The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 3-29-14.

March 31, 2014

calendar10

Last week was the kind of week you would hope for as we head into the month of April — lots of new listings to choose from, at least by this year's standard.  Eight homes made their debut last week, all being within the range of $1.4M – $2M.  And with only 4 homes going into contract during the same period, our inventory now sits at 16 homes for sale in San Carlos.

Home pricing remains extremely strong, as is evident below in the sold section.   For the second straight week, homes that closed escrow in San Carlos fetched a whopping premium over the asking price — this week it was 17% on average.   That is simply amazing, considering the fact that asking prices have already been adjusted upward during this recent run-up in the market.   If there's an upper limit to what buyers will do to get the right house in San Carlos, we have not hit it yet.

Here are the details from last week:
