Costa Mesa Neighborhood Homes
Costa Mesa is a competitive real estate market. The reasons for this are numerous including the fact that it is an edge city, meaning it is rather close to area amenities, businesses, jobs, and schools. This makes it a highly desirable place to call home. As of December of 2016, Costa Mesa had about 125 homes for sale. This includes both resale and new construction. And, about 80 homes in the region are in some stage of pre-foreclosure or foreclosure. Foreclosure numbers are significantly improved from several years ago, but it is still possible to find a low-priced, attractive home priced right.
At that time, the median sale price of a home in Costa Mesa was about $715,000. This is also about $472 per square foot. Home prices in Costa Mesa are on their way up as well. Over the previous 12 months, home prices here rose about 4 percent. During that time, about 177 home sold. This shows the demand for quality homes here. The average price per square foot rose by 9 percent during the previous year.
While home prices in Costa Mesa are a bit higher than those in some nearby towns, when compared to rental costs in the city, they remain attractive. The average rent for a single-family home here is about $3,000. That helps to make buying a home an attractive opportunity.
Most of the homes in Costa Mesa are single family homes. Ranches, colonials, Victorians, and numerous custom homes exist here. It is quite possible to find an old-style ranch from the mid-1960's but you will also find custom built homes just a few years old. Some condo developments and apartments exist here as well.
Another option for those looking to buy a home is to build. Custom homes are an option on available open lots dotting the city. Some new developments may exist as well. Home builders such as Trumark Homes, Toll Brothers, and Petros Homes are popular options for homeowners who wish to build their dream home. Many areas have limited available property to build on, though.
