My thoughts: Sales are holding up nicely here at the end of August - a time when the buyer pool could have, and should have been completely exhausted. With five business days to go plus late-reporters, we should see this month's closed sales get up to 160 or so and be...
Sales and Price Check
NSDCC July Sales
The median sales price of houses sold between La Jolla and Carlsbad last month was 13% lower than it was in June, which demonstrates how terrible it is for a gauge. Obviously, the houses sold are different each month. In July, there happened to be 35% more houses sold...

July Data
It's August 1st, which means the local 10k InfoSparks data has been updated for July. The NSDCC median sales price may be 17% lower than it was in June, but maybe nobody will notice because it is a subset only we are following closely. The general data looks more...
San Diego #1 In USA
The Case-Shiller Index has risen more this year in San Diego than in any other metro area! Could we end up being the most expensive metro in the country some day? It could happen, and it would be a return to the top spot, according to Channel 8 - check the first 30...

Summer 2023 Pricing
The local home pricing is still off the highs of early-2022, but not by much. The smaller sample sizes (fewer sales) will make it harder to accurately identify the trends and cause more frustration/indecision for both buyers and sellers. Have we recovered, or just...
NSDCC Pricing Comeback
Anyone who thought the long slide last year was just the beginning has to be sorely disappointed now. This is the greatest comeback of all-time!
NSDCC April Sales & Pricing, Preliminary
Here is the early count on April sales between La Jolla and Carlsbad, with YoY and MoM comparisons: There will be some late-reporters but April sales won't get up to the 184 sales we had in March - which will probably end up being the best month of 2023 (remember that...
Prices Expected to Bottom
Price-wise, we are back to where we were at the end of 2021, so the data above should still be in the ballpark. Glad to see that San Diego isn't considered as wildly overvalued - it's expensive here and people can afford it, apparently. I like that the J.P. Morgan...
