Gruskin, Malibu Real Estate

Professional Background
I am a graduate of Pepperdine University School of Law (1984), and practiced as a real estate attorney for over 15 years. I was licensed as a realtor in 2002, and am a partner at Westside Estate Agency, LA’s premiere luxury real estate firm. I serve as Vice President of the Malibu Association of Realtors, and am a former Director for the Greater Los Angeles Multiple Listing Service, and former Assistant Manager for Coldwell Banker – West Malibu Office. Market Expertise
I have been ranked among the top 10% of all real estate agents both nationally and internationally. I study the market on a daily basis and am on top of current sales and local market activity. I am an expert at valuing properties and getting my clients top dollar for their listings. Typically mine sell within 90% of the recommended asking price. My attorney background has sharpened my negotiating skills, and I am equally adept at getting great values for my buyer clients. Marketing and Sales Approach
I employ a full time marketing professional. Together we create and prepare a custom tailored advertising campaign for each property listed, including professional photography, print ads, web design, Google PPC campaigns, social media, e-blasts, mailers and marketing events. My approach is always very hands on and professional, and I typically write all copy, do all showings and prepare all documents myself versus relying on lesser qualified assistants who may know little about the properties being shown.

“My goal is to give every client insightful and intelligent advice, get them the best value possible, and serve professionally and with the utmost integrity.”

Scroll through recent Malibu West listings and something looks off for a market this small. Two homes on the same street, both somewhere between 2,400 and 4,200 square feet, both behind the same guard gate, can carry price tags well over a million dollars apart.

Malibu West homes share just five or six floor plans. Here's why renovation state, not square footage, explains the real 2026 price spread.

Malibu Real Estate Market Report — Q2 2026

I wanted to share a brief update on today’s Malibu luxury real estate market, along with a recap of a message from our co-founder, Stephen Shapiro, offering his perspective on where things are headed.

The Malibu luxury market remains active, with a considerable number of transactions taking place. The challenge is that sellers often need to adjust their expectations to align with today’s market realities.
