A typical San Fernando Valley homeowner can sell a modest 1950s house and buy a much larger, newer home in West Palmdale or West Lancaster for roughly half the price, often ending up with a lower payment and significant cash in the bank, in exchange for a longer commute. Beyond Estates has agents in both the SFV and the AV and runs both closings with one team, coordinating timing with free movers and up to 3 months of storage. Call (661) 441-3706.
The equity math
Sell a Valley home with substantial equity, buy in the AV for far less, and either carry a smaller mortgage or buy outright. With Prop 19, owners 55+ can carry their low tax base to the new home anywhere in California. Many of our clients also keep the Valley home as a rental and buy the AV home with a new loan.
The commute math
SFV to Palmdale is about 45 to 60 miles. Hybrid workers do it 2 to 3 days a week; many transfer to Plant 42, Edwards, the hospitals or the districts within a couple of years. Full relocation guide.
How we run both sides
- Value the Valley home and pre-approve the AV purchase on the same call.
- List the Valley home with Zillow Showcase, video and a coming-soon push.
- Shop the AV with a contingent or non-contingent plan depending on your equity.
- Line up closings; if they do not align, Beyond Storage holds your things for up to 3 months free.
- Beyond Movers handles the move with the first 2 hours free.
