LA – That’s short for Los Angeles, spanish for The Angels. That should probably now be changed to The Dodgers, which would be Los Esquiveros in spanish.
Mt. Washington is a hillside residential neighborhood in Central Los Angeles with many single family homes that offer views of Downtown LA and Griffith Park.
Many buyers are looking for single family homes with views and pools in desirable neighborhoods near Downtown, Glendale, Eagle Rock, Pasadena, Silver Lake, Elysian Park Lincoln Heights and Montecito Heights.
Many of the hillside homes in Mt. Washington have septic systems, which should be emptied and tested during escrow to ensure that the buyer will not have an extremely expensive surprise after purchase. This is particularly true if the seller was a single occupant, and the buyer is a couple or family. Septic systems are much more likely to get overloaded or backed-up with a large number of residents. The good news is that efficient, maintained septic systems can cost less than City of Los Angeles monthly sewer charges.
These recently sold listings from all real estate companies show the actual prices paid for some of the properties in the past month in various price ranges.
Now that the inventory of Downtown lofts and condos is extremely low, finding unlisted properties is vital to getting the best loft at the best price.Because they are not listed to the general public, buyers can often start with lower offers, with less chance of losing the property to another buyer, while giving more time to negotiate the lower price. As the number of homes for sale continues to dwindle, pocket listings are becoming more rare and more valuable. These properties are not listed with any agents, and they are not on the internet. These off-market properties represent as much as 45% of the best deals in Downtown Los Angeles. Here are few examples:
