Update! Unit went in to multiple offers right away. Beach Key and Whitewater views are hard to resist at that price! I will publish the final closing price when it comes out. Be ready to pounce on the next great deal!

A new listing has hit the Malibu Real Estate condo market this week and if it closes at anything near its asking price, other sellers may need to rethink their asking price. The 2 bedroom condo on Heathercliff was originally purchased in 2006 for $850,000 and has been listed this week for $427,900. Yes, almost a half-off sale and likely to upset many nearby condo owners when it becomes a comp. I showed the property this morning. It was surprisingly clean and had white water views of Zuma beach. Good enough views that your surfing buddies will be calling to get the early morning swell report from you. Other bonuses include a beach key, walking distance to Lilys Burrito Shop, Pavillions, and Zuma Beach. The unit is bank owned and likely to sell fast. Call for more info 310 699 8428

First off, Sea Level is a great beach. It is located just up from Broad Beach and has a cool, mini-community vibe to it. Residents leave kayaks and surfboards on the sand without any worry about someone stealing them. The 4th of July party there is huge and the beach is in better shape than Broad Beach right now. This could go out at a good price and is worth seeing if you are in the real estate market for a beach house in Malibu. Places like this also rent out for top dollar in the summer months. Listed at $5,950,000.

March is the month when summer  beach rentals and leases come on the Malibu Real Estate market. If you haven’t secured your beach rental by the middle of May you are likely to find yourself building sand castles in Mojave. I predict this year lease prices will be slightly lower than last years but the premium beaches like Broad Beach, The Colony, Carbon Beach, and Malibu Road, will still command high prices. Summer Rental prices on the low end will be around $10,000 and top at at $100,000 or more for the best beach houses. E-mail Me if you’d like a list of available rentals sent to you.
