Buying a home in the South Bay — from Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach to Redondo Beach — often comes down to one big decision: should you buy a new construction home or a resale home? Each offers unique advantages depending on your lifestyle, goals, and timing.
Benefits of New Construction
New homes deliver modern design, energy efficiency, and low maintenance. With Caskey Real Estate Group’s New Construction Division, buyers gain access to premier developments and can often customize finishes to fit their personal style. Brand-new systems, smart features, and builder warranties provide added peace of mind.
However, new homes may cost more upfront and take longer to complete, especially if you’re buying pre-construction.
Benefits of Resale Homes
Resale properties offer the charm of established neighborhoods, mature landscaping, and quicker move-in timelines. Many homes in Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, and Redondo Beach come with prime locations near the beach, top schools, and local dining.
The trade-off? Older systems may require updates, and some layouts might feel less open or modern.
Which Option Fits You Best?
If you’re drawn to customization, modern features, and new finishes, new construction could be ideal. If you prefer community feel, location, and immediate availability, a resale home might be the better match.
At Caskey Real Estate Group, our team understands both sides of the market. Whether you’re searching for a newly built home through our New Construction Division or a timeless resale property, we’ll help you find a home that fits your lifestyle and future plans.
