/in /by

Almaden Valley Real Estate Market September 2024 – The September single family real estate market in Almaden Valley definitely favored sellers. Although the number of for sale listings was the same as August, the number of sold listings increased 50%. When compared to the same time last year, there was an increase in number of homes for sale and a 50% higher number of sold listings. Sellers were happy to see that the average sale price per square foot edged up from $945 in August to $987 in September, and up from $950 the same time last year.

Although the Almaden Valley real estate market favors sellers, now can be a great time to buy. During the holiday season, we tend to see a bit of a cooling trend.

August sales data for Almaden Valley single family homes is showing indications that we are sliding into our annual holiday market cool-off. The number of homes for sale and sold have dropped from July. The number of homes under contract HAS increased, but this is likely in large part due to inventory from June being absorbed by buyers.

The average price per square foot bumped up from $1,024 in June to $1,056 in July, supporting strong buyer interest during our usually slower time of the year.

It is definitely a seller’s market. Contact me now if you think the time is right for you to make that move!

Almaden Valley Real Estate Market June 2024 – The Almaden Valley single family home market ended June on a quiet note. After April’s and May’s strong showing, the market is settling into the seasonally quiet summer period. Inventory increased significantly since May; 32 homes for sale in June versus 25 the previous month. The number of homes that sold dropped from 42 in May to 21 in June, and the number of pending contracts experienced a similar drop from 32 to 20 during the same time period.

All that being said, the average price per square foot increased from $993 in May to $1,024 in June, indicating that there is still keen buyer interest in Almaden Valley despite the sleepy summer. Mortgage rates have remained fairly steady, a factor that doubtlessly is contributing to the continuing buyer interest in Almaden Valley.

Almaden Valley Real Estate Market Update January 2024

/in /by

The Almaden Valley single family home market started the year on a high note. Although we saw a drop in homes sold in January (12 sold versus 16 in December), the market experienced a jump in the number of homes under contract (14 in January versus 10 in December.) The average price per square foot edged upward, from $921 in December to $967 in January.

We usually see the market warming up around the first of the year as it emerges from the holiday slow-down. However, when we compare to January 2023, we can see that January 2024 is ahead of the game. January 2023 saw 13 homes under contract and 8 sales versus 14 under contract and 13 sales of this year. In addition, the average price/sqft was $802 a year ago versus $967.

Part of this undoubtedly is due to tight inventory. There were 21 homes on the market in January 2023 versus 13 this year. This represents about 2.6 months’ worth of inventory in January 2023 versus 1.1 month in January 2024. The Almaden Valley real estate market has been tending towards being a seller’s market but has flirted at times with swaying towards buyers. But January definitely belonged to the sellers.

July 2023 Almaden Valley Real Estate Market Update

/in /by

The Almaden Valley single family market continues to show strength as inventory remains tight and buyer demand sustains. When compared to June 2023, we DID see a bit of a drop in the number of homes on the market, listings that sold and listings that went under contract, but when compared to the same time last year, sales were much higher. This is likely due at least in part to the fact that inventory remains critically low. We have had less than one month’s inventory since spring of this year, varying slightly from .9 months to .6 months.

The average price per square foot has retracted slightly from June 2023 and is also slightly lower than it was the same time last year. This indicates that the market is in somewhat of a balance between sellers and buyers. Although inventory is tight, buyers appear to be a bit more discerning. However, well marketed homes are still finding buyers. If you are thinking about selling YOUR home, call me and let me show you how I can help sell your home in our challenging market!

May 2023 Almaden Valley Real Estate Market Update

/in /by

The May single family market in Almaden continued a trend of tight inventory, with the number of pending and sold listings outpacing the number of homes on the market. Although the number of homes that sold in May retracted slightly from April numbers, the number of pending transactions has continued to trend upwards.

In short, the Almaden Valley market appears to be in a stable mode with market control somewhat more favoring sellers than buyers. We see this in the increase in the average sale price of $923 in May versus $818 in April. As we enter the summer, we expect to see the market cool off a bit, with lower inventory, sales and prices, but buyer interest is remaining keen.

Although the real estate market looks favorable, it has slowed down compared to the same time last year. Buyers are still craving inventory, but we are not seeing sellers absolutely dominating as we have the past few years. We are seeing a bit more balance between buyers and seller.
