Summer slowdown: Will July end with no home sales in Montrose?

snail Summer slowdown: Will July end with no home sales in Montrose?There are no July home sales to date in the Montrose area of north Glendale, and I found only two June sales in my search on Redfin. There were 23 sales altogether, most occurring in May, with an average sale price of $342 per sqare foot.

Here are the two June sales:

3531 Rosemary Avenue
$745,000 (sold 6/10/08)
$450 per sq.ft.
Last sold in 1998.

1721 Broadview
$540,000 (sold 6/2/08)
$387 per sq.ft.
Last sold for $551,538 in April 2008; this is likely a foreclosure sale.

South of the 210 freeway, there are 25 active listings in Montrose, but only two (listed below) are close to the price of a starter home. The third and final listing here has been on the market for almost six months.
