 Summary
Investment in Torrance residential real estate pick up in August as total sales increased 48.8%, the median sales price improved 1.61% or
$12.5K, and the sales-listing ratio metric jumped 59.2%. Moving in the opposite direction, however, were the median days to sell and net
listings data points, which adjusted +10% and -6.5% respectively.

In July, C.A.R. reported As we enter the second half of the year, we are likely to see some slowdown in sales that extends beyond the typical
seasonality change, said C.A.R. President Geoff McIntosh. While the rate of closed sales indicates that Californias housing market has
continued to move forward, tight supply continued to push up prices and lower affordability, which can ultimately undermine the housing
market by putting homeownership out of reach for too many households."
