The Silicon Valley housing market continues its long rebound, with May seeing year-over-year increases in sales and median prices for both homes and condos in Santa Clara County. But you’ll need to act fast to have a chance at one of these properties because they’re spending less and less time on the block!
Has the home sales market in San Francisco finally begun to cool off, or is it just the chill of another atmospheric river? Inventory and median sales price were down year over year in December, and properties took a little more time getting scooped up. Meanwhile, condo prices in the City by the Bay saw a 9% increase from the same time in 2022, and opportunities were 10% more plentiful.
The numbers from December are in, and it’s a familiar story. But while sales of homes and condos are still below the same time last year, the gap is narrowing as inventory slowly returns. But buyers still need to act fast with homes spending an average of 23 days on the market. As far as the bottom line, median sales prices were up year-over-year, more so for homes (16%) than condos (5%).
It was another tale of two markets during November in San Francisco. Home sales and median prices were up year-over-year, and properties spent less time on the market. On the flip side, condo sales and prices experienced a dip from 2022, and properties took longer to sell.
October was a month of polar opposites for home and condo sales in San Mateo County. While home sales bumped up 1% from one year ago, sales prices increased 8%, and homes are spending less time on the market.
Meanwhile, condo sales dropped 14% from 2022, prices fell 8% YOY, and properties are sitting on the market for two weeks longer than last year at this time.
