uh - fewer people are willing to sell their homes in 90402 for under 3 million ?

fewer houses available for under 3 million in the 90402

how are we to interpret this

Has anyone else seen 751 24th? It's a total dump that needs a major remodel or teardown and rebuild.

I don't care if it is 90402. It should sell for less than 90402 or 90403 because of the location. The traffic noise is 24/7, and the elementary school is directly across the street.

Good luck!

Can anyone explain how i can find out how much a specific home sold for this month

i am interested in the huge house in 90402 north of lincoln - the one that was listed for 5 mil plus than lowered to 4 something and then sold

i want to know if it sold for more like 4.0 or 4.4 thanks

The sale has not gone through yet. It is still listed as "looking for backup".

I will have an update on my blog if/when it sells.

You can only find out when/if something clears escrow if you have full access to the MLS or if you know someone who has full access. It generally takes zillow and property shark a few weeks at a minimum to update their files once something sells.

751 24th is already looking for backup...
