The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 5/9/2016.

May 9, 2016

2209-Carmelita-Drive

The Scoop.

It's obvious that the “Sell Your Home Now” memo got out to San Carlos home owners this past week. Between Monday and Friday of last week, 12 new listings flooded the market — most of them seemed to hit on Friday. That temporarily pushed the inventory up to 29 single-family homes for sale throughout the city. Both of those were high marks for San Carlos in 2016, by far.

Buyers were not idle last week either. Eight homes went into contract, with three of those eight being locked up in a week or less from the listing date. That settled the inventory down to 26 homes for sale at the time of this post.

Sold pricing faced some downward pressure, which is not something we've seen recently. The 5 homes that sold during the prior week only fetched an average of 98% of the asking price, and only one of the five actually fetched a sales price that was above the asking price.  That is certainly more severe that what's happening in the market right now, but you will certainly start to see more homes selling below their asking price than what we have grown accustomed to in this crazy uphill market.

Here is a look at last week's numbers:
