Neighbourhoods
Malibu ColonyOne of the first areas with private homes after May Rindge began leasing lots in the 1920s to Hollywood stars including Anna Q.Point DumeNamed in 1793 by British navigator George Vancouver for Father Francisco Dumetz (the spelling later drifted to 'Dume'); it stayed a sparsely developed equestrian area into the 1960s before ranch-style homes and, later, celebrity estates such as Johnny Carson's 1984 purchase built it into a gated bluff-top community.Broad BeachA historically wide sand beach that has suffered chronic erosion for decades; homeowners formed the Broad Beach Geologic Hazard Abatement District in 2011 to fund and permit ongoing revetment and sand-nourishment work to hold the shoreline.Serra RetreatSite of May Rindge's unfinished 50-room hilltop mansion above Malibu Lagoon, sold to the Franciscan Order in 1942 for $50,000 and converted into a Catholic retreat center; the original building burned in a 1970 wildfire and was rebuilt using surviving Malibu Potteries tile.Carbon BeachSubdivided by May Rindge in the late 1920s as one of Malibu's first residential tracts west of Carbon Canyon; nicknamed 'Billionaire's Beach,' its narrow strip of roughly 70 homes built directly on the sand became the focus of a 25-year public-beach-access fight that the California Coastal Commission resolved against owner David Geffen in 2007.Malibu ParkInland hillside neighborhood across Pacific Coast Highway from Zuma Beach, historically used for cattle grazing and horse property before subdivision into larger residential lots; it lost many homes in the 2018 Woolsey Fire and has been rebuilding since.

VAThe home has to pass, not just appraise.
FHAThe appraiser flags the same condition items.

Auctions & what's moving
No agency publishes one authoritative trustee-sale calendar, so we never print one — here is what actually exists, next to this week's real Malibu headlines.
Every source we check →
Auction calendar
- Los Angeles County Treasurer and Tax Collector — Tax-Defaulted Property AuctionSold through GovEase. Dates and the parcel list come from the county — every source is listed on /auctions/.
- Trustee salesPrivate aggregators carry the actual lender foreclosures; no central California calendar exists. We watch four of them and bid for you.
- Came off the market unsoldListings leave without selling every month. Registered members see those addresses.
