We are so excited to introduce Nava Plotsky, our Westside specialist, and Andrew Sanchez, our West Hollywood and points east go-to to the team!
Raised by a real estate investor on the Westside, Nava has been attending Sunday open houses in Mar Vista, Venice, and Culver City since she was 5, and bought her first house in Mar Vista at the age of 22! Over the last 10 years she has worked as a successful Real Estate consultant, flipper, financial planner, and investor in both up and down markets. Nava’s love for Real Estate, business, and design made her a natural fit for ACME. Nava will be serving ACME homebuyers and sellers looking for property in West Hollywood and points west, including Mar Vista, Culver City, Mid-City, Beverlywood, Beverly Hills, Venice, Santa Monica, Pacific Palisades, and Malibu. What Nava offers her clients, beyond an intrinsic knowledge of market value, is the ability to debunk the myth that the process of buying/selling a home has to be stressful and complicated. Nava’s calm, caring, efficacious demeanor gives her clients the clarity to distill their fears and desires down to the purest essentials, empowering them to make bold choices that reflect what they truly want. Nava is committed to combining her top-notch negotiation skills with integrity, honesty, and joy.
Andrew Sanchez is ACME’s West Hollywood neighborhood expert! Hailing from a family of developers and real estate agents, and as a graduate of Ringling, one of the nation’s top design schools, Andrew’s understanding of the fast-paced real estate world, as well as his eye for aesthetics and a home’s potential, helps him match buyers with their dream homes. As a local resident himself, Andrew has a deep passion and knowledge in the neighborhoods of West Hollywood, West Hollywood Hills, Hancock Park, Beverly Hills, Miracle Mile, Mid-City and NELA. Combining his years of experience leading sales teams for a publicly traded tech company along with his creative education provides Andrew the negotiation skills, confidence, and out-of-the-box thinking it takes to get his clients exactly what they want in this competitive market!
We are so lucky to be in the presence of such fabulousness. Contact Nava Plotsky at nava@acme-re.com and Andrew Sanchez at andrew@acme-re.com to talk shop and house hunt!
You have probably been hearing for awhile that “now is a good time to buy,” but what does that really mean? It means properties in Northeast Los Angeles are selling like hotcakes because interest rates are low, and loan programs are excellent (with 3.5% down FHA and 5% down conventional) for first-time homebuyers, AND you may have read that neighborhoods like Highland Park are becoming a domain for the Mom and Pop shops and the first-time homebuyer alike.
The NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Opportunity Index gives the measure of the percentage of homes sold in a specific area that are affordable to families earning that area’s medium income (during a specific time). To check out some interesting stats on affordability, read “Affordability Reaches All-Time High Again: NAHB/Wells” on DSNews.com.
What’s happening as a result? Properties are going in multiple offers over asking so get out your boxing gloves — but don’t be shy! There’s enough inventory to transform whole communities. We are so excited to be part of the transformation!

So the answer is YES! Affordability in the marketplace is at an ultimate high, making now a smart time to buy. Feels to us that the bottom has hit — the market in NELA is strong.
And if you want to sell, and you were waiting for the right time…I would encourage you to put your house on the market NOW. If you aren’t working with an agent, email me at courtney@acme-re.com.
