Viewing Best N.E.L.A Homes For Sale

Viewing Best N.E.L.A Homes For Sale

Here is a quick way to get information on houses for sale in Northeast Los Angeles. Get on my blog list to receive the latest scoop on what is going on in the N.E.L.A real estate market. It is easy and entertaining.

So, let’s get to it on the deals in houses for sale in parts of N.E.L.A.

90026- Echo Park – Elysian Heights Spacious Property in Echo Park for sale. This is a two for one listing and I do not mean happy hour. The homes were built in 1930 (Spanish Architecture) and the other in 1940 (Traditional Architecture) both with vintage details and great landscaping. They are located on Portia St. off of Sunset Blvd. and are priced for $1.1 million for both homes. The lot is a total of 8189 sq. ft. and the homes combined square footage is 4,984. A cash offer is being sought and thus there should be leverage for negotiations.

90026- Silverlake Home for sale. This home is a short-sale, 2+3, 1135 sq. ft., completely remodeled on a small lot of 2,880 sq. ft., with a guestroom and 1/2 bath over the garage. This Silver Lake home is on Dahlia st. off Micheltorena Dr. north of Sunset Blvd. and has nice panoramic views. Oh yes, the listed price is $559k and the strength of financing will rule the decision by the lender.

90027- Los Feliz Home For Sale. This home is bank-owned so it gets a plus from me. This house is 3,005 sq. ft. on a huge lot of 54,450 sq. ft. and built in 1937 so the charm is there of the era. The price for this Los Feliz house is $976k but once again, being bank-owned the financing strength will rule the decision of the lender. Keep in mind that bank-owned properties bring a quick decision from the lender when compared to a home for sale that is a short-sale. The house is located on Los Nietos Dr. by Price St. and repairs can be negotiated if the right Realtor is used.

90032- El Sereno view home for sale. So, one may say El Sereno has little to offer but it does offer much in value and location. This N.E.L.A home for sale is 2,160 sq. ft. on a lot of 4,960 sq. ft. with outstanding views. This house for sale was built in 1960 and is a 4+3, two level, cathedral ceilings, formal dining room and large balconies. It also boast a fenced terraced yard and plenty of storage along with a attached garage. This short-sale home for sale is another home where financing will rule the decision making. The price is only $399k and a true value located on La Calandria off of Lombardy. A great pocket of El Sereno with much to offer at a great price.

Well, here you have a little taste of what is going on in a few select areas regarding Northeast Los Angeles homes for sale in Los Feliz, Echo Park and El Sereno real estate markets.

Data For Home Buyers

 Various real estate data sources suggest that real-estate prices hit a bottom some time during the second quarter, and September is seeing strong activity in the NELA communities. It is clear that area home prices are holding steady and clearly home prices are no longer in free-fall.

The Home Buyers Credit Program now puts a time limit on home buyers to act. Real Estate in Northeast Los Angeles is in strong demand if the home has character and atmosphere. Every real-estate market is the local N.E.L.A. neighborhoods have a different variety in home sales price due to certain factors of home & location. Great opportunities for home buyers are to be taken quickly as the Nov.30 Tax Credit deadline approaches.

Los Feliz – Mt. Washington Home Market

filed under: North East Los Angeles Buyers News posted on May 18th, 2009

Custom Craftsman Home

Recently there was an article published stating how desirable the Los Feliz area of north east Los Angeles is;

90027
Metro: Los Angeles
Annual listing price change: +14%
Average listing price: $1.379 million
Days on the market: 130 days

The listing price for higher-end homes in this affluent neighborhood north east of Los Angeles have remained relatively strong. Los Feliz, a former Spanish land grant, is home to Griffith Park, Griffith Observatory, the Los Angeles Zoo, and the Greek Theatre. It is also the site of several of Los Angeles’ most distinguished architectural residences, including Frank Lloyd Wright’s Ennis House and Hollyhock House and Richard Neutra’s Lovell House. However a direct competitor to Los Feliz is Mt. Washington which offers much of the same uniqueness and character homes at a lower cost than the Los Feliz area. Home buyers should do a little research on Mt. Washington and see what there is to offer in comparison. Visit http://www.mountwashingtonalliance.com/ for some good info on this upscale N.E.L.A  area of home ownership.
