Fusion South Bay Real Estate and Homes for Sale

The Weather May Be Hot, But the Fusion Real Estate Market is Not

by

While we should be seeing numerous homes in Fusion come on the market each month in the summer….that’s not the case.Fusion South Bay pool and spa

What should be a pretty ideal time to list homes for sale given the weather and the season seems to be a big dud so far. Normally we see a good number of new listings in Fusion during summer. Whether people are just in town on vacation, looking for homes in the Wiseburn School District so they can enroll their kids before September, or just realizing it’s cooler near the beach, summer is usually a busy season.

Not this year with almost no homes currently on the market. There are currently 2 homes in escrow and a third “H” floorplan was just pulled off of the market after 71 days on the market. Just today a new listing finally came available priced at $699,000 which is the smallest “A” floorplan.

Here’s to hoping the market picks up and gets hot….like the weather finally has.

Slow Days in Fusion Real Estate Market

by

It’s been a pretty slow start to the usually busy summer real estate market in Fusion South Bay. While there were a few sales early in the summer, there’s currently only one home on the market. Unlike 360 with a sudden influx of new listings there hasn’t been a new listing in Fusion since the rare H floorplan 2 bedroom became available last month.

So How Do You Find Out About Fusion Listings Before They Hit the Market?

by

Many buyers are interested in finding out about listings before they hit the market…or even better….listings that won’t be coming on the market.  The advantages are obvious and knowing about homes before others can be a tremendous help when searching for a home in a seller’s market.

So how do you find out about these “off market” or “pocket” listings?

Choosing a realtor that specializes in the Fusion community and has a deep network of both owners and realtors is critical.   It’s also critical to work with an agent that is contantly reaching out to those owners and agent to get information not readily available.  We pride ourselves on being top agents in both the Fusion and  360 communities.  We often hear of listings that never make it to the MLS.

For buyers the key is not only to work with a realtor that may know of off market listings, but being ready if the right home comes along.  Unfortunately off market listings don’t stay off market for long, so being ready in terms of loan approval, finances, etc. is an important step.

We are happy to provide our clients with the information we get through our networks but we can only do this for our exclusive clients (not working with another agent) and home buyers that are ready and eager to find that perfect home.  If you would like our help contact us or fill in our Fusion listing alert request page and let us know you are interested in off market listings.

Why So Many 3 Bedrooms Selling in Fusion Lately?

by

Since the original development in Fusion South Bay, 3 bedroom homes have always been rare to the market.  Usually there are only a few 3 bedrooms that sell during the year due primarily to the lower numbers of larger units.  Most of the units in Fusion are two bedrooms with each building having a very limited number of three bedroom homes.  For some reason in the later parts of 2018 and early 2019 3 bedrooms seem to be the norm…not the exception.  The last 2 homes that have sold in Fusion have been “J” floorplans with all 3 bedrooms on one level.  Of the last 8 sales in Fusion 4 were larger 3 bedrooms….that’s just unheard of in the past 5 years.

Get To Know the Neighborhood – Wiseburn School District

by

One of the elements that makes Fusion at South Bay such a great community  is the award winning Wiseburn School District.  Although located in the city ofWiseburn School District in the Hollyglen neighborhood of Hawthorne Hawthorne, Hollyglen residents attend this award winning school system.    One of the main concerns residents have had over the years is the lack of a local high school.  Students that graduated from the local middle school were often then enrolled in the Centinela Valley district.  As of 2015 a bond measure was passed for the construction of a local high school that will be located in nearby El Segundo.

From a real estate perspective the Wiseburn School District has a significant impact on housing values.  Homes in the district are generally priced considerably higher than those outside of the district boundaries…even if just a few blocks away.  See the current homes for sale in that attend the Wiseburn School District**

The Wiseburn Unified School District is a small  public school system in the El Segundo/west Hawthorne area that serves the Wiseburn communities of Del Aire, Hollyglen, and Wiseburn.

The Wiseburn Unified School District has entered into a  partnership with the Da Vinci Charter Schools  since 2009.  These independent charter schools were locally created to provide a high school option for Wiseburn students.  As mentioned above, in 2015 a bond measure was passed allowing for the construction of the Wiseburn High School campus that would house the three separate Da Vinci Charter Schools.
