The 51st Marina Del Rey Holiday Boat Parade will be on December 14,2013
The Marina Del Rey’s 51st Holiday Boat Parade will be on December 14, 2013 The Boat Parade is always a fun event, you run into likeminded people and neighbors who you might not have seen for a long time. The best part our Boat Parade viewing does not require driving and searching for a parking placeJ. We live less than 500 yards from the Channel so cocktail in hand we go and enjoy the parade as well as the fireworks. So if you are in Marina Del Rey, CA and live near the Ocean or the Channel you basically have the luxury of front row seats for the Boat Parade. If you do not live near the water come early, because often times the streets get closed down. Looking for parking there are numerous County Parking Facilities nearby and under $6 you can park and enjoy the Boat Parade. This year’s Grand Marshalls will be Jeannie Buss & Phil Jackson of Lakers’ fame. Keep in mind Marina Del Rey has a number of Celebrities who live hereJ so who knows with whom you might be literally rubbing elbows to see the Boat ParadeJ. Keep in mind the Fireworks Start at 5:55pm and the Boat Parade goes until 8:00pm. So have fun and be safe.

Century City, CA is becoming a key patron to the Arts in Los Angeles! As I casually drive and walk through Century City I keep discovering Art. The Animals on Avenue of the Stars are still thereJ . I am thrilled that the community decided to keep them. It makes driving amongst the large Concrete Buildings a Joy! This past Friday, I was walking through the Westfield Mall again and I discovered the Thinker (Wire Sculpture) see enclosed post link http://actvra.in/47S6 I kept walking and found this statue and there were three different variations of this same statue. I only took one picture since I was late to a meeting. It was clear to me that there is a great direction Century City is heading. The community is becoming a key patron to the Arts. I hope the rest of Los Angeles will follow their example!

Casual Dining at the Enterprise Fish Co in Santa Monica, CA. As most of my regular readers know, I love seafood and casual dining. Needless to say we often stop in at the Enterprise Fish Co. in Santa Monica, CA. As you know I have blogged about their atmosphere and food quite often. As far as I am concerned there is a benefit of having causal, laid back seafood dining and a very relaxing atmosphere. Check out their website http://www.enterprisefishco.com/santamonica/ Lately I noticed that there is more of an Asian flair than previously. So I did some research, sure enough the executive Chef is Bruce G Choi, clearly I was right. There are more lighter, soy infused dishes and even more so you can tell on the fresher fare, such as Dungeness crab, Ahi tuna and I could go on and on. Instead I will show you a few pictures and makes sure you put the Enterprise Fish Co on your must visit destination if you want good food, casual dining and reasonable prices. The best part is even the wine selection is great and reasonably priced. In case you missed it here is a previous blog of mine about this great restaurant http://actvra.in/Skg If you just want to reach out to them directly here you go: 174 Kinney St. Santa Monica, CA 90405 United States Phone: 310-392-8366 If you are considering buying or selling a luxury home, an ultra luxury home, luxury investment real estate, luxury vacation homes, or luxury beach properties in Southern California, Los Angeles, Century City, Westwood, West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Marina Del Rey, Venice or Malibu, feel free to contact me at 310.486.1002 or homes@endrebarath.com or visit one of my websites at https://www.endrebarath.com.

read moreBeverly Hills Supply & Demand Statistics Month by Month for SFR !!!
Beverly Hills Supply & Demand Statistics Month by Month for Single Family Residences!!! I have been compiling the statistics for the past two years of Single Family Residences in Beverly Hills. Needless to say the month by month figures are important for your review in order that you can make good decisions about buying or selling a home. Interestingly the most frequently asked question to me has been “…what is the Inventory like…” as well as what are the “sold statistics”. Needless to say as I saw the figures and they confirmed what I have been suspecting all along. Just as an example November 2011 there were 318 homes for sale in Beverly Hills vs. November 2013 there were only 212 homes for sale that was a 33% drop of inventory. Not surprisingly when there is a drop of inventory it goes hand in hand that sales would be down as well. What I was surprised by was that the numbers were truly minor in difference. Per cent wise it sounds like a large number 12% drop from November 2011 to November 2013, but the reality was only a three (3) sale difference and needless to say that could have been an after effect of slower Appraisals, delays with Lenders just to name a few reasons. So if you see a “sound bite on the news or on the internet” Inventory has dropped 33% and sales are down 12% do not be alarmed, the price points have increased 41% during this same time period and there is a demand from buyers who have been on the sidelines for the past few years.

Beverly Hills Sold properties are down by 12% This would be the headline without discussion of the fact that Sales prices are up 41% as you saw in my previous blog post for your convenience I am enclosing it here for your review: http://activerain.com/blogsview/4265987/median-for-sale-vs-sold-in-beverly-hills-ca-month-by-month-up-by-41-#short-url-holder The entire picture is clear 26 Single Family homes sold in the month of November 2011 and 23 Single Family homes sold in the month of November 2013 so the reality is a small difference of 3 properties. That could have been delayed due to Appraisals being late or Lenders not moving at the pace we would like. The reality is that the Median Price was $2, 1019,250 in 2011 and in 2013 the Median Price was $2,840,000. This is clearly amazing, well here are the Charts and Statistics see it for yourself.

The Beverly Hills Average Days on Market by Month Report for the past 24 months. The Beverly Hills Average Days on Market by Month Report is very telling. I have been reporting what it was like for the last eleven months. Needless to say some of my readers were asking for the past two years because they felt that this would be more realistic. So needless to say I was equally interested what the Single Family average days on market would be in Beverly Hills. It turns out that November 2011 the average was 98 days on the market and comparing it to November 2013 surprisingly the average was 93 days. This is a 5% difference. What is more interesting is the numbers in April, May, June, July & August. As you can see it is not our imagination that the wild frenzied sales activity is behind us. What will be more interesting to see is the pace of activity we will see in December and January. This will clearly give us a better pulse of what 2014 will have to offer us.
