Keeping Current With Torrance Real Estate – March Home Sales

by Leave a Comment

While we focus primarily on real estate and homes for sale in Old Torrance, many buyers are also looking in other parts of Torrance and the South Bay.  The entire city of Torrance saw 84 on market homes sell and close escrow during March.  The number of pending sales has jumped considerably each month of 2020 thus far so one would have expected that to continue.

View the current homes for sale in Torrance

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.  The median asking price was $787,000 with the median “sold” price at $815,000 which means that home 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.  4 of the sales were in the 55+ community of New Horizons which was certainly more than any other specific neighborhood.  See also the homes that sold in Old Torrance CA 90501 as well as Plaza Del Amo home sales for March.

Why Buy A Home In Old Torrance Instead of Rent?

by Leave a Comment

One of the many questions potential buyers ask is why they should buy when generally renting is less expensive.  There are a number ofCraftsman homes in Torrance reasons although it still may not be the best fit for you.  Everyone is different but in terms of long term planning it’s almost always better to own than rent.

Here are just a few of the reasons:

Smart Investment
When you invest in a home, it offers the possibility for appreciation in value. The equity becomes yours when you’re still paying off your mortgage. You even get to live in it while your investment matures.

Tax Advantages
Since both mortgage interest and property taxes are tax deductible, homeownership can save you significant amounts of money every year.

Planned Housing Costs
You decide how much you spend on your home, including repairs and improvements. Unlike renters, homeowners with a fixed-rate loan can lock in their monthly housing costs.

Improvements to Your Taste
You can choose which improvements to make your own property, such as a deck, kitchen remodel, or new paint, instead of needing permission from your landlord.

If you have more questions about making the decision to buy a home, please feel free to call or email.
