The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 7-30-11.

August 1, 2011

San Carlos Real Estate Summary.

There was a nice surge of new listings this past week, especially during the latter half.  The distribution in the price range of these 12 listings is fairly evenly spread, thus providing some new choices for buyers whether they're in the $850,000 range, or as high as $1.5M.   Buyers are still making decisive moves on houses that they like — 3 of the 6 homes that went pending this week were on the market less than one week!

It should be a very interesting week coming up for the entire real estate market.  The specter of a default on our national debt could have serious consequences throughout the country.

Here's a quick snapshot of the inventory of San Carlos single family homes as of 7-30-2011.
