The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 8-2-15.
August 3, 2015
The Scoop.
The further that we get into this amazing run up in home prices all along the Peninsula, the more we seem to find ourselves circling around the $2,000,000 sales mark for homes in San Carlos. In all of 2014, there were 26 homes that sold for $2M or higher in San Carlos (on the MLS) — there are already 20 in just the first 7 months of 2015. What makes this number even more remarkable that there have been 9 homes that just missed this apex in 2015, having closed between $1.9M and $2M. Two of those 9 closed this past week.
Having reported on the San Carlos real estate market every week for the past 8 years, it still blows my mind that I am reporting numbers like this for San Carlos. Truly amazing.
After a few quiet weeks, the condo and townhouse market has kicked back to life. There are 4 new listings that hit the market last week, which should give shoppers in the market segment a little bit more to see. And speaking of noticeable price increases, the unit that closed this week at 3 Bellflower Lane along the previous sale at 20 Buttercup Lane are serving notice that you should be thinking about a number beginning with $1.3M if you want a clean 2BR townhouse with a view up in Crestview Park.
Again, truly amazing…
Here's the scoop from last week:
