Published on
A good move starts with the right question is the property priced for the market you are actually in? In El Monte, CA, last month the typical asking price was $768,000 and the typical sale was $690,000, so I would stay alert to that spread.

Last month, the typical asking price in El Monte, CA was $768,000 and the typical sale was $690,000. That gap matters because it shows me where pricing pressure can build. I also watch the 3.09 months of inventory and the 30-day sale timeline. Those two figures help me judge whether a property needs sharper positioning or simply better timing. Start with the spread. Check your target price early. Do not assume the first number is the right one.
