Jane: It sure looks like Westwood CA could use a bunch of new inventory hitting the market to give buyers more options.  An excellent market analysis!

you know oddly enough our DOM was up too.  I dug a little and found a couple of homes that had lingered on the market for months on end over priced.  Got them reduced and bam they sold.

Anita,  thank you.  And yes, we need sellers.

Tammy, there's the answer.  Overpriced homes are going to linger even in a sellers' market.

Dorie,  thank you kindly.

Jane - Inventory is down, prices are up, it looks like buyers are having to work hard to get a home in the Westwood, California area.  Another excellent real estate market report for the Westwood area.  Buyers would be smart to contact you to help them get a home in this area!
