Greater San Diego Association of REALTORS®: April 2026 Market Sees Limited Sales Activity Amidst Low Inventory

Greater San Diego Association of REALTORS® — April 2026

April 2026 recorded zero total sales, according to figures published by the Greater San Diego Association of REALTORS®. The market saw two new listings and four active listings, resulting in 2.9 months of inventory. Despite the absence of sales, market conditions are characterized as a sellers' market due to extremely limited supply.

Market Analysis

The market for April 2026 experienced exceptionally low activity, with zero total sales reported. This figure contrasts with one sale in March 2026 and one sale in April 2025. Given the extremely small sample size of zero sales, percentage changes in sales volume are not meaningful and are therefore not emphasized in this report.

Property Type Analysis

Inventory remains constrained across all property types. Detached homes saw two new listings and four active listings, but recorded zero sales in April 2026. Attached properties, including townhouses, reported zero new listings, zero active listings, and zero sales, indicating an even more acute lack of available properties in this segment.

Regional Highlights

Within the specific market area analyzed for April 2026, figures published by the Greater San Diego Association of REALTORS® indicate a persistent sellers' market, primarily driven by critically low inventory levels. With only four active listings and 2.9 months of inventory, the supply-demand dynamic heavily favors sellers, even in a period of no recorded sales. This represents a slight increase in months of inventory from 2.3 in March 2026 and 2.5 in April 2025, yet supply remains well below balanced market conditions.

For Buyers

Buyers in this market face significant challenges due to the extremely limited inventory. With only four active listings, competition for available properties is likely to be intense. Buyers should be prepared to act quickly, have their financing pre-approved, and work closely with a REALTOR® to identify and secure opportunities as they arise.

For Sellers

Despite the zero sales recorded in April 2026, the market remains firmly in favor of sellers due to the severe lack of available homes. With only 2.9 months of inventory, properties that are well-priced and properly presented are likely to attract significant attention. Sellers should consult with a REALTOR® to strategically position their home to capitalize on the strong demand and limited supply.
