YIKES! There are 539
Condos for Sale in Long Beach!

 

Need a little perspective?

9/28/2008!  This means that it will take
about 10.5 months to sell off the existing inventory of homes.  That does not take into account new listings
entering the Long Beach Real Estate market.

Lowest Priced one
bedroom condo for sale in Long Beach?

$64,000, 1 bedroom, 1 bath, 660 sq ft in Bixby Knolls.  But don’t go getting all excited, its not a
real price folks, it’s the starting price for an auction and there are other
costs involved as well.  You remember the
old saying, “If it sounds too good to be true…. It’s probably too good to be
true!” 

 

 

Highest Priced one
bedroom condo for sale in Long Beach? 

133 N The Promenade #405 in Downtown Long Beach Condo for
Sale is a 1 bedroom, 3 bath, 2,461 sq ft Penthouse, with HOA dues of $604 and
central air and heat which has been on the market for a short 10 days.  This unit went on the market this time at
$689,000 the price was changed the same day to $740,000.  Yes, that is curious!  This is a Short Sale believe it or not, built
in 2007. City lights view. 
Hmmmmmmm…………..  What? No ocean
view for that price???  Can you smell
another foreclosure coming? 

While only on the market for an apparent short 10 days, this
property was actually recently removed from the market to be put back on as
new.  Previously listed on 6/10/2008 for
$950,000, reduced the same day to $789,999, then reduced to $740,000 on
9/12/2008 and removed from the market the same day. 

Can you say psychotic? 

 

There are 303 two
bedroom Long Beach
condos for sale ranging in price from $80,000 to $1,495,000. 

• 40
  have 1 bathroom
• 249
  have 2 bathrooms
• 14
  have 3 bathrooms

• 55
  indicate no parking (some of these have parking but it is not indicated on
  the MLS)
• 117
  indicate 1 available parking space or garage
• 130
  indicate 2 available parking spaces or garage combination
• 1
  indicates 3 available parking spaces or garage combination

Since 3 parking spaces are so very rare here in Long Beach here is
further information on that particular unit:

2121 E 1st
Street #307 is 2 bedroom, 2 bath, 1,264 sq ft, HOA
$183 Long Beach Condo located in the heart of the Bluff Park Historic District
and is just 1 short block to the beach.  
It is a Probate sale, being sold as is, and is not subject to court
approval.  This unit has been on the
market for 109 days, originally priced at $524,900 back on 2/13/2008, reduced
several times to its current list price of $420,000. 

Since 2 bedrooms so rarely are available at anywhere near $80,000
here is further information on the 2 that are available at that incredible
(realistic?) price:

3245 Santa Fe Ave #71 is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath, 730 sq ft
first floor unit with a carport and HOA $215. 
This is a Short Sale that has not been approved by the bank and has been
on the market for 160 days. 

3265 Santa Fe Ave #138 is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath, 730 sq ft,
HOA $185, no parking indicated which is likely incorrect.  This unit is a bank owned foreclosure and has
been on the market for 51 days.
