Rent keeps going up. The price of a house keeps going up. Want to buy a home in the L.A. metro area? The median price is now $530,000 (up more than 9% in the last year), according to new data from the California Association of Realtors. And we all have questions.
The "California Dream" team -- a coalition of public media outlets across California -- is working on a special for July about this. They're going to take your questions to the experts and wring out some answers.
What do you want to know about this special hell known as the California housing market?
One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.
