It appears someone’s spec project has hit the skids in the hills of Malibu. What’s unusual about this one is that it’s a large, nice, ocean view project in a neighborhood of homes in the $4-$7 million dollar range. The partially framed project came on the market last month at $3,950,000 and got a whopper of a price slash this week to $2,900,000 with an MLS description saying “will consider all serious offers.”  

I personally like the price cut (that’s one motivated seller!) and it may very well be worth a look if you’d like to avoid most of the headaches involved with building a house in Malibu. Maybe one of the execs over at Toll Brothers needs something to do!

I recently had an opportunity to photograph a condo for a fellow agent in Malibu. She explained that it was an incredible unit that had been remodeled to the studs and had an amazing view. WOW! I had know idea it was this nice! When I arrived I was blown away with how well done it was. The view was one of the best I’ve seen… EVER! If you are in the market for a condo, forget the overpriced and rapidly depreciating in town units. Invest in the rarest of commodities, a huge ocean view, that will knock your socks off! Come see this Malibu condo before it’s too late! Check the website out here www.23914deville.com Give me a ring to find out more about other condos available in Malibu. 1 310 699 8428  

The gilded age continues! For $150,000 per month, with a two month minimum, you can rent the ultimate get away house. The home, located on Cliffside Drive on Point Dume, has 4 bedrooms and 8 baths with enough interior space to park a few Gulf Stream V’s. There is a  direct trail to the beach and you can run around the property naked if you please because you will have total privacy. You are going to have to cough up a nice security deposit of $300,000 which means you’d better be ready  to cut a check for $450,000 to move in for the first month.  Let’s work with smaller numbers ya’ll can grasp. It’s only $200 per hour or $5000 per day. Considering that the Presidential Suite at Shutters in Santa Monica is $3500 per night, renting this for a mere $1500 more  makes sense, right?. Why rent a room in a hotel when you can rent a Mansion? The only downside to staying here is that you can’t walk outside and buy fake sunglasses or watch guys in Dolphin shorts skating on the Venice Boardwalk. Oh well.

Competing for high-end buyers are two other listings: 7049 Birdview at $19,950,000 and 7307 Birdview at$11,250,000.  The highest sales price achieved on Birdview closed around $13,000,000.

Ft. on little over one acre of prime Malibu soil. There is an infinity edge pool, expansive ocean views, and direct beach access via a private gate with your own path to the sand. If you love the homes in the Hamptons, the weather in Southern California, and can afford to buy a small, private island, then you’ve found your perfect home in highly sought after Malibu.
