What a crazy month July was in the South Bay. The year over year % changes in median home prices were drastic in
many cases with some cities seeing huge increases while others saw major drops. Unfortunately real estate in El Segundo CA was on the losing end with median home prices being almost 20% lower than they had been in July of 2016. One of the reasons was the rash of newer, and more expensive, construction a year ago somewhat artificially inflating prices. El Segundo saw a high number of homes close escrow with 20 sold homes in July at a median home price of just under $1,055,000. While that’s considerably lower than the previous July, that is still a very big number in El Segundo. Click here to see the recent home sales in El Segundo and the South Bay.
