Home Sales On the Rise in the Beach Cities

May 2013 was a big month for both the number of home sales and prices in the cities of Manhattan Beach, Hermosa, Redondo Beach and El Segundo.  Both the number of sales and home prices were on the rise.  The chart below paints a pretty clear picture that the number of homes for sale, as well as pending sales and closed home sales is on the rise.  According to local real estate expert Keith Kyle, “as we see the inventory of new listings rise we should start to see the return of a balanced market.   We had a very unusual turnaround in which we went directly from a buyers market to a sellers market and never really reached an equilibrium.”

Hollyglen Real Estate Sales way up and Inventory On the Rise

Hollyglen Real Estate UpdateLuxury primary bedroooms

One of the best kept secrets in the South Bay is the neighborhood of Hollyglen, a small pocket of Hawthorne just west of the 405 freeway.  The neighborhood has it’s own award-winning school district and has a friendly and quiet feel that rivals the Torrance neighborhoods of Southwood and West Torrance.  The biggest challenge for buyers over the past few months has been the lack of inventory and quickly rising prices.  That may be changing, however, with a significant increase in the available homes.  At the moment there are 7 single family homes available in the Hollyglen and Del Aire areas (all west of the 405 which has significant value differences from the area east of the 405) and a whopping 17 homes currently in escrow.  This in a market that has recently seen only a trickle of available homes.  If you’re open for expanding your search consider other homes for sale in Hawthorne CA.   Below are the current listings as of May 7th 2013.  For the most up to date list visit our Hollyglen real estate site.

Fusion and 360 South Bay Hot Real Estate Markets

With inventory continuing to decline the condo and townhome markets in the Hollyglen communities of 360 South Bay and Fusion South Bay have continued their torrid pace.  Both complexes are located along Aviation Blvd in the area of Hawthorne known as Hollyglen.  Fusion South Bay was completed in 2007 and 360 South Bay began releasing units in the past 2 years, so both offer a very affordable way of getting new or newer construction in the area which is very rare in the South Bay.  According to Manhattan Beach realtor Keith Kyle “many home buyers in the area often start their search looking for homes in Redondo Beach and find that in the mid $400K -$550K range what they can afford is much older and smaller.  Fusion and 360 offer a similar location, great schools and a much lower price point.  Simply put you get much more for your money.”

The market has been very active with 8 resale units currently in escrow.  360 is still currently releasing new construction units and most are not on the MLS so there are a number of additional sales not noted below.  As of March 13th there are no active condos or townhomes for sale in Fusion but click below for the latest list of homes for sale as it’s continually updated.

Hot Real Estate Market in Hollyglen and Del Aire

Hollyglen and Del Aire Real Estate Market UpdateKeith Kyle realtor for sale sign

The month of February 2013 saw a big number of home sales in the Hollyglen and Del Areas of Hawthorne, CA with 12 homes sold.  Of the 12 homes sold  8 were single family homes with 4 being condos or townhomes in the 360 South Bay complex or the Fusion South Bay.  One of the homes was a bank owned property with all others being standard sales.  Hollyglen is a wonderful somewhat “secret” neighborhood in Hawthorne CA located west of the 405 between Rosecrans and El Segundo Blvd.  It has a wonderful community feel and it’s own award winning school district, Wiseburn, that it shares with parts of Del Aire, another neighborhood of Hawthorne CA that sits east of the San Diego freeway.  Click to view the current Hollyglen and Del Aire homes for sale as well as recent Hollyglen home sales.  Below is a full list of February home sales in the Hollyglen and Del Aire areas.

Fusion South Bay Townhome Inventory Finally on the Rise

Townhomes for sale in Fusion South Bay

Fusion South Bay, the townhome community in the Hollyglen area of Hawthorne built in 2006 and 2007, has seen large fluctuations in inventory and demand and lately we’ve seen more of the same.  The complex had been hit with a wave of foreclosures and short sales in 2011 and parts of 2012 which had driven prices way down and demand along with it.  The last quarter of 2012 saw the market pick up considerable with few homes on the market but that appears to be changing.  We’ve seen several listings in January and prices seem to be on the rise as well.  Click on the homes below to see the current townhomes for sale in Fusion South Bay.
