Welcome to our podcast dedicated exclusively to Los Angeles real estate! In each episode, Michael Mersola dives deep into current trends, showcases exciting new listings, and invites industry guests to simplify the complexities of the real estate market. With over 20 years of experience in the LA area, Michael is a proud native Angeleno, having grown up in the San Fernando Valley. His extensive knowledge of Los Angeles encompasses not just the vibrant real estate market, but also its rich history, diverse culinary scene, unique geology, and passionate sports culture. In today’s heartfelt episode, we focus on Altadena, a community that has been significantly impacted by recent fires.

During my visit to my second home in this beautiful area, I assessed various lots for a client eager to help with the vital rebuilding efforts in Altadena. This cause resonates deeply with me, as I am equally committed to restoring our beloved neighborhood. I will provide a detailed analysis of the properties lost in the Eaton fire, including the sheer volume of devastation, the anticipated timelines for reconstruction, and the current market status.

We will discuss the number of properties that have traded or been sold since January, as well as the listing inventory as of July 16, 2025. Additionally, if you're interested in the rebuilding process, you can find valuable information regarding issued permits and the number of rebuilding applications received on the county
