Do Schools Make a Difference for 360 South Bay Home Buyers?

November 28, 2018 by

It’s no real secret that good schools help drive real estate values in certain neighborhoods and communities.  Buyers with kids want to be in areas with good schools and that higher demand helps keep values up.  Even those without kids greatly benefit from a strong school system.  The stronger the schools the more insulated a market is from any downturns.

This couldn’t be more clear than in 360 and the Hollyglen/Del Aire area of Hawthorne.  Values are considerably higher for homes in the Wiseburn School District…..even homes that are directly across the street.

With the construction of a high school in the Wiseburn District, the appeal for homes in the area has only increased.

A recent CAR study showed that 47% of home buyers said good schools were very importan, 23% said that they were somewhat important, 11% said not very important and 19% said that it was not important at all.

The 19% may not realize just how much of an influence schools play on values and demand.  Good elementary schools are often part of a good community and without question most buyers would like to live in a good community.

The Wiseburn School District is highly ranked and that creates a very high demand, especially for families thinking of living in this coastal community.

The study also conclued that 43% of consumers age 34 or under believe highly rated schools are very important.  58% of consumers earning more than $100,000 a year think that highly rated schools are very important.

360 South Bay and the Wiseburn School District

June 22, 2018 by

One of the elements that makes Three Sixty at South Bay such a great community and housing option is the award winning Wiseburn School District.  Although located in the city of Hawthorne,  360 sits in the Hollyglen neighborhood and residents attend this award winning school system.  Not only are the schools highly rated, but they offer a great neighborhood feel with most being walkable from wherever you live in the area.  One of the main concerns residents have had over the years is the lack of a local high school.  Students that graduated from the local middle school were often then enrolled in the Centinela Valley district.  As of 2015 a bond measure was passed for the Bouconstruction of a local high school that will be located in nearby El Segundo.

From a real estate perspective the Wiseburn School District has a significant impact on housing values.  Homes in the district are generally priced considerably higher than those outside of the district boundaries…even if just a few blocks away.  See the current homes for sale in that attend the Wiseburn School District**

The Wiseburn Unified School District is a small  public school system in the El Segundo/west Hawthorne area that serves the Wiseburn communities of Del Aire, Hollyglen, and Wiseburn.

The Wiseburn Unified School District has entered into a  partnership with the Da Vinci Charter Schools  since 2009.  These independent charter schools were locally created to provide a high school option for Wiseburn students.  As mentioned above, in 2015 a bond measure was passed allowing for the construction of the Wiseburn High School campus that would house the three separate Da Vinci Charter Schools.
