the next day there was a parade of people viewing the property. Social distancing was in place, but it was the largest crowd I'd seen at a new listing since the pandemic began. [...]

Rancho Palos Verdes Real Estate Snapshot Jan 2021

A Coastal Sunrise in Rancho Palos Verdes Happy New Year! As we wrap up the first month of 2021, housing inventory remains at an all-time low, and with the anticipated spring surge of buyers, the competition for houses on the Palos Verdes Peninsula is expected to intensify. If you're contemplating selling your RPV home, now is the time to prepare it for this hungry market. At the beginning of January 2021, on the day I pulled real estate statistics from the Multiple Listing Service, only 41 Rancho Palos Verdes single-family homes were listed for sale, and 38 RPV houses were in escrow with accepted offers. Those numbers are why I referred to this market as hungry; single-family homes are gobbled up quickly if they are priced right. If the thought of preparing your home for sale makes you shudder, then it's time to ask for help. I have experience on [...]
