The week in Malibu
What moved, what dropped and what changed hands in Malibu, read the way an inspector reads a house.
The Malibu file →The largest reduction on the desk was 25266 Malibu Road — down $1,000,000, from $7,500,000 to $6,500,000, listed by Carolwood Estates.
13 listings changed status: 5 sold, 4 active under contract, 4 pending. The brokerage on every row below is the listing brokerage on the record, not ours.
12 homes came to market, asking from $1,049,000 to $19,800,000.
That is the week, address by address. What any one of these rows means for a house on the same street is the question the file answers next.
