The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 10/24/09

Seems like old times again in San Carlos.  Check out the home sales for this week — 5 of the 7 homes that closed escrow fetched more than their asking price.  It’s so strange to see that now, but it used to be the norm only 18 months ago.   And of the 7 homes that went pending this week, 4 of them were on the market less than two weeks.

If you’re looking for that inflection point that tells you the market has hit the bottom, I don’t know how much clearer it can get than this.

Here’s a snapshot of the San Carlos market, as of 10/24. The previous week’s stats are in parentheses:
