In 2016, ‘Porcelain’ musician Moby bought a 1920s Los Angeles home for $3.4 million, renovated it, and sold it two years later for $4.91 million, a $1.51 million price increase

His renovation efforts yielded a substantial profit, which is more remarkable than average house flippers achieve. However, the overall housing market in 2024 presents significant challenges for potential homebuyers. The median age of first-time homebuyers has risen, and homeownership rates have dropped in recent years.
