        <title>Southwest San Clemente New Construction Homes</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
The Southwest San Clemente area is often considered one of the best neighborhoods in San Clemente near the beach due its unique collection of various types of single family homes. nbsp;In the last several years we have seen a lot of construction in this area due to the rising real estate prices and the need for more housing inventory. nbsp;In the last week 2 new brand new construction listings have come on the market in. Southwest San Clemente for a total of 3 homes on the market that were built in 2022. nbsp;We have actually been waiting for these homes to come on the market since they have both been under construction for some time now. nbsp;The unique part about these 2 new listings is that they are located right next to each other on the street called Avenida Princesa.


211 Avenida Princesa is a 4 bedroom home that is reported by the builder of being over 3,500 square feet with a bonus roof top deck. What I love about this property is the unique architectural modern Farmhouse design that features wide open spaces making it an easy flow in between the rooms. For example, the living room and kitchen spaces open to each other as well as a covered outdoor patio space that brings the outdoors inside. nbsp;The primary bedroom is very generous and size and comes with a spa like primary bathroom with separate jacuzzi soaking tub and walk-in shower. nbsp;Its also what I would call a smart home that comes with a lot of new technology incorporated into the house to make beach living that much easier. nbsp;Its currently on the market for $4,799.000.


213 Avenida Princes is a 4 bedroom home that is reported by the builder of being over 3,900 and equipped with a two car garage. nbsp;This home has a little bit different feel than 211 Avenida Princesa but still lncorporates a functional open floor plan as well as a very nice covered outdoor patio space. nbsp;The gourmet kitchen is really amazing on this house with tons of cabinetry, water fall edge center island with seating and custom fitted appliances. nbsp;All of the rooms in this house tend to be of generous size with a bonus roof top deck as well. Its currently on the market for $4,999,000 probably due to the larger square footage. nbsp;Both of these are a perfect example of what is being built in the Southwest area here in San Clemente. nbsp;For a tour of any of these homes please reach out to us direct at 949-204-5110.

        <title>San Clemente New Construction Opportunities For 2022</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
San Clemente has seen a very limited inventory of homes for the year 2021 with a small number of new homes being built for re-sale. There are still some great opportunities out there if you know where to look. nbsp;One of these opportunities is a new construction listing located at 1205 Via La Mesa which is scheduled to become between a 4,200 to 4,500 square foot home with a total of 5 bedrooms and 5 baths. nbsp;If you are family with the street Via La Mesa then you know its located on the east side of the 5 freeway and is being advertised as offering ocean and coastline views. nbsp;Its reported that a prominent builder will be in charge of building this modern architectural style home with quality craftsmanship. nbsp;The nice thing about this project is that the buyer may have the ability to choose certain features and designs if its early enough into the building process. nbsp;Its currently listed at $2,999,000 and schedule to officially come on the market on March 01, 2022.





We expect to see more listings coming on the market after the first of the year when the San Clemente Real Estate market typically picks up a lot of speed. nbsp;We are finding that a lot of home buyers are looking for turnkey properties that require little upgrading which makes new construction homes very appealing. nbsp;San Clemente has a total of 9 different neighborhoods that offer their own unique price points and style of homes so we recommend talking with a local agent who understands the nuances of each of these areas. nbsp;For example, buyers looking for newer style homes will often choose the Talega area since many of the homes have been built within the last 20 years. nbsp;We have gathered the recent new construction home sales below to show what has sold in the last 365 days. nbsp;For more information on buying a home in San Clemente please contact our local agents at 949-204-5110 today.

        <title>Socorro Shores San Clemente Community</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
The long anticipated development of this community has finally come to life with 3 homes being released on to the market in the Socorro Shores neighborhood. nbsp;I received a call on this development many years ago as they were trying to figure out how much homes would sell for in this area. nbsp;At the time the Sea Summit community located next door had not even started development so it was tough to gauge exactly what homes would sell for. nbsp;Since the Sea Summit neighborhood is heading towards its final stages of selling out it makes sense that there are enough comps to support a brand new construction home with over 4,000 square feet on the north side of San Clemente.


Socorro Shores is a combination of 9 luxury homes located on Via Socorro street in San Clemente, hence the name Socorro Shores. nbsp;The location is nestled between the brand new Sea Summit and Shorecliffs community and is ideally terraced down the street. nbsp;The concept of this community is to offer large new semi-custom homes that keeps within the Spanish style architecture that was brought to life in the 1920s by the founder Ole Hanson. nbsp;As of the early part of August 2019 we have seen 3 properties come on the market priced between $2,400,000 to $2,572,410. nbsp;One of the 3 properties located at 214 Via Socorro is currently under contract and listed at $2,400,000. nbsp;212 amp; 216 Via Socorro are still on the market and both listed at $2,572,410. nbsp;Both of these properties are being advertised as offering over 4,500 square feet of living space. nbsp;


One of the biggest features is the bonus guest casita found in these homes. nbsp;This is a big selling point for buyers with extended family members or frequent out of town guests. nbsp;The homes also appear to offer top of the line finishes and appliances as new home buyers have come to expect. More homes are expected to be released with a great opportunity to buy since most of the Sea Summit homes have already been sold. nbsp;One benefit of buying in Socorro Shores is having a low homeowners association fee with no Mello Roos. nbsp;For more information on this community and what is currently for sale please contact any of our San Clemente Real Estate agents at 949-204-5110 today.

        <title>Sea Summit Mello Roos Fee</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Its hard to find any new community in Southern California being built that doesnt have the added Mello Roos bond attached to it. nbsp;For those new to the California real estate market the word Mello Roos will be an unfamiliar term, as it was when I first moved here to California. nbsp;In essence, a Mello Roos bond is typically a monthly fee that is paid on top of any homeowners association fee and any individual mortgage. nbsp;For the most part this is only associated with new communities as you rarely see Mello Roos tax on older homes. nbsp;In San Clemente, the most popular area to find Mello Roos is the Talega area which features over 40 communities that all have the added Mello Roos bond fee. nbsp;Mello Roos bonds are normally around 30 years and the fee goes towards paying for the community sidewalks, streets and other neighborhood features that the builder wants to pass on to the home buyer. nbsp;Its such a common thing that home buyers expect the fee but have problems in calculating the exact cost.


We have a buyer whos interested in buying the Azure Sea Summit community but was unclear about the exact cost. nbsp;Mello Roos fees can fluctuate a lot of times making it confusing to figure out even for real estate agents as we typically quote an approximate cost. nbsp;Upon talking with the sales office, which was very nice and friendly, they quoted us a percentage that included taxes and Mello Roos to be approximately 1.8 which is right in accordance with the literature that they gave to us. nbsp;In California, the state charges 1 of the purchase no matter where you buy in California. nbsp;So buying a $1 million dollar home will have a yearly tax of $10,000 which is approximately $833.00 a month. nbsp;Keep in mind that you have city taxes on top of that. nbsp;Most areas of San Clemente will be approximately 0.10 so your total fee would be an approximate 1.1 of the purchase price. nbsp;This number will vary depending on where you buy, especially if there is Mello Roos, so we always recommend asking the listing broker for the approximate cost.


Homeowners association dues in the Azure Sea Summit community are currently $250.00 a month and at build out they will be lowered to $215.00 a month. nbsp;So make sure you calculate these various costs when deciding to purchase a home in any community in California. nbsp;Sea Summit is building only a limited number of homes and communities like Azure will be only feature a total of 81 homes. nbsp;The new Sea Summit club featuring an ocean view community pool area has just recently opened so this is a great to take a visit down to these new homes.


We would be happy to help you calculate all the costs that are involved in buying a home. nbsp;Our agents use top rated escrow companies that can give you a buyer net sheet to analyze all of your closing costs including mortgage fees, taxes, homeowners association dues, escrow fees, title fees and Mello Roos. nbsp;If you would like this type of breakdown please give us a call at 949-204-5110. nbsp;The Sea Summit community does require us to be with you when you first visit them so If you would like the professional services of an agent please contact us and we will be happy to meet you at any of the homes there.
