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.

When I was a teenager, I worked at a summer camp for 3 summers. Those were memorable, amazing summers where I reinforced my independance, gained responsibility, and felt pride in earning a fair income. It was also memorable because I saw many ways in which the talented camp counselors positively affected the campers. Year after year, I saw campers return, and many said that camp had affected them positively in some way.

That's why I am more than happy to help out a fellow community member by promoting an upcoming Car Wash Fundraiser for the Young Life group, which is raising money to help send 30-50 kids to summer camp. Here are the details:

WHAT: Young Life Car Wash Fundraiser

WHEN: Saturday, May 30, 2009 from 10am to 2pm

WHERE: Parking lot at the corner of 135th Street and Aviation, in Hawthorne (Holly Glen community)

Come help support this worthy cause!
