Greater San Diego Association of REALTORS® — June 2026

In June 2026, the Greater San Diego real estate market experienced a significant surge in activity, with total sales increasing by 180% year-over-year to 18 transactions. New listings totaled 27, while active listings decreased to 52, resulting in a months of inventory (MOI) of 3.9, indicating a seller's market.

Market Analysis

The Greater San Diego real estate market continues to show robust demand, as evidenced by the sharp increase in sales compared to June 2025, when only 8 homes were sold. The current sales figure of 18 reflects a strong buyer interest, despite a relatively low number of active listings at 52. The seller's market is further underscored by a sales-to-new-listings ratio (SNLR) of 66.7%, indicating that homes are being absorbed quickly as they enter the market. The months of inventory at 3.9 suggests that the supply is not keeping pace with demand, which is typical in a seller's market scenario.

Property Type Analysis

In June, detached homes dominated the sales landscape, accounting for 14 of the 18 total transactions. The attached and townhouse segment saw 4 sales, highlighting a disparity in demand between the two property types. The higher sales volume of detached homes may be attributed to their larger living spaces and outdoor areas, which are increasingly sought after by buyers in the current market environment.

Regional Highlights

Regionally, the 92014 zip code, which includes Del Mar, reported 14 closed sales for detached homes with a median price of $4,125,000, reflecting a year-over-year increase of 180%. The attached segment in the same area saw 4 closed sales at a median price of $2,655,000, also showing a positive trend with a 33.3% increase in closed sales compared to the previous year. This growth in both segments indicates a healthy demand for properties in desirable coastal areas.

For Buyers

Potential buyers are encouraged to act swiftly in the current market, as the low inventory levels and high demand can lead to competitive bidding situations. It is advisable for buyers to get pre-approved for financing and to be prepared to make offers quickly when suitable properties become available.

For Sellers

Sellers are in a favorable position in the current market, with a strong demand for homes and a low months of inventory. To maximize their selling potential, homeowners should consider pricing their properties competitively and ensuring they are in excellent condition to attract buyers quickly.
