Prime Time for Home Sellers at East Costa Mesa
 
East Costa Mesa is about a 3-square-mile area at Orange County and borders Newport Beach on one side, Irvine Avenue on the east, Mesa Drive on the north and Newport Blvd on the west.   It's located about 2 miles from Newport Harbor and 3 miles from the Pacific Ocean.
 
Eastside homeowners like their large yard spaces, and many want to expand their houses while some already have.
 
ECM is famous for its neighborhood charm, single-level ranch style homes, ocean breezes, friendly people, bicycling on the streets, sports fields and recreation areas, and walking to restaurants and shopping.
 

East Costa Mesa has bucked against the recent trend at Orange County where number of homes sold has been down.
  • East Costa Mesa home sale numbers were up in April 2014 as compared with last month March and also same time last year.
  • 25 East Costa Mesa homes sold this year during April 2014 - with average selling price of $898,840 (according to CRMLS multiple listing service).
  • Home selling prices and values at East Costa Mesa have been way up on average during past 13 years.
  • 22 ECM homes sold 13 years ago during April 2001 - with average selling price of $376,386.
  • So East Costa Mesa home sellers have enjoyed average selling price increases totalling $522,454 - during the time from April 2001 to April 2014.
  • ECM average home selling prices have gone up 138 percent during the past 13 years.
