House Hunt: Seal Beach, Rossmoor and Los Alamitos

Interesting goings-on in the local real estate market as we’ve seen a flurry of activity from buyers lately.  We have experienced a significant increase in open house attendance and, in numerous cases, both with us and other agents, attractive and well priced listings are being snatched up as quickly as they hit the market.  In some cases  with multiple offers for sellers to consider. 

Attractive listings have good curb appeal and are at least neat and clean.  They don’t necessarily have to be all fixed up or remodeled, however.  Well-priced is totally a function of knowing the current market and being realistic in how a property compares to others that actually have sold recently.   

If you are currently looking for a home in Seal Beach or Rossmoor, here are some to consider as described by the listing agents:
