The sand section of Manhattan Beach offers the epitome of California coastal living. The sand section is the area of Manhattan Beach that is bordered by the beach and ocean to the west, and generally the streets of Valley and Ardmore to the east. What makes this area so desirable is the proximity to the beach and the ocean. The area offers a variety of housing options with oceanfront luxury homes on The Strand, beautiful "walk street" homes with a wonderful sense of community and often sweeping ocean views, townhomes just a few blocks to the beach, and multi unit homes of North Manhattan, known as El Porto. The market is always very active as the demand is always strong for prime beach real estate. As of mid March there are 9 active homes for sale in the sand section, 21 pending home sa...

It's no secret that it's a frustrating world out there for home buyers. Oh how quickly things turned from a strong buyers market to a market clearly favoring sellers. According to Manhattan Beach Realtor, Keith Kyle, "There is incredibly low inventory everywhere and the high demand areas of the South Bay such as Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach have little to offer buyers at the moment". To make life even more frustrating for Beach Cities home buyers, is that the moment a well priced home comes on the market, the frenzy starts with buyers often going way over asking price, waiving the appraisal contingency and simply buying homes above current market value. The chart below sums it up pretty clearly with the number of active homes for sale in the South Bay plummeting from...

I know I was busy showing my luxury listing in Hermosa Beach throughout the holiday season, and I’m quite sure many of the same buyers were viewing luxury homes in Manhattan Beach too.

I’m tracking luxury homes sales in Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach because I have a vested interest in high-end homes in the area since I have one listed for sale in Hermosa Beach. It’s important to know the local market, the competition as well as the absorption rate when devising a marketing plan tailored to the luxury home buyer. For the purpose of this report I’ll refer to all single family home sales over $2,000,000 in Manhattan Beach as luxury properties, and break them down by 2012 sales in each neighborhoods.   Manhattan Sand Section Sales: 44 Manhattan Beach Sand Section single family homes sold in 2012 . The highest price paid was $10.5M for a 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath home built in 2008 and located at 1712 The Strand. Manhattan Tree Section Sales: 25 Manhattan Beach luxury homes...

Redondo Beach did not record any sales over $2M during November.   The priciest sale was a home located on The Strand in Hermosa Beach.
