A comparatively lower MSI is more beneficial for sellers while a higher MSI is better for buyers. The July 2012 MSI of 1.9 months was at its lowest level compared with July of 2011 and 2010.

Market Time
The average Days On Market(DOM) shows how many days the average Property is on the Market before it sells.

Just because San Marino is a quiet (but beautiful) suburban community doesn’t mean that we don’t have style. As reported in the San Marino Patch, San Marino was recently named the 25th most fashionable town in America. As one might expect, there are a number of California towns making the list including #1, Newport Coast. While San Marino did not beat out Beverly Hills, it’s notable that we ranked higher than Malibu, West Hollywood and Santa Monica. Criteria for the study was the percentage of households that had made at least four transactions at top-end designer merchants in the last thirty months. At 7.57% of households meeting the mark by their definition of fashion conscious, San Marino comes in at five times the national average.

A lot of attention is paid to the connection between the unemployment rate and the housing market. The belief is that higher unemployment rates lead to more distressed sales which tend to drive down prices. This statistic is usually tracked on a national and regional basis. Since the health of real estate markets can vary so much from one town to another, it makes sense to evaluate unemployment on a more local basis as well.
For the Pasadena area, there is good news and bad news. The bad news is that while California state’s unemployment rate went down in January, the rate in the Pasadena area increased. The positive is that even with this increase, the rate in the area is still well below the state average. The Burbank Leader reports that California state’s rate was 10.9% in January, down from 11.2% in December. Local rates were as follows: Pasadena 9.2% up from 8.9%, South Pasadena 6% up from 5.8% and San Marino 5.5% up from 5.3% in December.
We will periodically track these local numbers and their influence, if any, on the local real estate prices.

Prices
The Median Sales Price in February was $2,575,000, up 53.7% from $1,675,000 in February of 2011 and up 114.9% from $1,198,000 last month.

A comparatively lower MSI is more beneficial for sellers while a higher MSI is better for buyers. The February 2012 MSI of 10.0 months was at a mid range compared with February of 2011 and 2010.

Market Time
The average Days On Market(DOM) shows how many days the average Property is on the Market before it sells. An upward trend in DOM tends to indicate a move towards more of a Buyer’s market, a downward trend a move towards more of a Seller’s market. The DOM for February was 130, up 160.0% from 50 days last month and up 202.3% from 43 days in February of last year. The February 2012 DOM was at a mid range compared with February of 2011 and 2010.

Selling Price per Square Foot
The Selling Price per Square Foot is a great indicator for the direction of Property values. Since Median Sales Price and Average Sales price can be impacted by the ‘mix’ of high or low end Properties in the market, the selling price per square foot is a more normalized indicator on the direction of Property values. The February 2012 Selling Price per Square Foot of $723 was up 36.7% from $529 last month and up 14.0% from $634 in February of last year.

Selling Price vs Original Listing Price

San Marino is the quiet but beautiful suburb of Los Angeles where I live and work. It is known for many things such as the Huntington Library, Lacy Park and for being the setting of Steve Martin’s Father of the Bride. For families, it is famous for having one of the top school districts in the state of California, if not the country. Sometimes referred to as the Beverly Hills of Pasadena, San Marino has many gorgeous properties for the discriminating homebuyer. Currently though, the supply is a little tight at the high end. However, there are seven listings available now in our small community >$2.5mm.
