The week in Orange
What moved, what dropped and what changed hands in Orange, read the way an inspector reads a house.
The Orange file →The largest reduction on the desk was 10903 Meads — down $120,000, from $3,995,000 to $3,875,000, listed by Inhabit Collective.
25 listings changed status: 9 active under contract, 6 sold, 6 pending, 4 back on market. The brokerage on every row below is the listing brokerage on the record, not ours.
20 homes came to market, asking from $449,000 to $2,750,000.
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.
