55+ Active Senior South Bay Market Update

March 10, 2023 by Krystyna

55+ Active Senior South Bay Market is extremely tight. There is a growing demand for seniors wishing to downsize, sell their large homes and move to worry and maintenance free condos in one of our gated senior communities. South Bay is known for safe neighborhoods, beautiful beach, close proximity to Downtown Los Angeles, the airport. Unfortunately, no new over 55 communities have been build in South Bay in recent years. This results in a very limited inventory of homes for sale in the existing communities.

As of today, only 8 senior condos are listed for sale in Torrance and Redondo Beach.

The prices range from $330,000 for a studio at The Gables in West Torrance to a 2 bd unit at New Horizons Torrance listed at $699,000.

7 of those available 55+ condos are located in Torrance, only 1 is available at Breakwater Village in Redondo Beach. This is a quite common situation since most of South Bay’s senior communities are located in Torrance.

Home Price Forecast

October 25, 2021 by Krystyna

Home prices, in South Bay and most of the country, have increased significantly over 2020, which in turn has grown the net worth of homeowners. Appreciation and home equity are directly linked – as the value of a home increases, so does a homeowner’s equity. And with these recent gains, homeowners are witnessing their financial stability and well-being grow to record levels.

In more good news for Torrance and South Bay homeowners, the most recent Home Price Expectations Survey – a survey of a national panel of over one hundred economists, real estate experts, and investment and market strategists – forecasts home prices will continue appreciating over the next five years, adding to the record amount of equity homeowners have already gained over the past year. Below are the expected year-over-year rates of home price appreciation from the report:

home price forecast — Home Price Increase Projection

Home prices are climbing today, and the data in the survey indicates they’ll continue to increase, but at rates that approach a more normal pace. The amount of household wealth a homeowner stands to earn in the future is substantial. This truly becomes clear when we consider a scenario using a median-priced home purchased in January of 2021 and the projected rate of appreciation on that home over the next five years.

As the graph below illustrates, a homeowner could increase their net worth by a significant amount – over $93,000 dollars by 2026.

household growth projections — Projected Household Wealth Growth

CoreLogic recently released their quarterly Homeowner Equity Insights Report, which tracks the year-over-year increases in equity. It shows an average annual gain of $33,400 per borrower over the past 12 months. In the report, Dr. Frank Nothaft, Chief Economist for CoreLogic, further explains:

“Double-digit home price growth in the past year has bolstered home equity to a record amount. The national CoreLogic Home Price Index recorded an 11.4% rise in the year through March 2021, leading to a $216,000 increase in the average amount of equity held by homeowners with a mortgage.”

The expected, sustained growth of home prices means homeowners can continue to build on the past year’s record levels of home equity – and their financial prosperity. It also presents today’s homeowners with a unique opportunity: using their growing equity for a home upgrade.

With so few homes available to purchase and strong buyer demand, there may not be a better time to sell your current house and move into one that better meets your needs such as a 55+ community.
