Altadena homes are selling.  Home prices have increased compared to just six months ago, and we are still struggling with low inventory.  However, we definitely saw a huge increase in new listings the last few weeks.  I am seeing more people previewing homes and attending open houses in Altadena too.  The home prices are definitely competitive  in Altadena versus Pasadena.  Let us see the stats for March 2013.
