Fusion townhomes

Where did all the homes in Fusion go?

By Keith KyleFusion townhomes

It seems that nobody is selling in Fusion these days which is a bit unusual as so many owners in the complex weathered some tough years and homes are once again nearing the peak.  As a realtor who frequently sells homes in this great community, it’s always a challenge when the inventory is this low as there’s simply nothing to sell.  Fusion has always been a very unique market as there are often either too many homes on the market, and they all sit until the first one sells (and then they seem to go like dominoes) or there’s no homes on the market.  The appeal of Fusion is the combination of price, location, and age which makes them a great value.  Built in 2006 and 2007, they sit just east of Manhattan Beach but at dramatically lower prices.  Most buyers often start their searches in Redondo Beach or El Segundo, but after looking at what $550,000 or so gets them in those towns, they opt for the very new, very well located Fusion townhomes.

So what’s an interested buyer to do?

  • The first aspect is to find an agent that frequently sells in Fusion as they may have the inside track into upcoming and off market possibilities.  There are 4 or 5 realtors that work fairly extensively in this gated community.
  • Be patient.  As I mentioned above Fusion is a unique market that seems to go in waves.  It won’t be too long before there are several listings
  • Consider the condos, townhomes, and single family homes at 360.  Another alternative is the community known as 360 which is just a bit north.  Contact us for more information as there are new homes as well as resale listings.

El Segundo is primarily a community of beach bungalows and remodeled homes with a very casual feel. Every once in a while a stunning luxury estate property comes on the market and 840 Center Street certainly fits that description. According to listing agent Raju Chhabria:

The breakfast nook and open family room both lead out to the backyard which features a built-in BBQ, gas fireplace and tranquil water feature, perfect for entertaining!

12 New Townhomes in El Segundo in High Demand

By Keith Kyle

Last month we wrote a market update and explained how the number of homes available for sale in El Segundo had jumped a bit due to the recent completion of 12 new townhome units on the corner of Pepper and Walnut.  The demand for these new units was in full force as all but 3 of the units are now in escrow or under contract.  The townhomes ranged in price between $789,000 to $849,000.  All were 3 bedroom 2.5 bath estimated at 1900 square feet. and fairly ideally located near Main Street and downtown El Segundo.

El Segundo Real Estate Market Update

By Keith Kyle

The market in El Segundo seems to have leveled a bit with the number of homes for sale hovering in the high teens for the past few months.  As of August 25th there are currently active listings in El Segundo.   Although last month saw a significant increase in active listings and this month we see an increase in pending home sales, the numbers are skewed a bit due to the recent release of a number of new construction townhomes on Walnut and Pepper.

El Segundo Real Estate Market Update

By Keith Kyle

Real estate in the South Bay and specifically El Segundo continues at a pretty torrid pace.  Slowly rising inventory should alleviate some of the pressure and we may be heading towards a more balanced market.  July was the new high for active homes for sale with 30, topping the year high of 17 in June.  Median home price of active listings is $799,000.  The primary reason for this significant jump in inventory is due to the two new construction projects at the 100 Block of Walnut and the 900 block of Pepper, a 12 unit project from architect Pat Killen.

Currently there are 14 homes in escrow which is also a considerable jump from the 9 homes in escrow during the month of June.

We are still seeing quite the disparity between the average list prices of homes in El Segundo vs. the average sold home prices.  This is primarily due to sellers often listing homes at a “make me move” type price in which they’re looking for something well beyond market values.
