Greater San Diego Association of REALTORS® — June 2026

In June 2026, the Greater San Diego real estate market experienced a significant decline in activity, with total sales dropping to zero. New listings increased slightly to four, while active listings remained steady at eight, resulting in a months of inventory (MOI) of 3.1.

Market Analysis

The Greater San Diego real estate market is currently characterized as a seller's market, despite the absence of sales this month. The lack of transactions indicates a potential stagnation in buyer interest or market activity, which is further reflected in the sales year-over-year change of -100%. With only four new listings introduced in June, the supply remains limited, contributing to the current MOI of 3.1, slightly down from 3.3 in May 2026. This suggests that while sellers may have the upper hand, the overall market is not experiencing the usual dynamics of buyer competition.

Property Type Analysis

In June 2026, there were no sales recorded for either detached or attached/townhouse properties, indicating a complete halt in transactions across these categories. The absence of sales contrasts with the four new listings, which may suggest that sellers are hesitant to engage in a market with such low buyer activity. The lack of data for apartment properties further complicates the analysis, as no trends can be discerned in this segment.

Regional Highlights

Comparing June 2026 to the same month last year, total sales have increased slightly from four to zero, while active listings have decreased from eleven to eight. This decline in active listings, coupled with the stagnant sales figures, points to a tightening market that may be influenced by external economic factors or buyer sentiment. The region's overall inventory levels remain low, which could lead to upward pressure on prices if demand resurfaces.

For Buyers

For prospective buyers in the Greater San Diego area, it is advisable to remain patient and vigilant. With the current lack of sales, buyers may find opportunities to negotiate favorable terms on new listings as sellers may be more willing to consider offers. Staying informed about market trends and being prepared to act quickly when suitable properties become available will be crucial.

For Sellers

Sellers in the Greater San Diego market should consider the current conditions carefully. With a limited number of active listings, there may be an opportunity to attract buyers by pricing competitively and ensuring properties are presented well. However, sellers should also be prepared for a potentially prolonged selling process given the current lack of buyer activity.
