The South Bay Area of California includes Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills Estate, Torrance and San Pedro and a few other cities, which are some of the most exquisite and popular places to find your dream home.

Home searches begin with finding the right real estate agent. It is totally fruitless to drive aimlessly around South Bay Area communities hoping to spot your dream house. The right realtor can provide you with free home valuation, review the areas and show you what is happening in the housing market. Realtors will negotiate to help you receive the best home price.

Steps to Finding your Southern California Home

Imagine yourself living in the home you have always wanted. Make a list of the features you really want and look at current home listings.

Decide what you need in a home.

Explore the South Bay area to determine where you want to live. Contact a real estate agency who has listings of all the cities in the South Bay area.

Estimate what you can afford. There are online mortgage calculators, and a mortgage broker can help you figure out what you can afford.

Talk to your realtor about prequalifying for a mortgage. Prequalification will help you be ready when you discover your dream home.

Ask your agent to take you to open house events.

Look at many properties. This can be a bit time-consuming and confusing, but spend quiet time in each home and imagine yourself living there.

Move quickly and make an offer when you have found the perfect home.

Palos Verdes, California is one of the most luxurious communities in California. It is called The Hill to residents of the surrounding areas and homes in Palos Verdes have incredible ocean views. Quiet neighborhoods and seclusion from Los Angeles, Palos Verdes offers accessible entertainment, quiet neighborhoods, and security.

Another example of an area for the perfect dream home is Redondo Beach. Redondo Beach is one of three nationally noted beach cities. Here there are picturesque small town neighborhoods and quiet residential streets. It is a hotspot for first-time home buyers with growing families. Redondo Beach is right in-between some of the most expensive real estate markets in the nation.

Your dream home is definitely waiting in Manhattan Beach. Most home listings are off-market or homes that sell as soon as there is an inkling of a sale and not usually found online, but through word of mouth. You will more than likely need a realtor to tour the houses in Manhattan Beach.

If your dream home tastes are a little less expensive, travel to Hermosa Beach. If you are looking for a small beach town atmosphere with accessibility to nightlife, you will find it in Hermosa Beach. There are a variety of things to do, including a Magic and Comedy Club that is always packed and features headliners!

Finding your dream home is more than just properties. It is about people helping people. Pride of ownership in the South Bay is a valuable asset.
