Residential Real Estate in Lakewood
One of America’s original post-war planned communities — and a market where small differences between near-identical homes decide the price.

When the houses start the same, everything you changed matters.
Lakewood was built at extraordinary speed in the early 1950s, and much of the city still reflects that — tracts of similar single-family homes on similar lots. It makes for unusually clean comparable analysis, but it also means the variables that remain carry disproportionate weight.
Additions, garage conversions, permit status, roof and system updates, corner or interior lot, and which side of a busy street you sit on will move the number far more here than they would in a more varied market.
What is your Lakewood home worth?
In a market of similar homes, your updates and permits are what move the number. Start with the address.
No cost, no obligation. A broker will review the estimate against real comparables before you hear from us.
What Drives Value in Lakewood
- Comparable value shifts with location within the city, lot, condition, improvements, parking and nearby sales.
- Because the base housing stock is consistent, permitted additions and updates are unusually influential on price.
- Sellers should weigh which preparation items genuinely improve marketability rather than over-improving before listing.
- Buyers should factor property condition and long-term ownership costs alongside price and monthly payment.

Local knowledge, not a national database.
Our office is in Los Alamitos, not a regional call centre. Lakewood sits inside the area we work in week to week, which means comparables are read with an understanding of which streets, corridors and submarkets actually behave differently.
If you own here and want a view on value, or you are searching and want to know what is realistically available, that conversation costs nothing and carries no obligation.

First off before I decided to sell, Richard found me a renter and I told him if I decided to sell I would give him the first crack. Which I did. He sold my house as promised and was easy to work with. I would definitely work with him again!! I also recommend him for others.
