Asking price is $899,000, with HOA dues of $440 per month.

This Burbank residence has plenty of suburban-style charm, with a grassy front yard and a kidney-shaped pool in the back. The 2,085-square-foot home includes three bedrooms and three bathrooms, with a large kitchen, formal dining room, and a study with built-in shelving and direct access to the backyard. Sitting on a 5,704-square-foot lot with a two-car garage, the home is asking $899,000.

Via Max Pellegrini, Dilbeck Real Estate

You could be the first-ever owner of this Pasadena condo in a newly constructed complex on the edge of the city’s Playhouse District. The two-bedroom unit has two bathrooms and 1,288 square feet of living space, with an open kitchen and dining area and an office space with French doors leading out to a central courtyard. A separate patio space is accessed from the master bedroom. Asking price is $899,999, with HOA dues of $300 per month.

Via Michele Hall, Coldwell Banker

Located in Westwood’s swanky Wilshire Terrace building, this one-bedroom co-op (yes, it’s a co-op) has a roomy 1,134 square feet of living space and offers terrific views from its private balcony. Features of the unit include walls of glass, an updated kitchen, and an impressive marble bathroom with heated floors. Shared amenities include a pool, gym, dog park, and rose garden. Asking price is $895,000, but we should probably mention the astronomical HOA dues—they’re $1,304 per month.

The residence sits on a 7,001-square-foot lot with an enclosed backyard and a large, pergola-shaded wooden deck. Asking price is $899,000.
