Real Estate in the Beach Cities: December 2010

Great Hermosa Beach Construction Christmas Tree!

I just drove by a future construction site in Hermosa Beach and just had to snap a picture of this Christmas "tree".  Glad to see the construction business has the holiday spirit.  Happy holidays!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.....Winter comes to Hermosa Beach

Here in the Beach Cities snow is rarely in the forecast.....but not this holiday season.  On December 11th the newly beautified Pier Avenue in Hermosa Beach will welcome a day of snow filled activities.  The event will offer a sledding hill, music, holiday movies, Santa Clause (often arriving by firetruck) and even a snowboarding demonstration.  There is a snowboarding competion at 4pm, and tree lighting and Santa will arrive at 6.  At 6:30 a certain number of people buy donations going to the Hermosa Beach Education Foundation will have open access to "Mount Hermosa"

Hermosa Beach Condo Update - 12/3/10

While housing prices have remained relatively strong, the condo market has taken a significant hit since the peak of the market and there are some fantastic opportunities for first time home buyers, buyers looking for rental opportunities and those deciding that it makes more sense to buy than rent in this market.  Below are the current condos on the market.  Of the condos currently for sale 5 are short sales and 1 is a bank owned which is far above the average for Hermosa Beach real estate.
