  • South Bay Real Estate Year-End Wrap-Up: Top & Bottom Submarkets of 2025
    Dec 22 2025
    Richard delivers a concise year-end wrap-up of South Bay real estate, breaking down how the market performed in 2025 at the submarket and zip code level. This shorter episode pairs with his written blog and focuses on the top five and bottom five performing submarkets across the Beach Cities and Palos Verdes Peninsula. Richard walks through which areas struggled this year, including the Manhattan Beach Sand Section, select Palos Verdes neighborhoods, and Rolling Hills, and explains the factors behind the declines, from pricing pressure to interest rates and geological issues. He then flips to the bright spots of 2025, highlighting standout performers like the Hill Section of Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach Sand Section, Manhattan Village, and East Manhattan Beach, where new construction and affordability drove strong gains. To round out the episode, Richard shares a high-level zip code performance recap across Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, and the Palos Verdes Peninsula, offering early insight into trends he’ll expand on in his full annual report coming in January, along with his fearless predictions for 2026.

  • Market Slowdown, Rent Limits & Affordability Updates in South Bay Real Estate
    Dec 3 2025
    In today’s episode, Richard delivers a quick but insightful breakdown of four major trends shaping the Los Angeles and South Bay real estate landscape. First, he examines the recent spike in national foreclosure filings and explains why the 20% jump looks far less dramatic once you account for L.A. County’s historically low foreclosure base. Next, Richard reviews new MLS numbers showing Los Angeles County’s median home price is now unchanged year-over-year, offering early signs that high rates and stretched affordability are finally cooling demand. Richard then unpacks the City of Los Angeles’ newly approved rent-control limits, now among the strictest in California, and what these changes mean for landlords who own property inside LA city boundaries. Finally, he wraps with the latest California Housing Affordability Index report, with statewide affordability remains stuck at 17%, signaling continued pressure for buyers across the region.

  • Real Estate vs. the S&P 500:Seasonality, Turnover & Long-Term Returns
    Nov 18 2025
    In today’s episode, Richard covers three big themes shaping today’s housing decisions. First, he breaks down what he’s seeing on the ground in Q4 across the South Bay: slower transaction volume, a return to pre-COVID seasonality, and how today’s market is playing out across the South Bay. Next, Richard unpacks fresh national data from Redfin showing U.S. housing turnover at a 30-year low and explains how “golden handcuff” low-rate owners are keeping inventory tight, even with affordability still stretched. Finally, he dives into the numbers behind real estate versus the S&P 500, using real South Bay land deals and a 30-year Case-Shiller vs. S&P comparison to explore when you may be better off buying property—and when a simple index fund might quietly win.
