Market snapshot

Important caveat. Citywide medians are heavily weighted by Leisure World Seal Beach, a 55+ age-restricted co-op community with sub-$500K transaction volume. Citywide numbers are NOT a comp for fee-simple single-family homes in Old Town or The Hill. For a neighborhood-level analysis, contact Tim directly.
