The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 1/25/2016.

January 25, 2016

The Scoop.

We are heading into the last week of January, and the San Carlos real estate market is tracking pretty closely to where we were at this point last year. Last January there were 23 new single family listings to hit them market. So far in 2016, we've had 16 single-family homes make their debut with another full week left to go.

While that may sound like good news on the surface, that statistic is a bit of a double-edged sword. While we are essentially keeping pace with last year, it's important to remember that 2015 produced the lowest number of listings in San Carlos in at least the last decade. This is a statistic that we will track frequently on the blog this year, as it's a critical indicator on where our local real estate market is heading.

It's also interesting to note that the average price for a single-family home that sold in San Carlos in January of 2015 was slightly over $1.3M. That figure has already topped just over $1.6M for the homes that have sold thus far this year, or a jump of 23%… 

Whether that's good news or bad news probably depends on if you're a home buyer or a home seller.

Here's last week's numbers:
