No matter what the market, people will continue to desire to live in Claremont, as it remains one of the most prestigious cities within San Bernardino County. Comparatively speaking, the Claremont housing market is starting to show signs of a slowing market.
In of August 2008, 6 single family homes and 1 condos/townhomes sold, down 2 from last month. My overall view of the market is still slipping, Click Here to view an article that explains the housing market in the Inland Empire.

With the lower NOD and NOS numbers this month don't go and get yourself all excited that foreclosures are subsiding. I believe that the drop in numbers is associated with the effects of SB 1137 which took effect this last month, for the full article on SB 1137 click here.
