Calabasas, Hidden Hills and the Conejo Valley Neighborhoods
6 neighborhood guides for sellers and buyers.
West of the Los Angeles city line, Calabasas and Hidden Hills are gated and estate markets, and the Conejo Valley communities of Agoura Hills, Oak Park, Westlake Village and Thousand Oaks offer master-planned neighborhoods, lake and golf communities and top-rated Las Virgenes and Conejo Valley schools. These are separate cities or unincorporated county, so City of Los Angeles rules such as Measure ULA and the 9A report do not apply. The Woodland Hills office at 6263 Topanga Canyon Blvd is the closest base.

Conejo Valley seller questions
Does Measure ULA apply in Calabasas or Hidden Hills?
No. Calabasas and Hidden Hills are their own cities, and the Conejo Valley communities are in Ventura County or unincorporated Los Angeles County, so the City of Los Angeles transfer tax and Measure ULA do not apply. That difference can be worth a large sum on an estate sale and is one reason buyers compare Calabasas with Encino and Tarzana.
What should sellers in gated communities prepare?
HOA documents, architectural approvals for any additions, the gate access plan for showings, and a marketing plan that reaches buyers through agent networks since drive-by traffic does not exist behind a gate. Fire insurance availability and brush clearance records matter in Calabasas, Hidden Hills and the Conejo hills.
Which office serves these communities?
