As a realtor who has been doing this a while, I’ve come to expect a nice increase in houses for sale in mid to late January. As the holidays wrap up, football season ends, and everyone gets back to work, we generally see a nice increase in homes that hit the market. It can often set the tone for much of the year as and abundance of homes early in the year often seems to stabilize the market one way or another. Unfortunately 2015 hasn’t seen that increase as the number of active homes for sale continues to go down at a time when the homes for sale should be going up. It’s still early enough that sellers may yet be holding off for a week or two to put their homes on the market and it would be welcome relief for the home buyers sitting and waiting.
The chart below shows the number of homes for sale represented by the light green bar. As of January 29th there are only 161 homes for sale in all of Torrance.

One of the most affordable ways of owning a larger home in one of Torrance’s best neighborhoods may be the townhomes in the Plaza Del Amo area of Central Torrance. There are a number of complexes each with a somewhat different feel and set of amenities, but all are centrally located and offer great square footage at reasonable prices. The gated communities include Springwood, Windsong, Windmere, Summerwind and more. Recently there have been a number of new listings in the various Plaza Del Amo complexes.
