The California Association of Realtors predicted that statewide sales in 2018 would increase 1%, and the California median sales price would rise 4.2%.
My guess was for the San Diego County detached-home sales to drop 5%, and the median sales price to rise 5% in 2018. How are we doing?
Here are the detached-home sales and median price for the first nine months of the year in San Diego County:

It may seem like the sky is falling, but we should just appreciate how great we’ve had it over the last few years, and accept that we’re going to have fewer sales from now on. Here are the stats for La Jolla-to-Carlsbad:
