December 2022 San Diego Real Estate Market Update

-

The real estate market has held steady in San Diego despite all the doom and gloom reporting around rising interest rates. We are seeing a normal seasonal dip in average home value and inventory. This shortage is considered seasonal. While we don't anticipate 2023 to be the wild real estate ride that was 2021-2022 we also don't expect much of decline in home values.

I'm including October's and November's reports at the bottom here, so you can see the changes as we moved into the winter real estate season.

We go on adventures to live. Sometimes it’s amazing and sometimes it spirals into a mess. Yet we go on. -- Winter is when we can recover and prepare for the next test of our spirit. Make some tea and recover before planning for the new year. Please, sit and rest a while.

  2023 is already making headlines for the Real Estate Market. Don't let the bad news scare you. There really is no crash in sight according to the professionals. San Diego is even less likely to experience a steep downturn. There's just too much demand for what comes on the market here. The gains in 2020, 2021 & 2022 were so extreme, any decline at all just indicates a stabilizing market.   Rising interest rates may mean that some buyers will look into risky loans, this article below will arm you with the knowledge necessary to avoid a mortgage pitfall.    I love hearing from everyone on this email list. I am here to support you whatever your real estate needs might be.     January - Ponder this -  “We are born in ignorance, we die in ignorance, but maybe sometimes we learn something important and pass it along to others before we die.

Curious about the Real Estate Commision Ruling?

-

    Are you aware of the settlement reached by the National Association of Realtors (NAR) in a class action lawsuit last week?   This settlement could potentially have significant implications for the real estate market, particularly in regions with high property prices, like ours.   The lawsuit alleged that NAR's rules and practices regarding the sharing of commission between buyers' and sellers' agents stifled competition and inflated housing costs. As part of the settlement, NAR agreed to make changes to its rules and practices, including allowing greater transparency in commission rates and providing more information to consumers.   In high-priced regions like ours, where housing costs are already a concern for many buyers and sellers, any changes resulting from this settlement could have notable effects. Greater transparency in commission rates might lead to increased competition among real estate agents and potentially lower costs for consumers. However, it's esse
