People move from Pico Rivera, East Los Angeles, Santa Fe Springs, Norwalk and Montebello to Whittier. As a general rule, very few people move from Whittier to these cities to the west.
If you are thinking about selling your home in Whittier, you naturally would want to work with a Realtor® whose brokerage advertises to people who live in the areas east of Whittier. You would also want to work with a brokerage that has offices in those areas, because the agents who work out of the offices in Norwalk, South Gate, Pico Rivera and Bellflower have active buyers who are looking to move to Whittier. Prudential California Realty has lots of active buyers who want to buy a home in Whittier.
Another advantage is that Prudential California Realty advertises extensively in the newspapers where those buyers who want to move to Whittier live today. We advertise in the following newspapers, where the future Whittier buyers are:
Other companies may advertise in the Orange County Register, which is great for people who want to buy in Orange County. But, if you are looking for people who want to buy your Whittier home, then you will want to advertise to the people who want to move to Whittier.
How many people want to move from Orange County to Whittier? Not many.
How many people want to move from East Los Angeles, Long Beach, Bellflower, Montebello and other communities in the west to Whittier? Lots of people!

The best time to buy a home is when sellers fear tomorrow is going to be worse.
The worst time to buy a home is when sellers think tomorrow is going to be better. 
What do you think sellers are thinking today?
Do you think they have heard in the news that prices have gone up during the past three months?
Does that news make sellers more fearful, or more fearless?
Have sellers come to realize that we are in a Sellers’ Market? If so, how does that knowledge affect what they think about tomorrow?
In Whittier, there are currently 309 active listings on the market. In the past 30 days, 122 properties have been sold. That means that the current homes on the market will take only 2.5 months to sell.
A normal market has 5 to 7 months of inventory.
A Sellers' Market has less than 5 months of inventory.
With only 2.5 months of inventory, Whittier is in a very strong Sellers' Market. What do you think these numbers mean to someone who wants to sell their home?
