San Diego Market Update January & February 2024

-

The only sure thing in life is change, and a New Year means changes to everything, including the real esate market. Interest rate flucuations, seasonal downturns and ongoing demand for real estate have mixed together to make the housing market in San Diego look pretty stable. Especially after the roller coaster of recent years. 

 

Below you can see the housing reports for both this month and last month. The biggest difference being that more people are ready to sell now that the holidays have passed and they're fullfilling their new year resolitions to finally downsize, or upsize, or move for whatever good reason, so more houses are the market. But, please note, demand is still high as well. 

 

What change are you gong to make this year? 

 

Whether you're considering buying or selling, give me a call so we can talk about your realistic options in our unique housing market.

Falling Mortgage Rates Are Bringing Buyers Back

  If you’ve been hesitant to   list your house   because you’re worried no one’s buying, here’s your sign it may be time to talk with an agent. After months of high rates keeping buyers on the sidelines, things are starting to shift. Rates are already coming down due to a number of economic factors. And yesterday the  Federal Reserve  cut the Federal Funds Rate for the first time since they began raising that rate in  March 2022 . And while they don’t control mortgage rates, this sets the stage for mortgage rates to fall even further than they already have – especially since more cuts from the Fed are expected into next year. And lower  mortgage rates  are bringing more buyers back into the market. Lisa Sturtevant, Chief Economist at  Bright MLS , says: “A drop in the cost of borrowing will help fuel more homebuyer demand . . . Falling rates will also bring more sellers into the market.” The best part? You can  take advantage  of th...

The market is heating up in time for the traditional summer rush. I wish I could say when the market will cool off or at least level off, But, I can't. All I can say is the economy is steady and the real estate market reflects that.    Below you'll find the housing report for the current month along with data from the preceding months. San Diego County continues to grapple with an inventory shortage. The average cost of a home has risen, but that doesn't mean there aren't still some affordable properties out there.    Whether you're contemplating a purchase or sale, I invite you to reach out. Let's discuss your options within the dynamics of our distinctive housing market, ensuring your decisions align with the current trends and realities.   If you know anyone who might be interested in receiving this market update every month, please have them sign up at this  link.   I am always here for my clients and their friends and family.   Your Forever A...
