You can see the hot spots around our area from comparing the actives to pendings. We have seen in the past that a 2:1 actives-to-pendings ratio is a good barometer to indicate a ‘healthy’ marketplace.

With short sales being approved faster and buyers hanging on, I’ve included the contingent listings with the pendings. Here is how the detached-listing counts break down:

Area or Zip Code ACT C+P Ratio (X:1)
Csbd 92009 115 136 0.84
Csbd 92011 63 64 1.00
Ency 92024 131 97 1.35
RSF/DM/SB 371 78 4.76
San Elijo Hills 27 62 0.43
S-luz 92127 117 147 0.80
CV 92130 138 97 1.42

To see every area except the ultra-highenders be well under the 2:1 ratio is remarkable.
