Where this price sits in Forest Lawn

Asking $429,999. This listing is not directly comparable with the typical detached homes in Forest Lawn: its zoning (m-c1) is not typical single-family zoning. Lot utility, condition, permits and zoning need individual analysis, so we are not placing it against the $500,000 median sale price (October 2025 – September 2026, 42 recorded sales).
