    Southern California home prices barely rose last month, as would-be buyers weren’t able — or willing — to bid up housing costs much further. Economists and real estate agents cited a variety of factors probably contributing to the trend, including high mortgage rates, rising inventory and the economic uncertainty caused in part by on-again, off-again tariffs.

    Southern California home prices ticked up in February, the first increase in seven months. The average home price in the six-county region rose 0.3% from January to $874,382 in February, according to Zillow. Home prices had declined each month since August, which economists said was a reflection of tapped-out consumers and seasonal factors.

    Southern California home prices fell slightly in January, as high mortgage rates continued to weigh on prospective buyers. The average home price in the six-county region declined 0.4% from December to $862,115 in January, according to Zillow, marking the sixth consecutive month of declines.

    The scars left behind — charred hillsides, entire neighborhoods like checkerboards of ash and rubble — reveal only a fraction of what January wildfires took from Southern California.

Communities have been robbed of the parks and libraries and churches where they used to gather.

    The average home price in the six-county region fell 0.2% from November to $867,042 in December, according to Zillow, marking the fifth consecutive month of declines. Prices are now 1.5% off their all-time high in July, but some economists say prospective home buyers and sellers shouldn’t expect home values to plunge — one reason behind the shift is the market typically slows in the fall and winter and prices are still above where they were a year ago.
