Torrance Real Estate Market Update

by Leave a Comment

Welcome to the 1st quarter real estate recap for the city of Torrance.  Like all cities and towns, the coronavirus uncertainty has impacted real estate in Torrance CA as well.  Having said that due to a varied economy and employment and years of a strong housing market, Torrance is more insulated than most other areas but there’s no doubt it’s playing a large role in the current market.

April saw the fewest number of pending home sales in the past few years with only 45 homes going into escrow.  (see chart below)  Compare that with 110 pending sales a year earlier and it’s pretty clear we’re entering a much slower market.   Central Torrance and Plaza Del Amo was no exception with only 3 pending home sales in April compared with 13 pending sales in March and 10 in April 2019.

View the current homes for sale in Torrance The chart below shows the number of active listings (light green) sold homes (dark green) and pending home sales (red line)  The greater the discrepancy between active homes and sold homes indicates a buyers market and when the numbers are closer a sellers market is indicated as inventory is down.

The chart below shows the average price per square foot. Square footage in the South Bay often doesn’t mean as much as in other markets as values can vary so dramatically due to things such as proximity to the beach, views, specific neighborhoods.

The chart below shows the average days on market per month as well as the % of list price that homes sold at.  A high % indicates a sellers market as home sell at, or above list price.

The chart below shows the average price for listed home sales in relation to the average price for sold homes.

The chart below indicates the months of home inventory based on closed home sales.  Buyer’s market: more than 6 months of inventory  Seller’s market: less than 3 months of inventory  Neutral market: 3 – 6 months of  inventory

Real Estate Recap – March 2020 Home Sales and Prices for Torrance

by Leave a Comment

**March numbers were not yet impacted by Covid 19 so that will likely change things quite a bit as many “pending” escrows have fallen out and are now back on the market. **

While we focus primarily on real estate in the Plaza Del Amo and Central Torrance neighborhoods, you may be interested to see what homes are selling for in the rest of Torrance CA.

There were 84 on market closed sales during March which is down slightly from the same month a year earlier but a nice increase from the beginning of 2020.    The number of pending sales has jumped considerable each month of 2020 thus far so one would have expected that to continue.

Median “list” price was $787,000 with the median “sold” price at $815,000 which shows that homes were selling WAY over the list price indicating a market VERY favorable to sellers.  The average price per foot was $515.80 and median days on the market was only 9 before going into escrow.

So Where is “Central” Torrance Anyway?

by Leave a Comment

From a realtor perspective and how we help our clients search is broken into smaller neighborhoods.  Torrance is far to big and diverse to just send all “Torrance” homes for sale.  The homes in the gated communities of Plaza Del Amo are located in the area that we specifiy as central Torrance.  As it’s not all that creative and as the name indicates….central Torrance is towards the middle of the South Bay’s largest city.  See on the map below that in our South Bay MLS, central Torrance is area 126 so that we can specify that neighborhood in our home searches for our clients.  If you’re interested in receiving listing updates for any Torrance neighborhood just tell us a bit about your search and we’ll do the rest.
