EP. 29 | S2 - Beach Markets with Ann Howarth

In this episode of REAL VC, we sit down with Ann Howarth to break down what makes Ventura County beach real estate so different from the rest of the market. From Silver Strand to Oxnard Shores, we explore how lifestyle, limited inventory, and buyer emotion drive pricing and demand along the coast. We also discuss the types of buyers these areas attract and how beach properties behave differently during market shifts. With insights into everything from second homes to long-term value, this conversation highlights why coastal real estate operates on its own set of rules. If you’ve ever wondered what really drives beach home values, this episode gives you a closer look.To stay updated on the podcast, follow @upmarket.media and @katie.connelly.realtor on Instagram.Real VC is a podcast devoted to serving the Ventura County California Real Estate Community.
