The Agent: Market Shifts & Strategy for Fall 2025

The fall real estate market has shifted gears — slower pace, smarter moves. With rates steadying and new legislation reshaping development zones, the season favors those who act strategically, not reactively.

Key Market Insights

• Luxury Recalibration: After years of record highs, the ultra-luxury sector is seeing price corrections. Trophy homes in L.A. and Miami are adjusting, and motivated sellers are becoming more flexible — a window of opportunity for discerning buyers.

  
  

• Zoning & Development Updates: California’s new SB 79 upzones areas near transit, paving the way for higher-density residential builds. For investors and developers, this could redefine prime parcels across L.A. in 2026 and beyond.

  
  

• AI Enters the Brokerage Scene: From market forecasting to digital marketing, agents nationwide are integrating AI into daily operations — enhancing speed, insight, and reach. At Cadiz & Lluis, we’re combining technology with hands-on expertise to keep our clients ahead of the curve.
