Home to sun-drenched beaches, plenty of room to roam and incredible homes for sale and rent, Malibu has always been the embodiment of the California summer dream. From titans of industry to A-list celebrities, buyers have long flocked to the Malibu coast, seeking privacy, serenity and a change of scenery. The summer of 2020 is no different. In fact, with people from all over the country forgoing international travel for drive-to destinations and many seeking refuge from city life, Malibu is seeing a surge in demand for both full-ownership properties and high-end rental homes. The Agency CEO Mauricio Umansky recently penned an article for Worth, noting the rise in demand for real estate on the California coast as people seek more space, amenities and privacy.
“In Malibu—one of our most active summer rental markets—those who typically rent for the season are deciding to buy, and we have an abundance of inquiries with people willing to pay hundreds of thousands a month for a prime, beachfront abode,” Mauricio writes. Malibu offers a number of options, whether choosing a front-and-center seat to all the action from Pacific Coast Highway or seeking absolute privacy from the hillside bluffs above.
