Here's some general info on Culver City before the Real Estate MLS listings and recent sales trends.

Culver City, CA is a city in western Los Angeles County, California. The community is mostly surrounded by the city of Los Angeles, but also shares a border with unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County. (OK, the Culver City sign isn't as famous as the Hollywood sign although both share an entertainment industry heritage.)

Hundreds of movies have been produced on the lots of Culver City's studios: Sony Pictures Studios (originally MGM Studios), Culver Studios, and the former Hal Roach Studios. Culver City's streets have been featured in countless films and television shows. Much of the architecture has not changed in decades, particularly in residential real estate areas of town.

In the late 1960s, much of the MGM back lot acreage (lot 3 and other property on Jefferson Boulevard), and the nearby 28 acres of the somewhat inaccurately named "back forty", once owned by RKO Pictures and later Desilu Productions, were sold by their owners. In 1976, the sets were razed to make way for Culver City real estate redevelopment. Today the "back forty" is the southern expansion of the Hayden Industrial Tract, while the MGM property has been converted to a subdivision and a shopping center known as Raintree Plaza.

In the 1990s, Culver City launched a successful revitalization program in which it renovated its downtown as well as several shopping centers in the Sepulveda corridor near Fox Hills Mall which was subsequently purchased, remodeled, and renamed by Westfield. Around the same time, the relocation of Sony's motion picture operations (known as Columbia Pictures) to the former MGM studios at Washington Boulevard and Overland Avenue brought much-needed jobs to Culver City. These improvements helped improve residential real estate property values in Culver City.

The influx of many art galleries and restaurants to the eastern part of Culver City, formally designated as the Culver City Art District, prompted The New York Times in 2007 to praise the new art scene and call Culver City a "nascent Chelsea." The  Helms Bakery, is now a center for restaurants, art galleries, and furniture sales rooms.

We have received a number of inquiries regarding "lease to own" programs. Many renters and consumers are under the impression that in a lease to own, a portion of the rental is being set aside toward the purchase price or down payment. very rarely is that the case.
