Hermosa Beach Home Sales: Catching up to Manhattan Beach

The Hermosa Strand

Hermosa Beach has come a long way from the days when most of the City Council members were renters and Bikers ruled.  The local elementary schools are some of the best in the state and parents have a choice between Mira Costa and Redondo Union for  High School.  

Strand homes  in Hermosa are priced very competitively with  those in Manhattan Beach.   Charming Walk street homes  lure buyers looking for that  small town beach cottage  feeling rather then the more sophiscated homes found in Manhattan Beach.   Hermosa has grown up and  well qualified  buyers with cash are  taking the place of  renters as old rental units are torn down and replaced with owner occupied homes.

There were 49 homes sold during the period from October 1-March 9, 2010.  During that time frame  7  sales were all cash, 22 buyers put down 25% or less down and 20 buyers put down 30% or more.
