The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 5/9/22

May 9, 2022

The Recap:

Despite all of the economic challenges that are being thrown at the current real estate market, home prices continue to soar in San Carlos and other local communities. 2/3 of the homes that closed escrow last week in San Carlos fetched 6-figure premiums over their asking prices. Granted, there are a few below that were arguably under-priced to significant degree, but there are still a lot of additional home sales yet to be posted that are seeing multiple 6-figure bumps from their list price.

If there is going to be a “leveling off' in this market, you'll start to see it hit the “fringe” homes first — those which have some sort of detriment that would be far more objectionable when we are in a more balance market. These are homes that are on busy streets, or ones that are in rough shape from lack of updating and maintenance, or finally homes that have limited yard space. When those homes start to encounter problems selling, that will be a good sign that the market may be starting to slow down.

Here are the sales numbers from last week:
