Market Analysis

The Greater San Diego real estate market is currently characterized by strong demand and limited inventory. With only 106 active listings available, the months of inventory at 2.7 suggests that homes are selling quickly, often above their listing prices, as evidenced by the sales-to-new-listings ratio (SNLR) of 109.8%. This indicates that more homes are being sold than are being listed, further tightening the market. Compared to May 2026, total sales have increased from 35 to 56, highlighting a robust upward trend in buyer activity.

Property Type Analysis

Analyzing property types, detached homes dominate the market with 40 sales, while attached and townhouse properties account for 16 sales. The demand for detached homes remains strong, reflecting a preference for single-family living in the current market climate. Although the median prices for these property types are not available, the sales figures indicate a healthy appetite for both detached and attached homes, with the latter seeing a remarkable 77.8% increase in closed sales year-over-year.
