Hawthorne, CA

The real estate market has picked up in the Hawthorne neighborhood of Hollyglen lately as homes have become ever more affordable. It wasn't long ago that it was difficult, if not impossible, to find a single family home in Hollyglen priced under $500,000 but there have been a number in the past few months. There are currently 9 homes on the market with the lowest priced single family priced at $469,000 and the highest priced home at $649,000. The median home price is just under $570,000 and other than the home on 119th no home has been on the market longer than a month. There are currently 5 homes in escrow with 6 homes having closed in June of 2009

For over a year now, the Wiseburn community has been rallying to get an empty, unused lot on 133rd Street, converted into a "pocket park" that everyone could enjoy. Instead, over the years the residents have been subject to an unsightly, sometimes dangerous, lot that serves no purpose to the community, now its owners - Golden State Water.

The Daily Breeze just chronicled the efforts of the Wiseburn community in a recent article "Drought sidetracks plans to make a Wiseburn vacant lot a park." Click here to read this article on the continuing efforts to beautify the wonderful community of Wiseburn.

As has been the case for the past 6 months, the Fusion South Bay housing market seems to come in waves. It wasn't long ago that many of the homes were sitting on the market with some going in and out of escrow but few of the townhomes selling. The inventory was piling up, opportunities for home buyers were becoming greater, and then everything seemed to sell at once. There are currently 7 units at some stage of the sale process with only one home active and 6 currently in escrow. If you are interested in viewing any of the homes you can contact us or see the South Bay Open Houses. To see detailed information on recent Fusion home sales and current listings click here.
