The taxes are current.  Yearly property taxes are $826.26. Taxes are billed biyearly for April and December of each year.  Buyer will need to reimburse me for any prepaid taxes. 

Title and Escrow services are available.  The fees for Title and Escrow are split in the traditional manner.  Please email me if you have any questions. 

The property has been surveyed to determine the property lines. You cannot see the lake from the property.

You can save the Title and Escrow fees by purchasing direct from us.  If you decide to buy the land without the use of Escrow, you will only have to pay $249.00 fee to record the new deed.  We will only accept a money order or a cashier's check for the purchase.  So the final price would be [agreed sale price] + [$249 to record the new deed] + [prepaid property taxes].

A building contractor visited the property and said it is buildable.  I am certain that some foundation work will need to be done, therefore, I offer the property far below market value to compensate the buyer for that cost.  The property is on a down slope.  Water is accessible from the street below or from the street above.  There will be costs involved with running water to the property. To discuss the option, please contact:

Malibu, CA has not always enjoyed the reputation of movie stars and multi-million dollar mansions as it does today....you need to realize that Malibou Lake began in 1922 as a get away location for fishing and swimming in the great outdoors. Malibou Lake is right next to Malibu Creek State Park and just over the hill from Malibu itself. But, in 1922 there was no park and Malibu was a ranch owned by a single family. And the Rindge family was quite protective of their property and had developed a reputation over the years for shooting at trespassers...not exactly the sort of marketing that encourages people to vacation at your resort in the mountains. So the founders of Malibou Lake thought a slight name change was in order to give their location a more positive aura. Yes, we realize that changing the spelling to the more well known Malibu would probably increase our property values but over 80 years of history is hard to change and most of us don't plan on moving and therefore aren't concerned with property values....so Malibou Lake is here to stay. However, the confusion is probably also here to stay since many businesses now find greater value in using Malibu Lake in the name of their business as opposed to Malibou Lake. The Malibu Lake Riders are one prominent example. They provide trails rides on horse back in the local area and are a great way to see the local sights even if they are gramatically challenged.

The water flowing over Malibou Lake's dam finds it's way to the ocean at the Malibu Lagoon. Next to Malibu Lagoon is The Adamson House. This house and museum contain a lot of local history about the Malibu area and the Rindge Family's fight to keep Malibu pristine.
