From all indications, February was a good month for the Pasadena real estate market. Sales of single family homes were up 47% over this time last year. Homes going into escrow also increased by 26%. But is the news all rosey? Depends on your perspective. If you are selling your home all indications point to a sellers market. You may remember that term. It was used quite often between 2002-2006.

Price per Square Foot - Single Family Homes in Pasadena Zip 91104

Most media reports are stating that home sales declined in the month of August. What the media is not reporting is that it is not uncommon for home sales to dip in August.
