Hollywood

Hollywood is really two markets stacked on top of each other: the flatter commercial core around Hollywood Boulevard and Sunset, home to the Walk of Fame, TCL Chinese Theatre, and a still-revitalizing mix of historic apartment buildings and new mixed-use development; and the Hollywood Hills above, a winding, view-oriented hillside market with a long entertainment-industry history.

Hillside homes range from modest mid-century cottages to significant view estates, with lot shape, road access, and view orientation driving much of the price variation between otherwise similar addresses.

The flatter core has seen substantial reinvestment over the past decade, with new residential towers and a denser mix of dining and nightlife, while the hills retain a quieter, more residential character despite sitting minutes from the commercial corridor.
