July Silicon Valley Real Estate Market Update

Quick Market Summary:  Sequentially median prices in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties keep nudging upwards since the recent low in December of last year. There are continued signs the market is topping as is usual for this time of the year (May-June). Last year the peak actually arrived in March and turned into a significant correction. As stated last month and because of the incredible "double ramp up" of prices in the latter part of 2017 and early 2018, we'll continue to see year over year decreases for a while. Overall, demand is below supply which puts downward pressure on prices and makes for listings staying on the market longer.

For June results, we see that Santa Clara County median prices are 4.6% lower than in June 2018. San Mateo County median prices have decreased 0.9% from the same month a year ago. Median prices for Santa Clara County stood at $1,335,000 versus $1,400,000.

It was 62% in San Mateo County versus 81% last year.

The hottest market in Santa Clara County again belongs to the Cupertino/Sunnyvale market area with a median price of about $1.994 million) at 103.3% which means that the average closed sale has a sale price 3.3% higher than the list price!

The coolest is the South County market area (Morgan Hill, San Martin and Gilroy) with a median price of about $0.884 million) with 99.7%.

Days of unsold inventory and another key indicator which is the intersection of supply of available homes compared to the demand, moved up and stands at 46.2 for Santa Clara County and 36 for San Mateo County. Both of these are higher than last year's figures of 33.3 and 32, respectively abd the highest since 2011. The current levels place Santa Clara County in a balanced market condition whereas San Mateo County remains in a seller's market condition since its level is below 40.

Historically, we tend to ramp up in the early months of the year with a peak near Memorial Day weekend or a bit before. So far it didn't happen in March. We'll keep an eye to see what comes of April technicals.
