Holy condos.

In the Pico-Robertson neighborhood, a developer is betting on kosher condos.

George Saadin, managing partner of Landmark West Enterprises LLC, is nearing completion on a $9 million condo building at 8555 Cashio St. where the 16 units come with kitchens designed to facilitate keeping kosher and timers that control lights during the Jewish Sabbath.

Each unit has two dishwashers, separate counters and two sinks to allow separation of meat and dairy during food preparation, cooking and cleaning.

"Everything is what (an observant Jew) is looking for," Saadin said. "The condos have all the kosher amenities they would have in a kibbutz in Israel."

Those additions, including refrigerators with lights that remain off during the Sabbath, place two- and three-bedroom condos at between $600,000 and $850,000, Saadin said. The median price of a condo in the same ZIP code was $497,000 in July, according to DataQuick.

"To do something like this, you would have to have a house," he said. "You have to run new piping, electricity and things of that nature. As far as condos go, it's almost impossible to install these things after construction is complete."

Saadin is planning three more kosher condo buildings that would add another 48 to 50 units to Pico-Robertson.
