Open Houses; Local Real Estate Buzz 🐝

We checked in with four local realtors to get their take on the current market conditions in light of the recent failure of Silicon Valley Bank, the bailout of First Republic Bank and the resulting jitters about the health of the U.S. banking system.

"This is not 2008," Anne Loveland of Loveland Carr told the Buzz. "The majority of homeowners either own their homes out right or enjoy interest rates under 4% and the supply of homes in our area is still very restricted and will remain so." Loveland's advice is to try to lock down the lowest rate you can with a trusted lender. But, in the long run, she thinks we can all expect to pay higher fees for mortgages and deposits at banks to pay for FDIC bail outs.

The failure of Silicon Valley Bank other banks has directly impacted our local market, local realtor Diana Knox told the Buzz. "One example is First Republic Bank," said Knox, "this bank offered incredible loan opportunities and was a very good mid-level bank.

"I am seeing a higher down payments being required for commercial properties, like apartment buildings, and retail store fronts, " John Duerler, of Hancock Homes told the Buzz. "Some as high as 40%-50%."

Knox said the new mansionization tax (Measure ULA) which increases the taxes on residential and commercial properties selling over $5 million effective April 1, 2023 is also affecting sales. At the upper end of the market, homes selling between $10-15 million appear to be sitting for a while, added Duerler.

There's also something affecting the real estate market which is why local realtor Clint Lohr always advises clients to buy or sell property according to their own individual situation.

Generally, most people benefit from homeownership, explained Loveland. And she sees the upside in a turbulent time, adding, "those who bought when everyone was scared in the early days of the pandemic are sure happy today that they did!"

Buzz food writer Deborah Brooks posted a recipe to

Buzz food writer Deborah Brooks posted a recipe today for Stuffed Peppers With Lentils, Grains, Feta and Mint an updated vegan version of a classic casserole style dinner.

” Stuffed peppers, that classic casserole style dinner many of us associate with our moms, have a much more colorful and international history. Cultures from around the globe have been stuffing vegetables, for centuries with all sorts of savory fillings. From Bharvan Mirch in India to Dolmas in the Mediterranean to TexMex Chile Rellenos in the Southwest, peppers in particular have been a favorite vegetable to stuff. It makes perfect sense, as these sturdy nightshades are the perfect vessels for meats, grains, cheeses and spices,” wrote Brooks.

“For this recipe I’ve chosen the familiar style stuffed bell pepper that has its origins in Central Europe. In place of meat I’m using cooked lentils mixed with rice, dairy free feta cheese and fresh chopped mint. A bit of fire roasted salsa gives it a modern twist and a kick of heat, “ wrote Brooks.

Theater Review: The Human Comedy Buzz theatre wri

Theater Review: The Human Comedy

Buzz theatre writer Laura Foti Cohen posted this — her 150th review for the Buzz!

“In June 2018, Violet, produced by Actors Co-Op, was the subject of my first theater review for The Larchmont Buzz. Since then, it’s been a fascinating journey that has included pandemic-inspired outdoor performances and Zoom productions, as well as a wide range of more traditional (and non-traditional) theater. These past five years have taken me from the all-you-can-drink firehose of the Hollywood Fringe Festival to notable shows like Ain’t Too Proud, Metamorphoses and Poor Clare, and to transcendent experiences like Andy Warhol’s Tomato and Sleep with the Angels.

“Now, almost five years later, this review of Actors Co-Op’s The Human Comedy is my 150th for the Buzz.

“The show is a worthy production that showcases Actors Co-Op’s wide range of talent, both onstage and behind the scenes. A clever and adaptable rotating set, by scenic designer Tim Farmer, is almost cinematic in its ability to present at least half a dozen locations and support an opening tableau featuring the entire cast, a rowdy classroom, an intimate scene for two, and a single speaker.”

Read Laura’s entire review on the Larchmont Buzz 🐝 Tap the link in bio.

The Human Comedy runs through April 23 with performances on Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm and Sunday matinees with talkback at 2:30pm. There are additional Saturday matinee on March 18 and April 1 at 2:30. No performances Easter weekend, April 7-9. The play is performed by Actors Co-Op in the David Schall Theatre on the campus of First Presbyterian Church, 1760 N. Gower St. There is plenty of free parking in the lot on Carlos Ave. east of Gower. Tickets are $35 and can be purchased online.

Two Must-See Programs at The Wallis.

Backstage with the Buzz writer Sheila Tepper has two recommendations for must-see programs at The Wallis: Shanghai Sonatas and George Gershwin Alone.

Shanghai Sonatas: March 16-18. - A compelling tale of how the unifying power of music brings cultures together, Shanghai Sonatas tells the story of Jewish refugee musicians escaping Germany finding sanctuary in the Jewish Ghetto of Shanghai in the 1940s.

Hershey Felder as George Gershwin Alone: April 12-16. This musical masterpiece tells the story of legendary American songwriter George Gershwin, who composed his first smash hit at age 21 and went on to compose a dazzling array of songs still wildly popular a century later.

New GWNC and FoodCycle LA “Glean Team” Helps “Feed People, Not Landfills!”

“Feed people, not landfills!” is the mission of the Greater Wilshire Neighborhood Council’s new Glean Team, a cooperative effort with FoodCycle LA that has begun monthly gleanings of the Larchmont Farmers Market for a community food giveaway at the Wilshire United Methodist Church.

Glean Team coordinator Colette Amin told the Buzz that she used to volunteer as a gleaner (someone who gathers leftover crops or market goods) for five years at the Larchmont Farmers Market in cooperation with the Food Forward organization. The team then took their gathered produce to the LA City College Student Union to distribute it to “anyone who showed up.” But when LACC scaled back the distribution days, Amin said she brought the idea for a new gleaning partnership to the GWNC Outreach Committee.

It took awhile, almost three year but Amin has partnered with FoodCycleLA. Their first collection was March 4. Their next food collection and giveaway will be held on Sunday, April 2, starting with the Farmers Market gleaning from 12:30 to 2:00 p.m. (all the food donations are weighed, and the farmers get a donation receipt for tax purposes), and then the food distribution at 3:00 p.m. in the parking lot on the west side of the Wilshire United Methodist Church (enter from Wilshire Blvd.)

Earlier today we posted that Rossmore Avenue, between Muirfield Avenue and Beverly Blvd., is flooded due to last night’s heavy rain.

Within in hours, Brian Hannan, a Rossmore resident whose front yard is flooded, sent us this photo of city crews from the Bureaus of Sanitation and Street Services, along with LADWP, working to clear the flooding. Hannan told us crew hoped to drain the street today.

“We have had an extremely wet winter and and these issues compound with so much water and debris flowing into our storm drains,” explained Leo Daube, CD5 Communications Director. “We have used our discretionary funds to contract with the LA Conservation Corps to clear debris ahead of the storms, and we encourage residents to call us or 311 to report blockages.”
