The prices for Westlake Village are being held down somewhat by the distressed sales and listings in the community.  As they are cleared out, it is quite possible that the pressure to keep prices so low will abate and those who are considering selling may get more for their homes, after the distressed properties are sold or greatly reduced.  As it stands now, of the 8 houses under contract of sold in this 30 day period, 5 are distressed properties.  Only 2 of the active listings are distressed, leaving 7 "traditional" real estate sales.  Eventually the distressed properties will be sold ad the real estate market will stabilize and start to recover.  The big question is how long before the recovery actually starts, and the answer to that is anyone's guess.
