The Palisades and Eaton Fires in Los Angeles Have Destroyed 14% of Homes Within the Fire Perimeters
The Palisades and Eaton fires in Los Angeles have caused significant damage to residential properties, destroying or damaging 14% of homes within the fire perimeters, totaling 6,354 homes. Of these, 5,449 (86%) were destroyed and 905 (14%) were damaged. Single-family homes represented 89% of affected properties, with 11% being multi-family units.
The impact has created intense competition in the rental market, with one property being bid up from $16,000 to $30,000 monthly. The fires have disrupted real estate transactions, with some buyers canceling deals and sellers opting to rent their properties to affected residents instead. The destruction exceeds Los Angeles County's annual single-family permit issuance of roughly 6,000, potentially exacerbating the region's existing housing shortage.
Incendi delle Palisades e di Eaton a Los Angeles hanno causato danni significativi alle proprietà residenziali, distruggendo o danneggiando il 14% delle abitazioni all'interno dei perimetri incendiari, per un totale di 6.354 abitazioni. Di queste, 5.449 (86%) sono state distrutte e 905 (14%) sono state danneggiate. Le case unifamiliari hanno rappresentato il 89% delle proprietà colpite, mentre l'11% erano unità multifamiliari.
L'impatto ha creato una forte competizione nel mercato degli affitti, con una proprietà che è stata rilanciata da 16.000 a 30.000 dollari al mese. Gli incendi hanno interrotto le transazioni immobiliari, con alcuni acquirenti che annullano accordi e venditori che scelgono di affittare le loro proprietà agli residenti colpiti. La distruzione supera l'emissione annuale di permessi per abitazioni unifamiliari della contea di Los Angeles, che è di circa 6.000, potenzialmente aggravando la carenza abitativa esistente nella regione.

El impacto ha creado una intensa competencia en el mercado de alquileres, con una propiedad que se ha ofertado desde $16,000 hasta $30,000 mensuales. Los incendios han interrumpido las transacciones inmobiliarias, con algunos compradores cancelando acuerdos y vendedores optando por alquilar sus propiedades a residentes afectados. La destrucción supera la emisión anual de permisos de casas unifamiliares del condado de Los Ángeles de aproximadamente 6,000, potencialmente agravando la escasez de vivienda existente en la región.
팔리세이드와 이튼 화재는 로스앤젤레스에서 주거용 부동산에 상당한 피해를 주었으며, 화재 범위 내에서 14%의 주택가 파괴되거나 손상되었습니다. 총 6,354개의 주택이 피해를 입었습니다. 이 중 5,449채(86%)는 완전히 파괴되었고, 905채(14%)는 손상되었습니다. 단독 주택은 피해를 입은 재산의 89%를 차지했고, 11%는 다가구 주택이었습니다.
이러한 영향은 임대 시장에서 치열한 경쟁을 초래하였으며, 한 주택은 월 $16,000에서 $30,000로 입찰가가 상승했습니다. 화재는 부동산 거래를 방해하였으며, 일부 구매자는 계약을 취소하고 판매자는 피해를 입은 주민들에게 자신의 재산을 임대하기로 선택하고 있습니다. 파괴된 주택의 수는 로스앤젤레스 카운티의 연간 단독 주택 허가 발급 수인 약 6,000을 초과하여, 해당 지역의 이미 악화된 주택 부족 문제를 더욱 심화시킬 가능성이 있습니다.
Les incendies de Palisades et d'Eaton à Los Angeles ont causé des dommages considérables aux propriétés résidentielles, détruisant ou endommageant 14% des maisons dans les périmètres des incendies, totalisant 6 354 maisons. Parmi celles-ci, 5 449 (86%) ont été détruites et 905 (14%) ont été endommagées. Les maisons unifamiliales représentaient 89% des propriétés touchées, 11% étant des unités multifamiliales.
L'impact a créé une concurrence intense sur le marché locatif, avec une propriété dont le prix a grimpé de 16 000 $ à 30 000 $ par mois. Les incendies ont perturbé les transactions immobilières, certains acheteurs annulant des accords et des vendeurs choisissant plutôt de louer leurs biens à des résidents touchés. La destruction dépasse le nombre annuel de permis de maisons unifamiliales délivrés par le comté de Los Angeles, qui est d'environ 6 000, ce qui pourrait aggraver la pénurie de logements déjà existante dans la région.
Die Palisades- und Eaton-Brände in Los Angeles haben erhebliche Schäden an Wohnimmobilien verursacht, indem 14% der Häuser innerhalb der Brandperimeter zerstört oder beschädigt wurden, was insgesamt 6.354 Häuser entspricht. Davon wurden 5.449 (86%) zerstört und 905 (14%) beschädigt. Einfamilienhäuser machten 89% der betroffenen Immobilien aus, während 11% Mehrfamilieneinheiten waren.
Die Auswirkungen haben einen intensiven Wettbewerb auf dem Mietmarkt geschaffen, wobei eine Immobilie von 16.000 USD auf 30.000 USD monatlich geboten wurde. Die Brände haben Immobilientransaktionen gestört, sodass einige Käufer Deals abgesagt haben und Verkäufer entschieden haben, ihre Immobilien stattdessen an die betroffenen Bewohner zu vermieten. Die Zerstörung übersteigt die jährliche Erteilung von Einfamilienhausgenehmigungen im Los Angeles County von ca. 6.000, was die bestehende Wohnungsnot in der Region möglicherweise verschärft.
