US Consumer Confidence Hits a Seven-Month Low
Lately, we’ve seen US consumer confidence dip to a seven-month low—even as folks felt a bit better about their current situation in mid-Q3, worries about income, business, and jobs in the coming months became more pronounced. The present-conditions index jumped by about 7 points to 121, but the expectations gauge dropped by around 6 points to 68, which is a level that’s often linked to recession risk. Early in Q3, employers cut 23,000 jobs and unemployment ticked up to about 4%, mainly because more people stepped out of the workforce—not necessarily because hiring picked up. Even with confidence a bit softer, homebuying expectations barely budged and actually kept climbing, with around 61% still predicting interest rates to go higher. With policymakers keeping rates steady and the market not expecting quick relief, it looks like borrowing costs will likely remain elevated through the end of the year. As someone who loves helping people find a place to create lifelong memories, I’m always tuned in to these shifts—because your journey to a new home is about more than just numbers; it’s about finding the right place, even in challenging times.

La County Property Values Surpass $2.2 Trillion
It’s incredible to see Los Angeles County’s property values reaching new heights, with the 2026 Assessment Roll now at an impressive $2.272 trillion—up 4.42%. That means over $27 billion in property tax revenue, all fueled by $12 billion in new construction and $49 billion in property transfers. The median home price has climbed to $982,000. As someone who helps families make their homes here in Woodland Hills and beyond, I’m always inspired by how our community continues to grow and thrive. Each number represents not just economic momentum, but new places for lifelong memories to be made. Here’s to creating even more opportunities for people to live, explore, and build their futures in our vibrant corner of LA.

Los Angeles Programs Can Reduce Down Payments
So many folks in Los Angeles believe you need to save up around 20% for a down payment before you can even think about owning a home. But there’s good news for aspiring homeowners: there are city and county programs designed to make that dream much more attainable. The city housing department offers purchase-assistance programs with subordinate loans that can help with your down payment, closing, and acquisition costs—sometimes up to $161,000 for those who qualify. Usually, buyers contribute about 1% of the purchase price, complete a simple 8-hour education course, and promise to make the home their primary residence. Los Angeles County has its own tiered homeownership program that can provide as much as $100,000, and statewide options add even more flexibility, with deferred loans, grants, and tax credits available to support your LA purchase. The process might seem overwhelming—lots of rules, classes, and paperwork—but these resources are worth exploring if you’re aiming to create a place for life’s biggest moments. Don’t let the fine print hold you back from finding your own space to truly live and make memories.

Smart Tips to Save Thousands on Metro Mortgages
When it comes to finding your dream home, every detail matters—including your mortgage. It turns out that homebuyers in major U.S. cities are overpaying an average of $3,300 each year in extra interest and fees, and in some coastal metros, that number can reach as high as $8,100. More than 80% of borrowers pay more simply because they don’t compare enough lender options. As someone who loves helping people find not just a house, but a place for new memories and adventures, I always encourage exploring every possibility—including your financing. A little extra research can mean thousands saved, and that’s money you can put toward truly living life to the fullest in your new home.

Los Angeles Housing Market: Trends and Forecast 2026
With California's median home price sitting around $887,680 and a slight 1.1% uptick in sales, it's interesting to see how these trends play out here in Los Angeles County. We’ve seen our median price dip by 2.6%, and sales soften by 0.9%, with interest rates at 6.54% making affordability a real consideration for many families. But as someone who’s passionate about helping people find the spaces where they’ll build lifelong memories, I’m encouraged by signs of market stabilization ahead. Navigating these shifts is all part of the journey, and I’m here to help turn these numbers into new beginnings and positive experiences for the community.
