Los Angeles is the largest housing market in the western United States, with a median home price around $950K and enormous variation by neighborhood — from $500K starter homes in South LA and the Northeast to $3M+ properties in the Westside and Hollywood Hills. LA County's $1,209,750 conforming loan limit means most purchases outside luxury markets can use conventional financing with competitive rates. The city's entertainment, tech, and gig economy workforce creates strong demand for Non-QM loans: freelancers, contractors, and content creators with variable income benefit from our bank statement programs. Real estate investors target LA's strong rental demand with our DSCR loans, while foreign nationals purchasing LA property use our foreign national loan programs. The city's older housing stock — craftsman bungalows, mid-century modern, and Spanish colonial homes — makes FHA 203(k) renovation loans a popular choice for buyers who want to personalize while building equity.

Where to Buy in Los Angeles

Los Feliz and Silver Lake anchor LA's hillside luxury market, with character homes and view properties from $1.3M to $3M+ that routinely require jumbo financing — many of these buyers are entertainment and tech professionals with equity-heavy compensation our Non-QM programs are built to underwrite. Echo Park and Highland Park have transformed over the past decade, with 1920s bungalows and newer infill from $900K-$1.3M attracting younger buyers who often combine conventional loans with FHA 203(k) renovation financing. Eagle Rock offers similar craftsman character at a slightly lower entry point, $850K-$1.1M. Koreatown and Mid-Wilshire provide LA's densest condo and multi-family inventory, from $450K-$750K, popular with both FHA first-time buyers and DSCR investors targeting rental income. Boyle Heights remains one of LA's more affordable neighborhoods, where CalHFA down payment assistance helps longtime residents become first-generation homeowners.

Buyer Insights

Who Is Buying in Los Angeles?

Foreign nationals purchasing LA investment or second-home properties use our foreign national programs, which don't require U.S. credit history. Buyers restoring older craftsman and Spanish colonial homes frequently pair FHA 203(k) financing with their purchase.
