Housing Statistics Reports for San Diego County and North San Diego County August 2014

HomeDex logo housing statisticsA quick look at CoreLogic DataQuick’s statistics for August show the pace of the San Diego market increasing with the countywide median home price up 8.1 percent compared to August 2013 and slightly higher than it was in July 2014.

A closer look at those numbers gives a slightly different picture though. The HomeDex housing statistics reports indicate price increases are not across the board and appreciation is continuing to move toward a more sustainable rate. North County median prices have decreased slightly compared to July, and the year-over appreciation rate for North County detached homes is approximately three and one-half percent verses July’s year-over rate of almost seven percent. This slow down in the appreciation rate will hopefully allow wages to keep up with home prices.

Countywide the numbers are slightly higher with a year-over increase in the median price of single family detached homes at 5.15 percent. Inventory in both North County and in San Diego County as a whole remained unchanged in August.
