The week in Whittier
What moved, what dropped and what changed hands in Whittier, read the way an inspector reads a house.
The Whittier file →The largest reduction on the desk was 11128 Whittier Boulevard — down $50,000, from $799,000 to $749,000, listed by Equity Union.
25 listings changed status: 12 sold, 7 active under contract, 4 pending, 2 coming soon. The brokerage on every row below is the listing brokerage on the record, not ours.
25 homes came to market, asking from $184,900 to $2,879,000.
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.
