The Huntington Landmark community is arguably on the best and most affordable 55+ adult communities in all of Orange County, California.  This neighborhood has a very active turnover with multiple rental listings throughout the year.  For example, the year of 2022 we had approximately 20 rental listings come on the market and then leased out as pictured below.  In 2021, this number was even higher with an approximate 24 rental listings that were leased.  When looking at this charge the "L" in the status section means "leased" with the leased price in the middle and the leased date at the far right.  For the most part, these will typically be 12 month leases with the tenant paying the first months rent, security deposit and security check before moving in.

One of the more popular communities in Huntington Beach when looking for a rental property is the Seabridge community.  What makes this a little bit of a challenge is that there are two neighborhoods in Huntington Beach called Seabridge so it's important to know the differences before making a decision on where to rent a home.  The first one is located near the Downtown area of Huntington Beach is a gated community with a variety of condos located here.  Some of these include Seabridge Lakes, Seabridge Villas and Seabridge Townhomes.  I would say this is probably the more popular Seabridge community due to the variety of units that are located here with some offering lake views.  Plus the location being a short driving distance to the downtown area and

There are some neighborhoods in Huntington Beach where rentals rarely come on the market and when they do they tend to rent out very quickly.  This sure seems to be the case about the popular La Cuesta By The Sea community in Huntington Beach.  On average, we tend to see only 1 rental listing every year come on the market here with homes renting out on average of 30 days or less.  One of the reasons for it's popularity is the type of you can find here that often comes with at least two to three bedrooms with generous size three bedroom floor plans that can span over 1,500 square feet of living space.  What I love about these homes is that they often come with rooms that offer vaulted ceilings that give an illusion of extra space as well as an attached two

One of my favorite places to look for large rental properties is the Seacliff Club Series neighborhood.  First of all is located within a 24 hour guard gated community which is very impressive.  Security here is very strict so don't expect to go through this community unless you live here or a guest of one of the owners.  The properties located here are considered townhomes with multiple levels of living space.  You either love or hate having different levels as it does require a lot of steps going up and down between the different levels.  For the most part you have an attached two car garage located on the street level with a series of steps going up to the first level where you have the kitchen, living and dining room.  Up one more flight of steps and

When I first move to the Orange County and was looking at homes the word that a lot of real estate agents would use was that the home was "turnkey."  At first I had no idea what they were talking about since it seems to be real estate lingo but quickly understood what they were talking about.  Basically, the phrase means to turn the key and enter the home without having to do any repairs, etc.  This phrase is used so much that it's the one keyword to look for if you are in the market to find a home that doesn't need any work done to it.  Huntington Beach has several homes currently on the market that are in this condition with a wide range of prices from smaller residential condos to single family homes.

Buyers in this current real estate market are

One of the common requests we get from our clients is finding a home that comes with inside laundry.  Of course, for larger homes this a pretty much a common thing to have as many luxury homes even come with their own individual laundry room.  For smaller homes and condos this is a common question as laundry areas can be located in the garage and for residential condos you may find the laundry in the community laundry facility.  In fact, one of the first questions we get from condo buyers is regarding the laundry and having inside laundry is a huge selling feature.  You will sometimes see in condo listings that a unit comes with laundry hookups which often equates to having inside laundry as well.

For those looking for a beach front rental in the Huntington Beach area it's important to understand the geography of Huntington Beach.  Pacific Coast Highway is the main street that runs north to south along side the ocean with very few homes located on the ocean side of the street.  The beach actually goes right up the highway which offers very few properties that are actually located on the sand.  There are a few exceptions to this rule.  First on the very north end of town you will find a section of beach front homes in the suburb called "Sunset Beach."  This is one of the oldest areas of Huntington Beach that offers single family homes directly on the sand.  These homes rarely come on the market for sale and for lease and typically sell or lease very
