What’s so great about the Manhattan Beach “sand” section?

Welcome to Coastal luxury in the sand section of Manhattan Beach

Manhattan Beach’s “sand” section is famed for its prime location proximity to the beach, shops, restaurants, and bars with great ocean views and almost perfect weather.

This is one of the most highly sought after neighborhoods in all of Southern Caiifornia. 

One of the highlights of the neighborhood are the  “walkstreets” which are unique areas that provide a much safer atmosphere with an absence of noise and cars. El Porto, the most northern area of the sand section, offers the most affordable option due to the smaller average lot size, and the most sought after property is the impressive beachfront homes on “The Strand” that offer unblockable ocean views.

The drawbacks are the high price and limited space due to homes occupying almost every inch of lot. The lot sizes in the sand section are smaller than the other neighborhoods in Manhattan Beach and it’s one of the few areas that allows townhomes making it a bit more densly habited.

Short sale inventory down in Redondo Beach

It wasn’t too long ago that most buyers had heard all of the horror stories involved with and wouldn’t go near them. In many conversations I explained to buyers that if they were looking for a “deal” a short sale was definitely the way to go. Unfortunately that just doesn’t seem to be the case any longer as short sale inventory is way down and anything initially priced below market value is quickly in escrow with multiple offers and most seem to be selling at numbers much closer to market value. According to Keith Kyle, a South Bay short sale specialist, “it’s a combination of lower inventory and a much more streamlined short sale process in which most short sales are going through. No longer are buyers overly cautious about potential short sales taking 6 months or more like they had in the past.” While short sale may not be the bargain they once were, they still are the likeliest source of well priced homes if and when you can find them. For a current list of foreclosures visit either our Redondo Beach foreclosures site, or our South Bay foreclosures and short sales listings.

Fusion South Bay Inventory Finally on the Rise

Fusion South Bay is a small gated community in the area of Hollyglen. Although in the city of Hawthorne, the community has it’s own school system and has a distinctly different feel than many other neighborhoods of Hawthorne. The towhomes in Fusion offer a great alternative to buyers looking in nearby Redondo Beach and Torrance as prices generally range between $450,000 and $600,000 but as the homes were built around 2006 and 2007 they are much newer and more upgraded than the equivalent price range in neighboring cities.

As of November 6th, 2013 the inventory finally seems to be on the rise again with 4 units currently on the market.
