I had a conversation with my friend (who may considering selling/short sale); he asked, "Are homes moving at all?" And I said, "YES."
Here is what I saw on the Itech MLS search:
Altadena in month of September 2008
Pasadena in the month of September 2008
So I say yes. The market is very ACTIVE.
*listings are single family home, condo, townhome, own yr own, pud.
Here are homes that were listed in Altadena from September 16 to September 30, 2008.
Lowest Price Listing: $229,900

You're driving home and see several Open House signs. It's 6PM, and you are wondering an Open House on Thursday evening? Yes! More twilight open houses are getting popular.
Offering a way to see homes for the buyers during the weeknights can bring exposure to the listing. It's another technique to add visibility. The twilight gives the buyers a chance to see the homes during the weekday and save their weekend hours for other events.
The twilight may not bring a big crowd like Sunday Open House, however, there are definitely buyers that feel this time frame works for them (young professionals for example).
What's the advantage?
How About A Twilight For Your Home?
Wow! We know it is a very interesting and exciting time in the real estate market.
As of August 1 to August 27, there were 19 homes which closed escrow in Altadena. 5 homes sold over the list price, 1 sold at 100% asking, and rest sold at 94% or above. So who says homes are not selling? There are really great deals out there.
