The San Carlos Real Estate Week In Review: 5/16/09.

May 16, 2009

San Carlos Inventory Analysis

For the second straight week, home sales have far outpaced new listings in San Carlos.  Consequently, the inventory has dropped from 70 homes for sale just two weeks ago down to 60 this week.    Less inventory, and more pending sales means that homes are moving — and we're seeing increased signs of life in the $1M-$1.5M “move-up” market.    Here's a snapshot of the San Carlos market, as of 5/16. The previous week's stats are in parentheses:

Price Range Active Pending Ratio
Homes < $1M 34 (37) 20 (20) 1.7 : 1 (1.9 : 1)
Homes $1M –$1.5M 15 (18) 10 (7) 1.5 : 1 (2.6 : 1)
Homes >$1.5M 11 (11) 2 (2) 5.5 : 1 (5.5 : 1)
Total 60 (66) 32 (29) 2.3 : 1 (2.8 : 1)
