2023 Year in Review – How Fusion Home Sales Compared with Prior Years

January 6, 2024 by admin

As we mentioned in a recent blog post, home sales in the gated community of Fusion South Bay was at an all time low. We thought that 22 was historically slow with only 8 sales but that was proven outdated as 2023 saw only 6 homes sold in the year. Compare that to the biggest year of 2021 with 21 sold homes and you can see just how slow it is.

That said the home prices continued to go up and go up dramatically (keep in mind that very few sales means each sale impacts the median and average numbers more dramatically). The median sold price was almost $1,000,000 at $979,150 compared which was almost $100K higher than 2022 and $170,000 more than 2021.

Average home price for the 6 homes that sold was an immensly impressive $1,003,050 for 2023.

Take a look below at how 2023 Fusion real estate compared with the prior years.

Our Latest Ocean View Listing in Redondo Beach

December 1, 2023 by admin

While this is definitely not located in the gated community of Fusion South Bay….there isn’t much new in the community so

…..let’s talk about our latest listing nearby! Ocean views anyone?

120 The Village #305 in South Redondo Beach

Welcome to our newest listing in the South Bay. We love Fusion but one thing that the condos certainly don’t have is ocean views. That’s most definitely not the case in Seascape 2 in South Redondo Beach.

From the beautifully remodeled interiors, to the rare and open layout so different from most Seascape condos, to the breathtaking views. This incredible ocean view condo really has it all. From the moment you enter you’re immediately looking at the ocean and King Harbor. To the right are 2 spacious and bright bedrooms and straight ahead is the open living area with stunning views, gleaming floors, stacked stone fireplace, oversized windows and sliders and an adaptable floorplan to perfectly fit your lifestyle.

Visit our 120 The Village #305 website for detailed information, photos, map, video and more.

Unlike most 2 bedroom condo in Seascape with angular walls that limit the layout, 120 The Village #305 takes full advantage of the views out front no matter how you envision your layout. The living room sits adjacent to the extensively remodeled kitchen with new lighting, stainless appliances, brand new cabinets and quartz countertops and custom doors revealing the stackable laundry area. This incredible space leads to the oversized dining area that feature an abundance of windows and forever views of the ocean, coast and harbor. This room can be kept as an incredible dining room or used as an office…..the previous owner cleverly used this space as a third bedroom so they could wake up to the sights of the ocean.

The resort like Seascape 2 offers a beautiful ocean view pool and spa deck along with a small fitness room and locker rooms.

120 The Vlg Unit #305 Info

2 spacious bedrooms
2 remodeled bathrooms

5403 W 149th Pl #6 – 3 Bed Condo Lists for Record $1,155,000

October 3, 2023 by admin

5403 W 149th Place #6 in Fusion – Just Listed – $1,155,000

Listed by Richard Eldred of Coldwell Banker Residential, 5403 W 149th Place #6 in the gated community of Fusion South Bay just hit the market after several days as a “coming soon” listing. This 3 bedroom “J” floorplan is the largest square footage of all the Fusion layouts and at $1,155,000 is looking to set a new sales price record. The list price is clearly based off of the sale of 5404 W 149th Place Unit#7 which was listed at $1,099,000 and closed at $1,155,000 back in June.

5403 W 149th #6 is a very nicely upgraded “J layout”(click to see floorplan) with a major selling point of having all living spaces on one level. The one tradeoff is that there are lots of steps from the garage as the J units sit above the G 3 bedroom units. This home has a number of really nice features including updated hickory hardwood floors, granite counters in the kitchen, fresh paint, stainless appliances and remodeled bathroom. The listing mentions a half bath on the “lower” level but we’re not sure what they are referring to as we’ve never seen that in any other J unit. Some of the highlights of this layout are the open floorplan, living spaces and bedrooms on the same level, larger balcony than normal and huge windows in the living and dining areas.

As with all of the condos and townhomes in Fusion the community is served by the award winning Wiseburn School District.

Community amenities include a very nice pool and spa, small playground, half basketball court and an abundance of landscaped walking paths.

5403 W 149th Place #6 Basics

3 bedrooms
2 bathrooms
J Floorplan (all living spaces on one level)
1,660 sq feet (original builder plans indicate 1,790…..buyer to verify)
$343 monthly HOA
Built in 2007
Interior laundry
2 car side by side attached garage
Gated community with playground, pool and jacuzzi
Listed by Richard Eldred – Coldwell Banker Residential – 310 503-2519

What Are Contingencies in an Escrow During a Home Sale?

October 3, 2023 by admin

What Does Contingent Mean on a House Sale?

By Matt Goeglein at Fidelity National Title

In the context of a house sale, “contingent” typically means that the sale of the house is dependent on certain conditions being met. These conditions could include things like the buyer securing financing, the completion of a home inspection, or the sale of the buyer’s current home.

For example, if a buyer makes an offer on a house and the offer is accepted by the seller, the sale may be contingent on the buyer obtaining financing within a specified period of time. If the buyer is unable to obtain financing, the sale may fall through.

Another common contingency is a home inspection. If the inspection reveals significant issues with the property, the buyer may have the option to renegotiate the terms of the sale or back out of the deal altogether.

Contingencies are designed to protect both the buyer and seller in a real estate transaction. They give the buyer an opportunity to ensure that the house is in good condition and that they can obtain financing, while also giving the seller some assurance that the sale will go through if the conditions are met.

Types of Home Contingencies

There are several types of contingencies that can be included in a home sale contract. Here are some of the most common.

Financing contingency: This contingency specifies that the sale of the home is contingent on the buyer obtaining financing. If the buyer is unable to secure financing within a specified timeframe, the contract may be voided.

Appraisal contingency: This contingency specifies that the sale of the home is contingent on the home appraising for at least the purchase price. If the appraisal comes in lower than the purchase price, the buyer may have the option to renegotiate the price or back out of the deal.

Inspection contingency: This contingency specifies that the sale of the home is contingent on a satisfactory home inspection. If the inspection reveals significant issues with the property, the buyer may have the option to renegotiate the terms of the sale or back out of the deal.

Sale contingency: This contingency specifies that the sale of the home is contingent on the buyer selling their current home within a specified timeframe. If the buyer is unable to sell their current home, the contract may be voided.

Title contingency: This contingency specifies that the sale of the home is contingent on the seller having clear title to the property. If there are issues with the title, the contract may be voided or the seller may need to take steps to clear the title before the sale can proceed.

It’s important to note that contingencies can vary depending on the specifics of the contract and the state or region where the sale is taking place. It’s always a good idea to consult with a real estate professional or attorney to ensure that your contract includes the appropriate contingencies for your situation.
