Dude, Money. Get a grip. Not everyone in Cali thinks alike. You can find lots of felonious builders, county officials and others who will take bribes. And not all of them are lefties, foolish to think so.
It won't fall into the ocean. After it's condemned, the owner will have to pay to have it torn down and removed. This is nothing new in SoCal. As soon as it's gone, they'll build another one a little further back from the edge of the cliff - which will continue to erode.
Money does strange things to people, To the rich It often makes them feel Invincible Smartest person in the room... driving some of their decisions To the edge of a cliff
Whatever the composition, you cannot trust your intervention to build on a clif won't harm the ground structure and become a problem. Humans are so arrogant, there was a reason why our ancestors stayed away from these places.
If those houses slide into the ocean, so much for protecting the ocean life from all the garbage that will result. Seems environmentalists should have protested the building of houses on cliffs in the first place!
Here in the mountains of North Carolina, they are building on the sides of mountains. There must be less restrictive laws here because my friends who are architects in Pennsylvania toured the ares and were in disbelief saying, "These are unbuildable lots...and yet they built here." Buyer beware, i guess- dont get so enchanted by the view.
Tell them to look up a straight up and down cliff with not even one foot of parallel that just went up for sale in my nutty western town! It's on Capital Blvd, Olympia/Tumwater line: one crumbling cliff, buy now!😂🤣 I wanna ask for a tour
No, it isn't. Eventually, it will turn into sandstone and limestone...if it hasn't all washed away first. It's sand with some pebbles and a small amount of dirt...sand dunes. The other week, I watched a video about another place they built on top of sand dunes. But they messed up big time, and the ocean washed most of it away, and the town they built went away. Lost two hundred feet of height before it was over. Also the west coast, but it was either Washington or Oregon. Washington, I think.
My husband and I have walked along the rocks directly underneath that A-frame house and have always looked up marveled that it's survived collapse all these years. You can walk along the cliff side and literally break off chunks of crumbling rocks with very little effort. Such a collapse of this magnitude does not surprise me.
Why does the American taxpayer have to pick up these messes and pay for it? Shouldn’t the engineer that approved these houses have to sit down and answer some questions. It’s pretty obvious there’s some corruption going on here.
Its a the federally subsidized storm and flood insurance. They pay way under what lets say someone that crashes their car every year would expect to pay. They pay as if they have never been in an accident.
Taxpayers don’t pay for any damage that occurs to those private homes unless there is some fault by the city/town or county. People who lost their homes recently in the PV area who were not covered by their insurance were were the beneficiaries of different crowdfunding support efforts. They were not getting any public money.
The ownera may not even have insurance. If you don't have a mortgage you aren't required to have a homeowner's policy. Rich people are often self insured by their bank balance.
You are correct in your Question Start from ground zero Who the hell issued those building permits? No doubt this question will send them scattering like roaches, Pointing the finger at each other As they attempt to escape the accommodability , Enablerably They head to court .... And the lawyers Win again They love all the way to the bank!
It's a hell of a tax base though. That's all CA cares about is collecting more taxes. Want to be stupid and build a house there ? Sure, we have a special tax for you😅 Turns out, they can tax stupid.
We've known for decades that hills near the ocean are unstable. Yet we still see them building on them. San Clemente Beach has had signs telling people not to stand on the edge of cliffs because the sandstone is not stable - these signs have been there for decades. We've had these problems up and down the coast for years. And I'm getting tired of hearing this is climate change. It's not. Southern California has her wet years that slowly become dry years and then again return to wet years. When I was growing up, we saw Malibu flooding badly for a set of 5 or so years, and each year, the residents acted like that each year was a surprise. What the problem really is? Poor planning. You don't build on historically unstable hills and in flood zones. You fix what's been eroding, and you build for the wet years and fires. And as erosion happens, you build new ditches to divert the water better and shore up the hills that are falling. You don't wait until the areas have eroded and flood more often due to geological changes and then blame climate change because you decided it wasn't worth fixing.
@@maryegarcia2432 Nah, they are the ones that seem to have more optimism than pessimism about their oceanfront property, now that more of their already small area around the home is even smaller, and closer to crumbling and tumbling down to water. The homes are nice, but that's extremely too close for my comfort being that the home is near a cliff/hillside, and it's already known history and (high) possibilities of more landslides. But they knew the risks. That's why the property/home insurance companies wouldn't risk providing coverage(s). So why should anyone else have optimism for the homes/property? Again, they took the risks for isolation, exclusivity, and for the oceanview scenery - on and near a cliff.
El Nino and/or La Nina both cause some major changes. I've heard we are in La Nina now. Not "climate change " El Nino or La Nina happens almost every year.
I did tile work in LA from 1990-'94. '93/'94 were great years. '93; fires & mudslides. '94; earthquake. We worked on 5 homes 3 times each in Malibu. The idiots rebuilt in the same spot each time.
Same things happen in wildfire areas in Northern California. It's just a matter of time when they'll get burned out again and lose everything.. it's insanity
Gee, not a surprise. Calif builds recklessly. A bit arrogant don’t you think? I’m from California since 1956. These severe weather conditions have always been a threat.
Their homes are heavy, therefore the state should bring a lawsuit against the buyers and builders for building and buying, knowing full well one day They would cause more pollution in the ocean.
This really breaks my heart. I've started a petition to raise property taxes on everyone else so we can all chip in and pay for these multi millionaires to rebuild their homes. Sign it here
Living in a house near a seaside cliff in California is like tongue kissing a rattlesnake. They actually think that we feel sorry for them when they find out how dangerous it is. After the house is sliding down into the ocean. Just be grateful that you didn’t get injured or killed. That your money somewhere else and live happily ever afterwards 🇺🇸
This is erosion over time. I would like to see older pictures depicting what these cliffs looked like when they moved in. Pretty sure these had plenty of land then.
The California coastline belongs to EVERY CALIFORNIAN and should never have been sold to anyone for their own 'exclusive private property' in the first place.
Anyone hanging millions of dollars near a cliffs edge should never be surprised when the cliff moves closer during to the natural activity of the land. And insurance should never cover the loss!
would had never built so close to edge like some of those homes are -same way they do with beach homes in Florida ,so close to the sea --then complain when there homes are being destroyed by high surfs and sand being washed away into sea...the view is pretty and its nice to live so close but[ not wise]...
It has never in history made sense to build a home sitting on the edge of the water. If they built it at minimum a mile away from the edge, you would still have the views and much less chance of falling into the water anytime soon.
I'm not an architect but I wouldn't build a mcmansion on the edge of a sandstone cliff to begin with. This episode brought to you by the same hubris behind the Titanic.
2.5 miles away from cliff and water , and to be safer 5 miles away make a walk trail to the edge and water ,and you must build the homes foundation like the bridges foundation on water for super strength.
lol if these were middle class homes they all would be red tagged. But since they belong to rich people, they will more likely spend city tax money to rebuild the cliff
It's not climate change. It's El Niño whih brings the "pineapple express." PE is a plume of water back to Hawaii. I used to live in CA and El Niño years we would get hammered with rain. Rivers would flood, land along rivers fell into the water taking homes with it, etc. We have been in drought for years and we get two wet winters. They call it "climate change." 😂🤣
These houses are built on fine dust blown there over the Ice Ages cycles. It turns to powder very easily as we can see! There is NO foundation to tap into unlike the East Coast which has no Ice Age dust (the winds blew off the glaciers to the west, the east has ocean winds during Ice Ages).
Maybe if they rearrange the furniture on the deck it will hold..? The city not tagging these houses is insane probably they have their own agenda $ for doing so. But seriously the people living there are in danger. Any new rain will weaken it more.
Think of it this way: The coast is in a constant state of erosion. This is a known fact. So those who purchased homes on the cliff with the beautiful view, knew going in that it is a temporary home. In fact, these homes should be non-insurable. Owners should be forced to pay cash for the home or show proof of self-insurance. It's a temporary, beautiful view, then it's gone! Get over it...
They are billionaires. They build in the moat unsafe places because they have so much money that if anything happens it's just a drop in the bucket to them. Insurance possibly too. Most likely only one of their homes. Most people build somewhere safer because they can't take the loss. Meaning they can't rebound from a loss like that. Considering they was that close to the cliff edge already. They had to know that was a possibility to build in the most unstable locations.
This has been an issue for decades and it's been happening for decades. The earthquakes you can build for, but the wildfires & heavy rain has always been cyclical. The firestorms are getting worse, they're actually burning the topsoil & the ability to regenerate. Conservation groups can't keep up with planting new trees because so many thousands of acres are lost. Then the rains come & this happens year after year. People with more money than sense.
The insurance companies should cancel their policies, what? Do they think the land will just stop eroding? Everyone get ready for your insurance to go up again…
Didn't we learn this situation in Sunday School many years ago?-----> "The foolish man built his house upon the sand.....and the rains came tumbling down"
Jealous much? Funny though they have more money than you'll ever see in your lifetime,They can rebuild with pocket change. This is South Orange County, chump
How did they determined these homes are safe? What is the foundation for these homes? Are their pilings underneath and how deep? Not enough information is given here.
Cities don't fix anything like this. Erosion is a never ending process; so how nieve is it to build there?! Unimaginable any bank would underwrite a mortgage on any of these homes!!
You built a house. On a cliff. In a state known for erosion and earthquakes. Genius. Pure genius.

Rivers would flood, land along rivers fell into the water taking homes with it, etc. We have been in drought for years and we get two wet winters. They call it "climate change." 😂🤣
These houses are built on fine dust blown there over the Ice Ages cycles. It turns to powder very easily as we can see! There is NO foundation to tap into unlike the East Coast which has no Ice Age dust (the winds blew off the glaciers to the west, the east has ocean winds during Ice Ages).
Makes sense.
Maybe if they rearrange the furniture on the deck it will hold..? The city not tagging these houses is insane probably they have their own agenda $ for doing so. But seriously the people living there are in danger. Any new rain will weaken it more.
It's raining right now!
It may be reasonable to say presently that the prices for these homes have plummeted.
Think of it this way: The coast is in a constant state of erosion. This is a known fact. So those who purchased homes on the cliff with the beautiful view, knew going in that it is a temporary home. In fact, these homes should be non-insurable. Owners should be forced to pay cash for the home or show proof of self-insurance. It's a temporary, beautiful view, then it's gone! Get over it...
They have said for over 30 years that California will eventually fail into the ocean.
Thats living the life on the edge.
They are billionaires. They build in the moat unsafe places because they have so much money that if anything happens it's just a drop in the bucket to them.
Insurance possibly too. Most likely only one of their homes.
Most people build somewhere safer because they can't take the loss. Meaning they can't rebound from a loss like that. Considering they was that close to the cliff edge already. They had to know that was a possibility to build in the most unstable locations.
That’s exactly what I always say. They have billions, nothing to lose.
This has been an issue for decades and it's been happening for decades. The earthquakes you can build for, but the wildfires & heavy rain has always been cyclical.
The firestorms are getting worse, they're actually burning the topsoil & the ability to regenerate. Conservation groups can't keep up with planting new trees because so many thousands of acres are lost. Then the rains come & this happens year after year. People with more money than sense.
That is too bad for these poor millionaires but we need the rain
It's not freaking climate change! We've had torrential rains for all of history 🤯
"The view is pretty spectacular".... and the view is just as spectacular 30 ft further from the cliff, but MUCH safer.
The insurance companies should cancel their policies, what? Do they think the land will just stop eroding?
Everyone get ready for your insurance to go up again…
They should. Maybe done build your home along the lake shore or ocean 😊
In the Boulders in Scottsdale there are literally boulders above homes.
🤣🤣😂
🤣🤣😂
Not climate change. El Nino is a natural event and bring extreme flooding and this year's summer will be brutal
Didn't we learn this situation in Sunday School many years ago?-----> "The foolish man built his house upon the sand.....and the rains came tumbling down"
Gravity and mudslides eating the rich and why I love to see it 😂
Jealous much? Funny though they have more money than you'll ever see in your lifetime,They can rebuild with pocket change. This is South Orange County, chump
Ohhhh, The view!
soon: The experience!
How did they determined these homes are safe? What is the foundation for these homes? Are their pilings underneath and how deep? Not enough information is given here.
Those houses are anchored to bedrock,flintstone like
Just another day in paradise.
I have no idea why people live in CA anyway.
My thoughts exactly!
Cities don't fix anything like this.
Erosion is a never ending process; so how nieve is it to build there?! Unimaginable any bank would underwrite a mortgage on any of these homes!!
