Over 3,000 homes on the market - and we're still seeing the average cost of a home hovering around $1.2 million! It feels a little crazy - but there are willing and able buyers out there! Prices will decline slightly due to a seasonal drop in demand - but, over the next few years I believe home values will continue to hold steady.  Below you'll find the housing report for the current month along with data from the preceding months. San Diego County continues to have with an inventory shortage, even with lots of new construction. 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.   Hope Opens Doors

Not much of a decline - no crazy price increases.  With interest rates going up and some uncertainty on Wall Street - those that must are the ones moving. Everything in its own time.    But, remember, we are still in one of the best real estate markets of our lifetime - especially if you're a seller. This is still a competitive market. IF you're looking to buy you can expect a little more wriggle room when you're making offers.    If you know anyone who might be interested in receiving this market update every month, please have them sign up at this  link.   PONDER THIS - "“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” - Maya Angelou  Students are returning to school this year.
