January 2024 - Jean-Luc Andriot - Blog Post Image for Jean-Luc Andriot blog 010324

A growing share of home buyers and sellers sat on the sidelines last year as the pace of home sales continued its downward trajectory.1 In fact, since the Federal Reserve began its series of interest rate hikes in 2022, the combination of higher borrowing costs and record-high home prices has fostered the steepest real estate market slowdown since the 2008 recession.2

Priced out of the market, a generation of would-be buyers has been forced to delay their plans for homeownership.3 At the same time, current owners—reluctant to give up their pandemic-era mortgage rates—are waiting to sell, which has resulted in a sharp drop in listings.4

But there may be some relief in sight: In December, the Fed signaled that it was done raising interest rates—and

From Realtor.com Rod Stewart Ups the Price on His Bananas Beverly Hills Estate—Now $80M for Jean-Luc Andriot blog

Here’s an unconventional sales strategy: If at first you don’t succeed, raise the price and try again.

But then, rocker Rod Stewart could never be accused of being conventional. He listed his extraordinary English country-style estate in Beverly Hills for $70 million in June and quickly found it didn’t exactly have “hot legs.” So the British rocker took his dazzling domicile off the market.

He then re-listed the home in early December for $80 million. At the higher amount, perhaps the seller would be willing to throw in some of those fancy furnishings.

The lavish estate really is a stunner, with nine ornate bedrooms and 12 glittering baths, all spread across 28,000 square feet. It sits on more than 3 manicured acres in the oh, so ritzy gated
