Beach Cities and South Bay Income Property

By | October 19th, 2013|Beach Cities, Featured Posts, Hermosa Beach, Income Property, Long Beach, Manhattan Beach, Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Redondo Beach, Rolling Hills, Rolling Hills Estates, San Pedro, Torrance|

A prospective multifamily income buyer recently asked me, "Has the spring feeding frenzy in the income property market cooled, or will my offer still be one of many?" The truthful answer is it depends on the location and condition of the property.   Premium properties in choice locations will still receive multiple offers.  On the other hand, fixer properties in less desirable areas will likely present rehab opportunities so they, too, will likely draw multiple offers.  In today's market, it is hard to find a wallflower income property. Last week Norma Toering & Team submitted an offer on  Hermosa Beach [...]

I suppose I really can't call the subtle changes in the local market a cooling trend when Norma Toering & Team currently has one of eight offers on a Hermosa Beach multifamily property. However, last May we had one of 35 offers on a Redondo Beach income property. Where have all the buyers gone? It's no secret the real estate market swells and shrinks on cycles tied to economic indicators. We came out of the long, lingering down cycle last fall and bounced off the bottom of the market with a tremendous force precipitating the astounding rise in local real [...]
