Jonah Hill Selling His Sleek Malibu Retreat for $15M

Image
agent top miami real Getty Images / Realtor.com “Don’t Look Up” star Jonah Hill is backing away from his Malibu, CA, home, according to Dirt. He’s listing the contemporary mansion for $14,995,000, which is a steep climb from the $9 million he paid just over a year ago for the place.

They’re Not Just for Kids! Luxe Adult Bunk Beds Are Actually a Thing Now

Image
agent top miami real Photo by Linc Thelen Design via Houzz Does the thought of sleeping in a set of bunk beds send a shiver down your spine, especially if your summer camp experience wasn’t the most blissful event? Swatting at black flies all night and aching in the morning after sleeping on what’s basically a piece of plywood are a few common memories that might spring to mind. Today, if you encounter bunk beds, it’s likely at someone’s vacation home. Or perhaps your own little ones snooze in the Tromso version from Ikea. But as an adult, do you really want to ascend that ladder or stairs for a night in a bunk? If it looks like these beds, we’re fairly certain you’ll beg for the chance. “These looks make the most sense in second homes, like beach houses or cabins, where overnight guests and entertaining are the focus,” notes Carolyn Gagnon, a real estate agent with Compass in New York City. But more and more, the adult bunk bed trend is driven by the need to offer the ul...

The Great Real Estate Slowdown: 10 Markets Where Homes Linger the Longest—and Buyers Gain an Edge

Everyone is desperate to get a grip on where things are going in U.S. real estate. Are prices continuing to rise? Is inventory going to keep falling?

And in another sign of a cooldown in the housing market, U.S. homes are remaining on the market just a little longer. According to Realtor.com® data from May, the median number of days on the market for an American home stands at 31. While still a blistering pace, it represents a relief from the turbochar...
