Monthly costs and fees
Up to about $841 a month in recent listings. The $375 master fee covers basic Hotwire cable and internet, the CenterPointe Club and The Resort (gyms and pools), the parks, playgrounds and courts, and 24/7 community security; the beach shuttle is funded separately. Phase I homes also pay Mello-Roos (CFD No. 4) with the property tax bill. It is based on square footage, can rise up to 2% a year, and is expected to end in 2031 when the bonds are paid off. Most Phase I condo HOAs include water. When a home sells, a 0.75% Community Enhancement Fee goes to Playa Vista Community Services, partly to help preserve the Ballona Wetlands. It is a cash closing cost that cannot be financed. Buyers sometimes take it on in a hot market, but most of the time I see it split between buyer and seller. I pull the current HOA budget before a client writes an offer.

Living at Serenade
Every home is two or three levels with 2.5 baths, a fireplace, private decks and a kitchen with an eating bar or island. The bigger plans add an office, a loft or a formal dining room with a two-sided fireplace.
Homes face interior courtyards, and parking is underground. It is a good fit for buyers who want 2,000 square feet or more and still want to walk to the park and the CenterPointe Club.
