Los Angeles, yes, but where?

Daniel Azouri, is Los Angeles as big as they say?

The president of BARNES Southern California confirms that the rumor is true. Not only will you find a spectacular range of properties but also neighborhoods, each offering its residents a unique lifestyle.

This characteristic separates the BARNES Los Angeles agency apart from the others. Daniel Azouri leads a large team of 30 to 40 multilingual experts, all of which know the City of Angels and its surroundings like the back of their hand. “We offer the best advice to our local and non-local clients to help choose a home and living environment that will be put them at ease,” says Daniel Azouri. “In order to do this, the team invites clients to discover every neighborhood and surrounding cities like Malibu, Santa Monica, and West Hollywood. Once a neighborhood is chosen, our consultants present clients with a rich selection of houses and apartments.”

Another standout feature of BARNES Los Angeles is its dual vocation: specialists in real estate transactions as well as in business and commercial funding. Many of our clients use our services to start a new life project. We offer comprehensive services and put potential residents in touch with immigration specialists, lawyers, and accounting firms. These services are provided in the client’s first language to make the process as smooth as possible, whether you’re buying a business or a residence. Our relationships with clients tend to be long-term, because settling down in a new country takes some time: choosing the right business, finalizing the project, searching for a primary residence. It’s our pleasure at BARNES Los Angeles to help our clients’ dreams come true.

How to choose the right neighborhood in Los Angeles?

There are 3 factors you should consider when choosing a place to live in sunny Los Angeles for more than 300 days a year, Daniel tells us. 1) School for families. 2) Commute for professionals. 3) Atmosphere (restaurants, shops, parks, etc.). You might have heard about LA’s reputation for terrible traffic - it’s true. That’s why getting familiar with distance and traffic patterns is important where deciding where to live in Los Angeles.

Daniel Azouri gave us a little glimpse into the neighborhoods. Think palm trees and sunshine. We’ll give you a quick summary, but that shouldn’t stop you from checking out the neighborhoods in person with a BARNES consultant.

Actors in the film industry are very fond of Malibu, its beaches and hills. Villas in Hollywood Hills are very popular, boasting beautiful views of the entire city. Venice Beach is known for its trendy bohemian side, highly sought-after houses by the canal and a number of high-tech companies. Pacific Palisades and Silver Lake are havens for artists.

Bel-Air and Beverly Hills are as spectacular as ever. There you’ll find the houses and mansions of wealthy families and movie stars. As a matter of fact, the BARNES Los Angeles office is located in Beverly Hills near Rodeo Drive. Though all the Hollywood glamour is still in the air, a life of discretion reigns.

Los Angeles in one word

The president of BARNES Southern California played our game: Define the city in one word. He chose “freedom.” And it’s obvious why. Living in Los Angeles comes with the freedom to live your best life under the sun and in large, beautiful spaces. California in its entirety is so magical that Daniel Azouri challenges potential buyers to further their scope: Why not buy property in Santa Barbara or Palm Springs?
