LA Times ending real estate newsletter

Jack Flemming of the Los Angeles Times writes about his job change, which will result in ending the real estate newsletter.

Flemming writes, “I inherited this newsletter from real estate journalism legend Lauren Beale and did my best to put my own spin on it. I wanted this series to be a one-stop shop for understanding this bizarre housing market, and if you, dear reader, learned anything about what it means and what it takes to live here, then I have succeeded.

“I can’t thank you enough for subscribing, and please know that I’m not going anywhere. As part of a broader newsroom restructuring, I’ve moved from the Business section to the California section, where I’ll be continuing my coverage of luxury real estate. This newsletter is ceasing so I can have more time to dive into the big stories — all of which will be available on the Real Estate page.”
