The week in Pasadena
What moved, what dropped and what changed hands in Pasadena, read the way an inspector reads a house.
The Pasadena file →The largest reduction on the desk was 790 N El Molino Avenue — down $350,000, from $2,300,000 to $1,950,000, listed by Compass.
25 listings changed status: 9 sold, 9 active under contract, 4 coming soon, 2 pending. The brokerage on every row below is the listing brokerage on the record, not ours.
25 homes came to market, asking from $480,000 to $3,495,000.
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.
