The week in Alhambra
What moved, what dropped and what changed hands in Alhambra, read the way an inspector reads a house.

17 listings changed status: 7 active under contract, 4 sold, 4 pending, 1 coming soon. The brokerage on every row below is the listing brokerage on the record, not ours.

That is the week, address by address. What any one of these rows means for a house on the same street is the question the file answers next.
