As a short sale specialist I have tracked the short sale market for years and as Torrance is the largest city in the South Bay, it has been a very good indicator of how much of a factor short sales and bank owned homes have been on the local market. Short sales first became a factor in mid 2007 with a high point in 2010. In August of 2010 there were 159 active short sale homes for sale in Torrance. Those numbers started to decline in April of 2011 and have continued downward to the current level which has seen an average of 4 homes for sale for the past few months. What was a source of the “deals” sought by buyers is no longer putting downward pressure on the market and has basically ceased to be a factor.

This better than new coastal craftsman is as beautiful on the inside as the outside
and dramatically different than the standard Redondo townhome. From the moment you see 2209 Nelson in Redondo Beach you’ll realize that this is unlike anything on the market. Entering the home, you’ll be struck by the bright and open floorplan and attention to details. From the nine foot high ceilings, 6″ oak flooring to the El Dorado stone fireplace to the wainscoting and custom colors this home is designer perfect. The lower level features a bright and open floorplan for today’s lifestyle and perfectly blends beach casual with modern luxury. Ideal for entertaining the home features an open kitchen with granite counters, stainless appliances, Merillat maple cabinetry, center island and breakfast bar. The kitchen opens to both the dining area and the spacious living room. Direct access to the private backyard and patio is ideal for indoor outdoor living.
Head upstairs to 3 beautiful bedrooms plus the incredible master suite. All bedrooms offer plantation shutters, vaulted ceilings, recessed lights, and all enjoy an abundance of natural light. The master suite is a stunning retreat bathed in natural light, with vaulted ceilings, beautiful stone fireplace, private sitting area, balcony, and walk in closet.

The numbers are in and June 2016 was a big month in terms of both the number of homes sold and the prices. Home prices were up year over year in every South Bay city other than Manhattan Beach and Torrance CA posted some very big numbers. 141 homes and properties sold in June at a very respectable median price of $640,000 which is higher than normal.
