Homebuyers Look Just North as an Affordable Alternative to Echo Park

I have many homebuyers coming to me frustrated with the tough competition and lack of inventory happening in Echo Park. The market is red-hot right now in terms of volume of people who want to live/buy in Echo Park.

On top of that, the median home listed in Echo Park is around $480,000 (according to Realtor.com) and slowly increasing. And with lending guidelines tightening people are finding that surprisingly they don’t qualify for homes in the neighborhood.

I have suggested to a few that if you are looking for the character and vintage charm, but can’t afford Echo Park…that you should consider Highland Park, Mount Washington and Glassell Park. It is just 8 minutes north or quick hop on the I-110. There are wonderful neighborhoods, hidden gems, scattered around such as Mount Angelus and the Garvanza district, which are just a few off the top of my head.

Last year, New York Times covered the shift in Highland Park and the wave of restaurants and shops that have sprung up in the area.
