“Beauty and the Beast”

The author of this article I ready today about the landslide area in Portuguese Bend, Rolling Hills etc couldn’t have named the article any better.  This is an area that is one of the most beautiful areas between Santa Barbara and San Diego and while many areas within the South side of the Peninsula are “safe” from movement, including perhaps Zone 2 sections of Portuguese Bend (you can read more here … http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=225573987477111&id=126283734095981), the landslide areas have kept this section of town one of the most tranquil and beautiful in all of California.

There really is a silver lining to every cloud!  And I know that many people are detrimentally effected (past, present and future); I’m very sensitive to this.  That being said, I hope you can enjoy and appreciate the “Beauty” within this “Beast”.  Let me add – Portuguese Bend is an area in which my wife and I have aspired to own a home for a long, long time … whether in the slide zone (contact me regarding mitigating strategies) or not … I can only describe it the way Ray Liota and Kevin Costner did in “Field of Dreams” … “Is this Heaven? No it’s Portuguese Bend!” … well Costner said Iowa, but you catch my drift …

Palos Verdes Real Estate Market Changes

Play video to see what’s happening in the market.  You can click the charts to see larger, more readable versions and use the link below to get more insight into the Palos Verdes real estate market


image

In every Palos Verdes home market except for Malaga Cove, the absorption of inventory has improved.  The largest absorption improvement is found in the PVDS, Valmonte, Mira Catalina and La Cresta real estate markets.

To dig a bit deeper into the numbers we really need to understand why the absorption numbers have improved so much in the last 12 months.  Is it because demand (pending sale volume) has increased?  Are there more buyers in the Palos Verdes home market?  Or is it because supply (new listing volume) has dropped?  Are there fewer sellers in the market?  Or is it a combination of both factors.

image

What we’re finding is that nearly for all Palos Verdes homes market areas, inventory, ie SUPPLY, has dropped immensely.  And at the same time, in most of the markets, demand has increased.  Some areas experienced decreases in demand (pending sale volume); however, in these areas, supplies dropped off by a greater percentage making a net result of an increase in the absorption patterns.

Bottom line, the market is firming up, prices are gelling and while no one can predict the future, this positive change is a welcome one for the Palos Verdes real estate market.

Crestridge Senior Housing Project

Senior Housing on the Palos Verdes Peninsula

image

http://www.palosverdes.com/rpv/planning/crestridge/Crestridge-Initial-Study-FINAL-May-2012.pdf

Should you have any comments or questions regarding this project, please feel free to direct them to Eduardo Schonborn at the city of Rancho Palos Verdes via email at eduardos@rpv.com, or via phone at (310) 544-5228. Continue below for project details…

Are you a senior looking to sell your home in Palos Verdes OR know a senior considering doing so? Please contact me for a no obligation market analysis and audit of your home. Find out what the market will pay for your Palos Verdes home. You can get a quick idea of what price the market will value your home by visiting http://homeispv/smarthomevlaue.com

The proposed Crestridge Senior Housing project would involve the development of a senior restricted (55+ years of age or older) for-sale residential community. The proposed project would include 60 attached residential units at an overall density of 6.15 units per acre. Of the 60 units, three units would be dedicated affordable units available to very-low-income households, in accordance with the City’s inclusionary housing requirements. The proposed townhome style and single-level living stacked flat residences would have two bedrooms and two bathrooms in six different floor plans, ranging from approximately 1,700 square feet to 2,100 square feet. The units would be two stories in height with up to 5 residences per structure. The main architectural style of the residences and other onsite structures would be Spanish Colonial. Elements of this style include the use of arches, tile roofs, window grilles, wrought iron, corbels, tile or stone decorative elements low-pitched, exterior courtyards, tiled parapets and stucco walls. Other complimentary architectural styles would also be incorporated in the residential building designs. Construction of the proposed project would require grading in order to reduce the slope of portions of the hillside. This would require 145,000 cubic yards of cut and 2,000 cubic yards of fill. Construction would be completed in the year 2015. The proposed site plan is shown on Figure 4. The proposed project is summarized in Table 1 on the following page. Community Amenities. The project would include a number of community amenities. A private community trail system would be provided in open space areas to the north, near the highest elevations in the area, thereby offering views of the local area and the greater Los Angeles Basin to the north. A portion of the on-site trails including a pedestrian connection from Crestridge to the preserve would be open to the public. The public trails would also connect the off-site City trails on the neighboring Preserve with Crestridge Road through the proposed development. The community trails would also access the proposed 13,000-square foot community recreation area located at the northeastern corner of the site. The amenities proposed for this area would include a patio and trellis, a community conversation and gathering stage, a sundeck and outdoor living room, barbeque facilities, bocce ball courts, and picnic tables.
