The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 11-29-14.

It's kind of ironic that today is Cyber Monday, because there's virtually nothing for sale in the San Carlos real estate market.  As of this morning, there are only 6 single-family homes for sale in the entire city, which is spot on to what I predicted last week. It's even worse in the condo/townhouse market — there's only one of them for sale right now. December is not typically a month that sees lots of new listings, so you can expect that inventory is going to stay in the tank until after the first of the year.

On the topic of new listings, it certainly appears now that 2014 will finish with the lowest level of new single-family home listings to hit the market in the past 10 years — unless a flurry of new listings were to hit in the next 31 days. I will post all of the relevant statistics in the annual year-end wrap-up, but that's a significant trend that most certainly had an influence on the direction that housing prices headed in San Carlos in 2014…which, to nobody's surprise, will likely be the highest level on record.

Here are the details from last week:
