September Home Sales in El Segundo Dominated by Condos

by

El Segundo CA once again saw a fairly low number of home sales for September 2014.  The real estate market continued to be a sellers market with very low inventory and very high demand in this coastal community of the South Bay outside of Los Angeles.  The bulk of the home sales in September were dominated by condos, which is a bit unusual.  Of the 8 homes sold on the MLS, 5 were condos, one was a townhome and only 2 single family homes.  Visit our El Segundo CA homes for sale page to see the current active MLS listings or visit our recent home sale page for the South Bay to see other months and other South Bay Cities.

Location a Critical Factor in El Segundo Real Estate

by

El Segundo is a fantastic community oriented city in the South Bay. It offers a great small town feel, charming downtown and Main Street areas, award winning schools and proximity to the beach. From a real estate perspective, however, parts of El Segundo do have their challenges….and it’s all about the location. El Segundo CA area Map The challenge El Segundo has is that it happens to have some less than appealing neighbors. Directly to the north lies LAX, or Los Angeles International Airport. To the west lies the Hyperion Waste Water Treatment Plant. To the south lies the Chevron Oil Refinery (although the areas nearest to the refinery of primarily commercial) and to the east is a relatively busy, but nice commercial and retail corridor with high rise buildings, hotels and strip malls. Although each area may require some compromise on the part of buyers, each does offer lower prices than the neighborhoods in the center of town. If you’re working with a realtor, make sure that they are familiar with El Segundo and can offer insight into just what the various neighborhoods are like.

Home Inventory on the rise in Hollyglen

By Keith KyleEl Segundo homes for sale

It’s been a while since we’ve seen more than just one or two single family homes for sale in the neighborhood of Hollyglen which may start to ease some of the pent up demand in this somewhat secret neighborhood. Although it has a Hawthorne mailing address, this great neighborhood is an unincorporated area and enjoys it’s own award winning school system known as the Wiseburn District. Hollyglen sits just north of Rosecrans and just west of the 405 freeway and has remained somewhat of an unknown jewel in South Bay real estate. I has the feel of Torrance neighborhoods of West Torrance and Southwood, with tree lined streets, schools within walking distance, and offer a very safe and social neighborhood feel. As of April 2, 2014 there are 7 single family homes for sale in Hollyglen, with 3 new construction in the 360 South Bay community, 2 additional homes in Del Aire (but west of the 405 so in somewhat similar neighborhood) priced from $544,000 (Del Aire) to $890,000 for a 4 bedroom new construction in 360. Prices for a 3/2 single family built in the 1950s, which most are, generally range lately between $640,000 and $690,000
