Rapper, actor, and TV host Alvin Nathaniel Joiner—professionally known as Xzibit—is hoping to find a new owner for his posh place in the Los Angeles suburb of Porter Ranch. The swanky home was recently listed for $3,850,000.

Xzibit purchased the 5,710-square-foot spread for $2,436,000 in 2017, when it was brand-new. And it appears to have been kept in pristine condition.

The home was initially listed in July 2022 for $3,995,000.

The residence is located in the guard-gated community of Westcliffe, about a half-hour drive from Hollywood—an advantageous location for anyone looking to avoid the paparazzi.

This week’s properties are on the Upper East Side, in South Harlem and in Hunters Point.

The rent may still be too damn high, but at least it isn’t skyrocketing anymore.

That’s the message from the Realtor.com® monthly rental report, which shows a welcome cooling-off after the craziness of the COVID-19 pandemic period.

Rental prices in the largest metropolitan areas across the country rose 11.6% for the full year in 2022 but downshifted steadily throughout the year. By December, prices were only 3.2% higher, compared with the same month a year earlier.

Nationally, the median monthly rent was $1,712 in December—down $69 from the peak in July.

In March 2020, Mark Joseph bought his first home: a spacious three-bedroom, 2.5-bedroom house in Saint Louis. He and his wife had recently had their second child, and they badly wanted more square footage.

Even in those earliest days of the COVID-19 pandemic, the housing market was very competitive. Joseph was convinced “someone else would swoop in and take it away if I didn’t make a strong offer,” he says, so he paid more than the asking price.

When Joseph moved in, he noticed the HVAC system, plumbing, and electrical wiring were in need of some costly repairs as he’d skipped having them inspected. That unexpected work exceeded his initial budget.

Joseph, founder of Parental Queries, a website devoted to pregnancy and child rearing, has since had trouble keeping up with his mortgage payments. And despite his home value rising, it hasn’t gone up as much as he initially anticipated.
