The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 9-27-14.

September 30, 2014

The San Carlos real estate market is resolving any doubts about any potential softening or leveling-off coming out of the slower months of July and August.  Buyers are definitely out in full force this Fall, as open houses have been very well attended and multiple offers are still happening for the right properties.

Five of the eight homes that went into contract this past week were on the market for less than two weeks.   Many of the hotter issues are only on the market for a single week, which means buyers must prioritize getting in to see these homes as soon as possible, whether at the open house or via a private showing.   As the daylight hours start to dwindle at this time of they year, that poses even a bigger challenge if you're trying to view homes after work during the week.

And speaking of hot new listings, stay tuned to the sight in the coming days – I've got another spectacular downtown home that will be on the market this weekend.

Here are the details from last week:
