Buying a condo or a townhouse is often a first important step to home ownership.   Condo prices in Torrance real estate and South Bay area declined more than single family homes.  This creates an opportunity for first time Torrance home buyers to buy a piece of real estate and perhaps, later in a few years, move up and purchase a single family home. Buying a condo or a townhome in Torrance is also popular with homeowners who want to downsize to a smaller property with less maintanance. Currently there are 76 condos and townhomes listed for sale in Torrance.  Prices range from $149,900 to $849,000.  Some of those condos are for 55+ seniors only.  If you're interested in living in a gated Torrance community - there is a very nice selection of beautiful, upscale condo or townhome gated com...

Everyone knows some neighborhoods are more popular than others.  They have the wow factor working for them in obvious ways such as superior schools and locations.  On the other hand, sometimes a neighborhood's popularity is judged in less tangible ways.  The hip and cool factor is more difficult to measure, but buyers pick up on it right away.    Maybe it is the Prius lined driveways, high tech baby strollers or the evolution of the 1950s ranch home into the green abodes of the 21st century that makes young home buyers say, "This is the where we want to live."  Whatever it is it is working well.   Perhaps it is simply "Popular Personality Syndrome" the it factor that makes others want to join the in crowd.  Maybe it is the sense of belonging or a good match.  Whether we can define it or...
