Would you rather buy a $750,000 condo or a $900,000 house in Los Angeles?

Before you answer, consider this.

What if the condo has a $1,200 monthly HOA fee?

That’s $14,400 a year just in HOA dues.

Now, those fees may cover amenities, building insurance, and maintenance, so they’re not necessarily wasted money.

But when you factor in the mortgage, property taxes, insurance, and HOA fees, that less expensive condo could actually cost more per month than the house.

And then there’s the possibility of special assessments, which can add thousands of dollars in unexpected expenses.

Of course, a house comes with its own costs, including repairs, landscaping, and ongoing maintenance.

So which is the better investment?

It really depends on the property, the numbers, and your lifestyle.

The bottom line: Don’t compare purchase prices alone. Compare the total cost of ownership.

Would you buy a house that’s been sitting on the market for six months?

Here’s something I always encourage buyers to consider.

Sometimes there’s a diamond in the rough hiding behind terrible listing photos.

Most buyers start their search online, and if a house has dark, poorly composed photos, they may scroll right past it.

But what if the house is actually much nicer in person?

And what if it’s been sitting on the market for 90, 120, or even 180 days?

That could mean less competition and potentially more room to negotiate.

Of course, you need to find out why it hasn’t sold.

Is it overpriced? Does it need repairs? Did it fall out of escrow? Or has the marketing simply failed to attract the right buyers?

Sometimes the best opportunities are the homes everyone else has overlooked.

Does your Hollywood Hills home need a lot of work before you can sell it?

Maybe the kitchen and bathrooms haven’t been updated in decades. Or perhaps there are bigger issues with the roof, foundation, drainage, or retaining walls.

Here’s something I always tell homeowners: You don’t necessarily need to renovate everything before selling.

In the Hollywood Hills, buyers aren’t just looking at the finishes.

They’re also looking at the architecture, views, privacy, location, and potential.

Sometimes a few improvements make sense. Other times, selling as-is may be the better financial decision.

Before spending $100,000 or $200,000 on renovations, I’d want to know what the home could realistically sell for in its current condition.

That comparison can make a big difference.

You found a home you love in Los Angeles.

It’s listed for $2 million.

Would you offer $1.9 million? $1.95 million? Or full price?

Here’s the thing: there’s no magic percentage that works for every property.

Before making an offer, I look at comparable sales, days on market, price reductions, condition, and how much competition there is.

And in the Hollywood Hills, two homes with similar square footage can have completely different values because of their views, privacy, architecture, and access.

Sometimes there’s plenty of room to negotiate. Other times, the asking price may already be competitive.

The goal isn’t just to get a discount. It’s to buy the right property at a price that makes sense.

Can you really buy a home in the Hollywood Hills for under $1 million?

Believe it or not, occasionally you can!

I’ve toured some pretty interesting lower-priced homes in the Hollywood Hills through my Friday Finds, and they’re not always what people expect.

We’re talking charming canyon cottages, older hillside homes, fixer-uppers, and properties with unusual layouts or challenging access.

Of course, buying in the hills comes with things to consider, including parking, foundations, drainage, insurance, and the overall condition of the property.

But if you’ve always wanted to live in the Hollywood Hills, I wouldn’t automatically rule it out just because your budget is under $1 million.

Sometimes you just need to know where to look.

Can you sell a Los Angeles home while a tenant is still living there?

Yes—but selling a tenant-occupied property requires a little more planning than selling a vacant home.

The existing lease, current rent, showing access and the type of buyer you’re likely to attract can all affect the sale. An investor may actually like having a good tenant in place, while an owner-occupant may have very different concerns.

And in Los Angeles, sellers should never assume that putting a property up for sale automatically means the tenant has to move.

Understanding the tenancy before you list can help you make better decisions about pricing, marketing and timing.
