Aerospace Gets Bigger in the South Bay

The South Bay was grown on the Aerospace industry. Many movies have reminded us of our spacey past .

Cover of The Falcon and the Snowman

Who can forget the Falcon and the Snowman? The Timothy Hutton and Sean Penn characters from their Palos Verdes upbringing and Hutton living in Hermosa Beach while he worked at TRW.
Much of the wealth of the South Bay was born from the space race and cold war. Then along came the 90s. The cold ware ended and many of the contracts left town.

Enter the modern private era of space travel. First there was Richard Branson’s private space flights and that crazy billionaire, Tesla CEO Elon Musk. He has given Hawthorne Space X!
From the website:

SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches advanced rockets and spacecraft. The company was founded in 2002 to revolutionize space technology, with the ultimate goal of enabling people to live on other planets.Today, SpaceX is advancing the boundaries of space technology through its Falcon launch vehicles and Dragon spacecraft.

CITY OF ROLLING HILLS ESTATES

Without a doubt, the four cities that are located on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, are situated in an area that is one of the most beautiful and delightful areas to live anywhere in the world. The Palos Verdes Peninsula is on the southern edge of Los Angeles County, in the South Bay area called the Palos Verdes hills. The four cities located on the Peninsula are: Rancho Palos Verdes, Palos Verdes Estates, Rolling Hills and Rolling Hills Estates. The four cities were originally formed to offer a different and more rural lifestyle and protect the wildlife and the natural setting each occupied on the Peninsula.
The City of Rolling Hills Estates is a gated and private community and has the majority of commercial and retail businesses. It is often confused with its sister city, Rolling Hills. Rolling Hills Estates is a semi rural city occupying about 2200 acres. It has over 25 miles of bridal paths and many properties that are zoned for horses. It attracts those people who appreciate an equestrian atmosphere and lifestyle. The city was incorporated in 1957, mainly to preserve the unique rural residential and equestrian environment.
Sometimes Rolling Hills Estates is referred to as “The Heart of the Peninsula” due to the location of the Palos Verdes Peninsula’s main shopping and retail stores in the city. Within walking distance of Peninsula High School, this section of the city includes an open-air mall called The Avenue of the Peninsula, which has an ice-skating rink, major movie theater, top retail stores, and a variety of diverse services and restaurants.
Over the years since its incorporation, the city has annexed real estate properties that include already existing home developments, commercial or industrial property and other properties with special character or attributes. There are over 30 neighborhood areas within the community today, each with its own special character, architectural style and Homeowners’ Association. The City continues to take an active role in maintaining the high quality of life that makes this community such an attractive place to live.
Rolling Hills Estates is the center for most equestrian activities and on-going events. The Community Services Department of the City of Rolling Hills Estates operates the Howlett Park Equestrian Center and sponsors many of the equestrian related activities.
The children of Rolling Hills Estates are fortunate to be able to attend some of the highest award winning schools in the nation. All of the schools on the Palos Verdes Peninsula are part of the Palos Verdes Unified School District.
Things to do and recreation options are never lacking on the Peninsula as there are plenty of tennis courts, golfing, horse back riding, jogging, biking and just about anything that you might want to do is available here and in the other cities on the Peninsula. Rolling Hills Estates is a great place to live, work and raise a family among the green rolling hills, canyons and vast open spaces.

If Flipping is a Sign of a Hot Market, LA is Hot!

Well, house flipping is back and bigger than ever. No more amateurs on the scene like before, today it’s professional investors grabbing up all the houses and properties and driving up prices.
Redfin has reported that Los Angeles had the highest number of flips in 2013 and 2014, so far. The houses being flipped arn’t just little shacks in run down neighborhoods either. The new breed of flipper have started moving into the higher end market and it seems to be paying off with big gains. The average flip in 2013 made $126,100; thats the sixth highest market in the U.S. following the Bay Area cities, Long Island and Boston.
