For this Friday’s Open Thread, we've asked realtors Tara Hotchkis and Dominic Labriola to join us again to answer all of your questions about buying and selling in Los Angeles.

If you have a question, post it in the comments sections. Hotchkis and Labriola will be live with us from noon to 1 p.m., but you may also post your questions in advance.

Hotchkis and Labriola specialize in Downtown LA and the West Hollywood area, so take advantage of that expertise. But they’re equipped to answer pretty much any question you might have about the local housing market, so fire away!
