The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 4-27-13.

April 29, 2013

San Carlos Real Estate Summary.

Buyers were certainly busy this past week in San Carlos.  10 homes went into contract over the past 7 days, leaving us once again with a paltry inventory level heading into the new week.  In fact, the ratio of active/pending is so absurdly low this week that it's almost comical.  As I've stated before, in a normal market, you'd expect that ratio to be at least 2.0 – 3.0….i.e. 2-3 times as many homes for sale as the number that are pending sale.  This week it sits at 0.34!!    It almost defies logic to have that number sitting below 1 for as long as it has been.   But that's the market we are in right now, and there doesn't seem to be any indication that it's changing any time soon.

Here are the numbers from last week:
