Hermosa Beach at Christmas

This shot from the balcony in Hermosa Beach Sand section is a clue as to why Hermosa beach vacation rentals has some great places to stay. Alas, not this one. But I wanted you to know about the rental world growing in our beach area. Its really cool. Some people come and rent every year for a month over Christmas. Its also great in the summer and doesn't get too hot. www.vacationrentals.com 18 rentals right now..and you will really be surprised at the going rate.

So it doesn't look like Christmas but it really is. And its Christmas all year if you buy something out here and rent it out. You could call a California agent like me and we could help you find something. The best is to get a property with some of your family and create your own timeshare.

I learned something as I posted this. I put the photo first and it didn't allow for me to put in the words. So I deleted it and started over. The world watches the rose bowl and it brings people in droves to move here. I am so happy to be here. The people are mostly transplants like me. I was from Texas Parents, raised in Kentucky and a short time in Florida and lots of summers in Texas and here for 40 years. I said earlier it was 33. That's how long I ve been married to a California guy. I love it here and al 3 of our kids live here. Yes it get crowded and that is why we walk down to the sunset every night to watch. It makes up for the traffic and the time it takes to go anyhere and the gas prices and ....ooops thats everywhere right???

Redondo Beach at Christmas

Each house has a different feel and each city. My last post was Hermosa Beach at Christmas and it looked like any day any month. Its really what they say about the Rose Bowl. People come here when they are showed in and watch our game here. But we really have a go at Christmas even without snow. Its raining now as I write this in the middle of the night in January. We have a whole Christmas lights area nearby that cars line up forever to see the lights. This neighbors home is alway dressed for every season. I sent you Halloween on a previous blog. Now I send you Christmas complete with Ferris Wheel. One side of this street in the "Avenues" has income property 2 on a lot selling in the 1.3+ range and the other side of the street has single family homes.
