Torrance home sales for March of 2016

By Keith Kyle

March was yet another very busy month for home sales in Torrance and the South Bay with home prices continuing to go up and the number of home sales rising as well.  The demand has been pretty overwhelming in certain areas such as West Torrance, South Torrance and the Hollywood Rivera and multiple offer situations selling over the list price being the norm.

Torrance saw 109 home sales in March of 2016 with the average list price of $648, 831 and the average sales price at $648,460 which again shows that very few homes are selling below list price….even in a market in which inflated prices are becoming more common.  The lowest priced home of the month was a 1 bedroom condo in the County Strip area (not actually part of Torrance but a Torrance P.O. making for much lower prices)at $172,900 and the most expensive was $1,160,000 for a 5 bed/4 bath, 3000 square foot single family home in the Hollywood Riviera.

Homes for sale in the Hollywood Riviera

The Highest and Lowest Priced Homes in Torrance CA

Homes for sale in the Hollywood Riviera

**Please note that this is an older post from 2016 and home prices and values no longer reflect current market conditions

Torrance is a diverse community and home prices can certainly reflect that.  From multi million dollar homes along the bluff in the Hollywood Riviera, to the neighborhoods near the 110 Freeway, neighborhoods and home prices vary considerably.

Topping out the market at the moment is the home at 326 Calle De Arboles in the Hollywood Riviera.  The home is priced at $2,098,000 with 3,251 square feet and has been on the market almost 2 months as of this posting.  While the homes in the Hollywood Riviera are often Redondo Beach mailing addresses and zip codes, the homes are actually located in Torrance with award winning Torrance schools and services.

On the other side of the spectrum is the one bedroom condo located at 941 W Carson.  It’s listed at $205,000 and is a short sale property.  This section of Torrance is known as county strip.  Very much the opposite of the Hollywood Riviera this section of Torrance is actually not part of Torrance proper and is serviced by LA Unified Schools and LA City services.  As the schools are not at the same level (in most cases) as the Torrance Unified schools, values are always lower in this area.

Torrance Home Sales in January 2015

Torrance saw a relatively low number of homes sold in January with 63 homes, condos and townhomes closing Torrance Home Searchescrow during the month (see Torrance real estate trends and market updates).  According to Torrance realtor Keith Kyle, “It’s not unusual to see a significant slowdown of closed home sales during January, as December is a very limited month for new listings and homes entering escrow.  With the holidays very little activity happens in the last 3rd of the month meaning far fewer closings in January.  Click here to view the home sales in Torrance, and other South Bay cities per month.
