DTLA - The Only Place That's a Buyer's Market

One thing the shake up of city centers did during COVID was offer unique, first-time-on-market, and sometime bargains for prime properties. A colleague of mine nabbed two properties in the West Village of NYC, and got them for about 25% below pre-COVID prices. A few lucky buyers recently got some of the best units at Eastern Columbia, some that had hit the market for the first time. 

Collectors seem to be buying up unique units that they'd never otherwise see on the market, including rare penthouses that have been significantly upgraded. One person's loss is another one's gain, I guess.

Great DTLA Historic Lofts on the Market Now - All with Mills Act Designations

What's so great about having property in a Mills Act building? Savings on property taxes. As you know, property taxes in Los Angeles are high. The Mills Act designation helps offset some of this tax burden. This could end up saving you thousands per year in taxes. The Mills Act only applies to select historic buildings.
