Take Another Look At Malibu
Posted by on Friday, September 12, 2008 at 10:33 AM (PST)
I was preparing comparable sheets for a house I held open in the Pacific Palisades several weeks ago and I was really struck by the homes and their prices. For the same type of money in Malibu, one would be able to get close to an acre of land, views of the ocean, a great school district and much more.
I’ve lived in Malibu for more than 10 years now and have come to love the slower pace, small community, natural beauty, great schools, and families that I have met. I know Malibu sometimes gets the reputation of only being for the rich and famous, but I’d like to help you think of Malibu as a great place to make your life.
Below are a few of the current listings in Malibu that I consider to be great places to call home:
