Redondo Beach Schools – How they Score

award winning redondo beach schools

By Keith Kyle

Without question one of the many reasons people want to live in Redondo Beach is the highly ranked Redondo Beach Unified School District.  From the elementary schools to Redondo Union High School, the district has a lot to offer and always ranks high in state test scores.  Redondo Union was recently named one of the Top 500 Public High Schools by Newsweek.

Increased inventory slowing the market for high end Hollywood Riviera homes

By Keith KyleSouth Redondo homes

A noticeable increase in number of homes for sale at $1,500,000 and above has seemed to put the brakes on a very hot real estate market in the Hollywood Riviera.  The buying public had been clamoring for more homes on the market and now that they’ve arrived, it seems they’re not selling.  The $1,100,000-$1,400,000 price point is still extremely active, but the increased inventory of high end homes has definitely slowed the market.  Certain homes such as the recent listing at 225 Via Alameda which sold with multiple offers right from the start, are the exception at the moment and not the rule.  It’s not uncommon to see these higher price point homes sitting on the market for months which is a distinct difference from some other high end areas in the South Bay.  The chart below shows the number of active, pending and sold homes by month for homes priced over $1,500,000 and clearly indicates almost double the number of homes for sale while pending and sold listings are down.

A Number of Condos Listings Hit the Market in Seascape One Redondo Beach

By Keith Kyle

There’s been a definite lack of inventory in the world of ocean view and ocean front condos in Redondo Beach over the past 18 months.  Prices have risen dramatically as inventory dipped to record lows and demand for the “vacation” style feel of complexes such as the Seascape buildings, The Village and condos on the Esplanade have continued to grow.  At least in one complex there’s been a higher than usual number of homes coming on the market in recent days.  Seascape One is located in the 200 block buildings of The Village (which is unusual in itself as it’s actually on Catalina).  As of July 18th there are 3 units for sale in Seascape One.  Of the 3 2 offer a interior garden view (this is the only Seascape or Village building offering interior facing units) and one offers some pretty significant ocean and harbor views.  Built in 1978 the condos are fairly ideally located just behind King Harbor and walkable to the pier, the beach, and the shops and restaurants of the King Harbor area.
