The North County and San Diego housing markets continued to see 16 to 17 percent, year-over price increases with inventory being squeezed down to almost nothing in November. And although closed and pending sales have dropped compared to last year, new listings have taken an even bigger hit. This is keeping a lot of pressure on our market with few options for home buyers.

The Case Shiller numbers for September showed some cooling in our incredibly hot market, and the October median price didn’t increase. But, countywide, November numbers showed a $10,000 monthly median price jump. Experts predict the market will ease off somewhat in 2022, but until inventory starts to rise, we’re not likely to see much change.

The number of homes for sale dropped by over 50 percent compared to this time last year. Sales continued to close at approximately 101.7 percent of asking price, and market times were slightly lower than they were a year ago.
