Surrounding Lunada Bay Homes … One of the more fabulous locales within the city of Palos Verdes Estates, CA is the section of the Palos Verdes Peninsula on the west side known as Lunada Bay. One of the reasons the area is so high in demand amongst Palos Verdes home buyers is the fact that it is the only section of the Palos Verdes Peninsula in which all three schools, Lunada Bay Elementary (rated a 9/10 with an API score of 940 on GreatSchools.org), Palos Verdes Intermediate (rated 10/10 with an API score of 950 on GreatSchools.org) and Palos Verdes High School designed by world famous architect Richard Neutra (ranked #187 nationally and 30th within California per the US News World Report) are within just a few minutes drive or bicycle ride away.

Los Angeles is in the middle of another March heat wave.  We are having another run of days with the thermometer topping 90 degrees.  The beaches will be overflowing with people this weekend.  Air conditioners will be humming and backyard pools will be in enjoyed as well.   When I first moved to Palos Verdes over 25 years ago we usually "opened" our pool for my middle son's birthday in late April and "closed" it after my youngest son's mid-September birthday.  I don't recall ever swimming in March, but this year summer seems to have arrived early enough for a March morning dip or afternoon lounge poolside.   If you're in the market to purchase or sell a Palos Verdes home with a pool, this early heat wave will have people in the mood to consider buying a home with a private pool for the...

Those were my words when we rounded a curve and this view popped into my line of vision on a glorious view day in Palos Verdes.  We simply had to park the car and capture the view. Views are an integral part of the Palos Verdes lifestyle, and it's not hard to understand why once you are treated to sights like this view of the Queen's Necklace.  The curve of the land where water meets sand and is greeted by twinkling city lights is such a bejeweled vision it earned the name of Queen's Necklace.  It is certainly ranked among the most royal and sought after views on the entire Palos Verdes Peninsula. I love this view, but there are others just as grand and memorable.  Are you in the market to buy or sell a view property in Palos Verdes?  If so, Charlemagne Int'l Properties would be proud ...

Luxury is difficult to define and quantify as its definition varies from person to person and location to location.  However, for the purpose of this article I consider Palos Verdes properties sold in excess of $2,000,000 to fall into the luxury home category. During January six Palos Verdes luxury single family homes sold in excess of $2M.  The sale prices ranged from a low of $3,017,000 for a home in the gated community of Vantage Point in Rolling Hills Estates, to $15,550,000 paid for a gated estate of over 2-acres on Via Visalia in Palos Verdes Estates. There are currently 24 Palos Verdes luxury homes in escrow with accepted offers. 65 Palos Verdes luxury homes are currently for sale.  For more information about luxury homes on the Palos Verdes Peninsula contact Charlemagne Int'l P...

There’s no question the real estate market has traversed some peaks and troughs during the past decade.  If you recall, prices were on a steep incline ten years ago in 2005.  Alas, all good things must end, and the real estate joy ride of rising prices was no exception.  The plummet began in 2008 and continued until the beginning of 2012 when, by my calculations, prices bottomed out and bounced back with amazing speed.  2013 was the year of double-digit gains for many Southern California neighborhoods with stabilization reached in 2014.  That’s a short synopsis of a very turbulent decade in Southern California real estate. Where are we now, and what is my home worth?  These are important questions for every homeowner, or those who are posed to enter the real estate market as prospectiv...
