Bel Air home attracts a flurry of buyers as price drops by half a million.

Bel Air, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/19/2013 -- As the economy shows increasing signs of recovery, more luxury real estate listings are coming on the market, encouraging buyers to purchase their dream home, says Sally Forster Jones, a real estate agent in the Los Angeles area. To that end, the LA luxury real estate agent announced a price reduction on a luxury listing at 290 Strada Corta Road, Bel Air 90077.

Says Jones, "The asking price on this exceptional property has just been dropped over half a million dollars to $11,995,000. This is an excellent price reduction for this property, which is located in the best part of lower Bel Air with exceptional privacy. For buyers looking for a deal with incredible value in a prestigious area of Bel Air, this is it. This property is a fantastic value, as it is rare to find a property available in this highly desirable area with so much privacy and potential. The current home is absolutely beautiful and is a true mid-century. There is also an amazing opportunity to redevelop or enhance the current home which sits on over an acre of land, much of it flat and usable."

Jones, one of the top luxury real estate agents in Los Angeles, explains that in LA, privacy is at a premium and this property offers that rare commodity. "Not only is it private, gated, and approached via a long circular drive, but it offers 6 bedrooms, 8.5 bathrooms and a separate guest house. You have complete privacy, surrounded by greenery. Usable lots of significant size are also more difficult to come by, but this estate has a large area of usable land including a pool, yard, patio and motor court. The house also has the distinction of being an authentic mid-century home designed by architect George MacLean."

Location, says Jones, is one of the most important selling points, as it's the one thing that cannot be changed or altered. This home, for example is "located in the highly desired pocket of lower Bel Air, attracting those looking for their dream home or, if they prefer, an investment sure to pay off down the road."

Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/19/2013 -- Sally Forster Jones proudly announces the sale of her Pacific Palisades listing. The property is located in the Riviera which is a highly desirable neighborhood in Pacific Palisades and was once the home to former President Ronald Reagan. In addition to its rich and fascinating history, the property also boasts gorgeous panoramic views from the Getty Center to the ocean.

"This property is set in an incredible location with complete privacy and an exceptional story. The property possesses many of the most desirable features buyers are currently looking for which explains why it has recently sold, fetching a price well above asking," Sally Forster Jones explains.

"Interest in this property was very high which is a good indication of the local housing market. Rising prices and a shortage of inventory leave buyers with limited prospects when it comes to LA Luxury Real Estate properties in these sought after neighborhoods. It is also an indication on the importance of pricing in the current market. Well priced properties are drawing lots of attention and often multiple, over asking offers.

Recently, the home was listed for $4,999.000. There was overwhelming interest in the property which led to the above asking sale. In addition to sweeping city and ocean vistas, the home sits on a large, nearly 2/3 acre lot with a long, private and gated driveway, making it a very attractive purchase for someone interested in updating or redeveloping the authentic mid-century home.

Sally Forster Jones continues to be a top real estate agent in Beverly Hills due in large part to LA Luxury Real Estate listings such as this. Ms. Jones heads a team of professionals skilled in facilitating all aspects of property sales across greater Los Angeles and worldwide.

Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/19/2013 -- The average listing prices for homes in Santa Monica recently saw an increase of approximately 3.5% according to statistics posted by Truila.com real estate website.

One property Jones recently placed on the market is indicative of this selling trend, boasting a $5,595,000 asking price and located on the edge of Santa Monica canyon, just west of the Riviera Country Club. According to Jones, the LA Luxury Real Estate for sale at 804 Woodacres Rd in Santa Monica is a rare jewel. "The property is located at the end of a cul-de-sac, in an incredibly majestic setting which offers beautiful mountain and ocean vistas. The authentic mid-century home features designs by Case Study House architect Thornton Abell, and is surrounded by lush landscaping and greenery."

According to Jones, homes like this 5 bedroom 4.5 bath on nearly an acre of land are considered highly desirable. "You approach the house via a long gated drive providing an unusually peaceful setting which is seldom obtainable in prime Westside areas. This is an incredible opportunity for someone who wants to update the existing home or build their dream estate in an incredible Westside location with potential for 2nd story ocean views."
