Here’s the preliminary data of detached-home sales for August between La Jolla and Carlsbad. By the time we’re done, the count should be 270 or so:

Reader ‘just some guy’ wondered why 2-3 homes are not selling around his newer Carlsbad tract neighborhood. It’s the time of year when buyers are exhausted by how fast prices have been escalating, and they are holding out for perfection now. Historically though, we have been able to keep up the sales pace – last year we had 264 sales in September, and 274 in October!

In last month’s count above, I did take out the four duplicate sales from the CRMLS, the MLS to the north. Note to Sandicor: Data-sharing is not the same as merging with CRMLS!
