“The amount of work and effort that Justin Bonney of Clear Way Real Estate put into selling our Lake Balboa home was incredible. The home needed work. Justin acted like a general contractor to coordinate his handyman, plumber, A/C guy, and landscaper. These contractors were all very happy to do the work on short notice for for Justin’s clients. And they did it based on our very limited budget. It blew us away. The repairs Justin’s team did for us (replacing old French doors, touch-up paint, replacing cabinetry, repairing electrical outlets) cost us about one third the amount quoted to us by independent general contractors. With Justin’s strategy, his guidance, and his network of realtors and clients, we had three good offers within two weeks and were happy with the price. Escrow closed in about 20 days. It is clear to me now that not all realtors are the same. Justin has developed these relationships and he puts them to work for his clients. His efforts far exceeded our expectations.”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Manhattan Beach is currently described as a seller's market, with a market gauge reading of 17 and relatively lean inventory. Months of supply sits at just 2.2 in this rolling three-month view, reinforcing that demand is outpacing the number of homes available.
Looking at pricing, the typical home value over the latest three months is about $3.29 million, down modestly compared with a year ago, yet the median list price is up sharply year over year by nearly a quarter. This combination suggests sellers are pricing ambitiously even as closed sale values edge slightly lower than last year.
Sales activity has picked up notably, with homes sold up more than 30 percent and pending sales up over 40 percent compared with the same period a year earlier. With 40 median days on market and roughly 31 percent of recent sales closing above list price, both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended agent to navigate strategy and timing in this evolving environment.

He picked up the phone that morning and said how can I help you, that same day we meet at his office and began the process of selling my Home. Every time I called Steven he picked up the phone and answered all my questions. He helped me through the whole process and was always their and kept me informed of everything that was going on. He is a Great Real Estate Agent, and now I can call him my Agent.”
“This is the second time I have used Rebecca Anderson to purchase a new property. This time she was also the realtor to sell my property. Rebecca was always available to answer my questions and never made me feel like I was bothering her. She was patience and firm when necessary. I would definitely use Rebecca Anderson again if necessary.”
“Working with Danny was a great experience from start to finish. He was knowledgeable, responsive, and made the entire home-buying process smooth and stress-free. Thank you, Danny, for your guidance and dedication throughout the purchase of our property. We truly appreciate all of your hard work and highly recommend you to anyone looking for an excellent real estate agent!”
“Joe Chung provided exceptional guidance throughout my home search. Thanks to his excellent listening skills, he instinctively understood my needs and preferences right from the start. His expertise made the entire process seamless, and I highly recommend his services.”
“Thanks to Nicole, I was able to purchase a home that I absolutely love. If you're looking for a realtor who is professional, trustworthy, hardworking, and truly has your best interests at heart, I highly recommend reaching out to Nicole. You'll be glad you did. As a first-time homebuyer, I had a lot of questions. Finding Nicole was one of the best things that could have happened. She was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to take the time to explain things in detail. Even when I thought I had done all the research possible, she always had helpful insights and advice that made a big difference. What stood out most was her dedication. No matter when I reached out, she was quick to answer my questions and made me feel supported. It never felt like I was just another client; she truly cared about helping me find the right home. Let her help you find your dream home too. I am even going to work on some future investment endeavors with her.”
“Working with Karen was excellent, she made sure to be there for us in every step of the process, was kind and patient enough to explain things to us and made sure we were comfortable. I do believe she's wonderful in her job and very professional. Although I would recommend her to change some of the contacts for some of the services that comes with buying a house, like the house inspection one and the carpet cleaning services; nothing to do with HER work but something to consider.”
“Jerretta was easy to contact. She returned calls quickly and was responsive beyond our expectations. She also followed up AFTER the sale was completed. We believe that was a reflection of her commitment to provide extraordinary customer service. We highly recommend Jerretta for your real estate needs.”

“We had a good time working together, the sale and the buy of houses we're pretty seamless all the documentation and the heads up of signing and sending she was on top of any questions that we needed answered if she couldn't do it in that moment, she would always get back to us promptly can't wait to get another house through Janely. Thanks again.”
“I am Very pleased to have had Joe as my agent!! He was very professional and knowledgeable and went above and beyond to get me an amazing price on my home!! Joe and his incredible team treated me like part of the family and I would definitely recommend Joe Manjarrez and his team to all my family and friends!!”
“At our first meeting Gautam had an accurate understanding of my neighborhood and it's surroundings. After walking through the house and the yards he gave a clear assessment of our home's value and the reasons why. He also had an idea of what types of buyers would likely show interest, and how to market our home to them. He had an excellent advertising package in mind. One day after being on the market we received a full-price offer. It fell through, but in line were two more full-price offers. The second potential buyer became the buyer. There were three issues with the property that arose and he handled them all. That was especially helpful as we were already out-of-state. The house sold without further issues. Gotham was easy to work with, and his expertise gave me confidence that things would be well-handled. I recommend Gautam highly, and would recommend him to family and friends.”
“I would recommend Mark Anthony 1000%! He is not only professional, trustworthy and knowledgeable, but also listens to your needs and makes it happen in a timely matter! Always accessible and there when you need him, he is the Realtor you want on your side!!”

“My husband and I have really enjoyed working with Joel in the process of finding a new home. He has been extremely knowledgeable, patient, and professional. He was timely but not too pushy. He is very detailed-oriented, which we appreciated greatly in the unique home purchase we made. He was very clear in explaining documents, market trends, and legal topics we were less familiar with. He was also very reliable and dependable.”
“After a year-long break due to family emergencies, we were pleasantly surprised that Alex Hunt was still willing to work with us. His willingness to continue working with us despite the challenges showed us his dedication and commitment. Throughout this whole process, he has demonstrated unwavering consideration and helpfulness, which we truly appreciate.”
