Greetings, I'm Nathan Derry, a seasoned Realtor with JohnHart Real Estate, and I'm here to give you the inside scoop on the real estate market in the vibrant 90036 area, also known as Mid Wilshire. For the month of September 2023, we've seen some interesting trends, including a 21% absorption rate, a median sales price of $2,549,000, 23 active listings, and 5 properties successfully sold. But there's more to discuss than just numbers, and that's why we'll also touch on a matter close to our hearts: ensuring your pets are safe during the Halloween trick-or-treat season.

Understanding the Real Estate Market in 90036

Let's dive into the real estate market first. Mid Wilshire, situated right in the heart of Los Angeles, has always been a dynamic and sought-after neighborhood. It's known for its historical charm, diverse architecture, and an ever-evolving cultural scene. In September 2023, we've observed a 21% absorption rate. That means 21% of the available properties were sold, indicating a market that's somewhat balanced between buyers and sellers. While we saw 23 active listings and 5 successful sales, the median sales price stood at $2,549,000, showing the desirability of homes in this area.

Now, why should you pay attention to these numbers? Mid Wilshire is a competitive market, and understanding the absorption rate and median sales price can give you an advantage, whether you're buying or selling. It's essential to work with a knowledgeable real estate agent who can help you navigate this ever-changing landscape.

Halloween and Pet Safety: As we're on the brink of Halloween, there's one more thing we need to address: pet safety. Halloween is a festive time when families go trick-or-treating, decorate their homes, and, yes, don those spooky costumes. While it's a fun tradition for many, it can be stressful for our furry friends. The constant doorbell ringing and strange visitors in costumes can cause anxiety for pets.

So, what can you do to ensure their safety and well-being? Here are a few tips:

1. Secure Your Pets: During peak trick-or-treating hours, keep your pets secured in a separate room or area away from the front door. This prevents them from darting outside, getting scared, or getting overly excited by the commotion.

2. Comfort and Distractions: Provide your pets with their favorite toys, treats, or calming music to keep them occupied and relaxed.

3. Proper Identification: Make sure your pets have proper identification, such as tags and microchips, in case they manage to escape.

4. No Candy for Pets: Keep Halloween candy away from your pets. Chocolate, in particular, can be toxic to dogs and cats.

By taking these precautions, you can enjoy Halloween festivities while ensuring your pets are safe and stress-free.

In Mid Wilshire's dynamic real estate market, it's essential to stay informed and work with experienced real estate professionals like me to make the most of your investments. And as we enjoy the Halloween season, remember to consider your pets' safety and comfort. Happy Halloween, and if you have any real estate questions or need assistance in this exciting market, don't hesitate to reach out.
