Brookside Village Alternative – The Village Oceanview Condos in Redondo Beach

April 17, 2019 by admin Leave a Comment

Oceanview Condos in South Redondo BeachThe Village condos in Redondo Beach

If Brookside Village isn’t quite right and you envision yourself sitting on your balcony looking at the ocean, The Village Condos and Townhomes may be an ideal alternative.

Located just east of the Redondo Beach pier, this community consists of studio, 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom condos along with a few townhome style buildings.  The condo buildings all have 3 levels and each level has a similar layout with each floor having 2 studios that are always the furthes east units, each level have 2 two bedroom units (which rarely come on the market) which are the two front units meaning the best views, and everything in between are one bedroom units.

There are generally ocean views from every unit, but they definitely vary depending on location in the building and which floor it’s on.

HOA dues are very resonable and the community has some great amenities.  There is an owners pool, spa and BBQ area, but what makes it really special is the shared access to the Ocean Club (rentals) facilities.  They have a beautiful fitness center, resort like pool and spa, harbor view sitting area, BBQ area and even a small store/restaurant.  As of this writing prices generally range from the mid $400,000s for a studio, to around $600,000 for a one bedroom and over $900,000 for the rare 2 bedroom.  Again prices and value range considerably depending on The Village condos in Redondo Beachhow remodeled the condo is and how good the view is.  Built in the 1970s some condos are still pretty original with some being extensively remodeled.

Overall it has a real laid back beach vibe and it’s a great place to call home.  We sell in The Village quite a bit so feel free to contact us if you are interested in this ocean view community in South Redondo.

Why Use a Buyer’s Realtor in Brookside Village?

February 14, 2019 by admin Leave a Comment

What are the reasons you should use a buyer’s agent?Your local Redondo Beach real estate expert

With more resources available on the Internet, you may be considering buying a home in Brookside Village or Redondo Beach without using the services of a professional real estate agent. After reviewing these 50 services an agent would typically perform for their clients, you may want to reconsider! Remember, agents don’t get paid until the home purchase is complete. It is their job to do the best they can to help you through a smooth experience, save you money and achieve your goal of buying a home.

Here are some of the many reasons to use a buyer’s agent:

  1. Analysis of your real estate needs and determine what housing areas and options might work best
  2. Research properties.  As an expert in the area, the right buyer’s agent can get you detailed information about properties you’re interested in.  Having a realtor that understands the differences between neighborhoods and communities  can make a big difference.
  3. Send you listings that match your needs – the right agent understands what you’re looking for in a home and can send you custom email alerts whenever a new home in Brookside Village, South Redondo, or other areas hits the market.
  4. Provide information pertaining to your move or relocation and short-term stay options
  5. Educate you about home buying processes.  Buying a home has a lot of moving pieces…adding to an already stressful emotional and financial process.  A good agent can guide you through the process
  6. Provide information on market conditions, schools, communities, employment, and more
  7. Discuss your financing needs and options
  8. Recommend qualified mortgage brokers
  9. Make appointments and show properties that works around your schedule.  Open houses are great, but not every listing has them and sometimes a private tour is more beneficial
  10. Provide timely and professional disclosure and research on homes, markets and neighborhoods
  11. Home tour review: pros & cons of each property
  12. Point out important items while showing that buyer’s may overlook
  13. Follow up of loan application with your selected mortgage broker
  14. Help cleaning up your credit if needed
  15. Analyze purchasing timeline and needs once property is located
  16. Free Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) of a property in order to make an educated offer
  17. Call listing agent to get updates on property including interest, offers, etc.
  18. Create and send draft of the offer and prepare paperwork
  19. Research tax and title records
  20. Explain all paperwork before signing
  21. Collect proof of funds from buyer, preapproval letter, personal letter to seller(if warranted)
  22. Generate estimate of closing costs
  23. Write offer, send out for electronic signatures, provide verification to listing agent
  24. Review and explain final contract
  25. Submit contract and follow up with listing agent to confirm receipt and follow up questions
  26. Negotiate contract until mutually agreeable.  Working with and expert negotiator can make all the difference
  27. Set deadlines for final acceptance by all parties
  28. Send the escrow company the executed contract and help get escrow opened upon acceptance
  29. Schedule and attend the home inspection
  30. Schedule and attend the termite inspection
  31. Recommend insurance agents to you
  32. Verify loan process has begun
  33. Obtain all seller and listing agent disclosures and explain documents to buyers
  34. Perform agent “visual” inspection of property
  35. Review home inspection findings with you.  A home inspection (and the results!) can be scary especially for first time home buyers.  A good agent can walk you through the report and explain the differences between thinks that need to be repaired or addressed, and updates and upgrades that buyer’s might like, but sellers may not consider
  36. Negotiate repairs if needed
  37. Help order an appraisal
  38. Assist to meet finance deadline
  39. Monitor and manage contingencies and contingency periods – financing, home inspection, appraisal, etc.
  40. Check on homeowners insurance
  41. Verify that the title agency has all necessary documents
  42. Follow up with the lender on all aspects of closing process
  43. Get information on utilities
  44. Schedule closing: time and place
  45. Review escrow and lender closing statement
  46. Arrange and attend a final walk-through
  47. Ensure that escrow has determined the funds to be brought to closing
  48. Coordinate between lenders and title company to determine amount needed
  49. Explain everything that happens at closing
  50. Arrange closing and access
  51. Give you the keys to your new home!
  52. Follow up after closing – homestead info and insuring that everything is going well in your new home and that you’re a happy homeowner!

Spruce Up Your Landscaping to Attract Home Buyers

December 11, 2018 by admin Leave a Comment

4 Landscaping techniques to impress home buyers and make your home stand out.            

Add Some Color

Plants and flowers can give your homes a more welcoming appeal.   Don’t forget that the curb appeal is the first thing buyers see when they arrive and the last thing they see when the showing is over.  Adding some color greatly improves the curb appeal.

Mulch to make it look fresh

Add mulch to plant beds to keep the landscape looking fresh, well-taken care of and to add a splash of color.    It’s an easy and inexpenive way to make everything look new.

Use Decorative Architectural Elements 

Gates, shutters, grilles, columns and doors all say something about a house. If they’re in great shape, well-painted and rust free, they indicate that the home has been well maintained and cared for.

Size the Landscaping for the Size of the Home

Great landscaping can win over a buyer’s heart as it can dramatically improve the curb appeal. You want the property to look fresh and alive but landscaping should not overwhelm or diminish the look of the property. A common mistake is overgrown shrubbery and unpruned trees. On the opposite end, if the house is brand new and needs some curb appeal, choose plants and trees that will complement the look of the home.  Don’t go too small, however, as it will be counterproductive initially.  While it may look great in the long term, it may make for an unfinished look while on the market.
