Cliff’s Viewpoint:

Seller’s Market

Redwood City CA: We are seeing changes in the average sale price for homes move up only $400 last week. And the length of time on the market is stable since the beginning of April. These trends favor home sellers. The Sale Price vs List Price ratio is down from 2018 and is hovering between 3.5% – 4.5% for 2019.  The months of inventory available is staying under 2 months. The number of new homes brought on the market for sale is equal to the homes sold.

We are seeing home prices being reduced in price or cancelled and being relisted at a reduced price. This has been unheard of for the past few years making home buyers happier.

10 – Homes under $1M of the 81 listings available – (12.34%)

Basic Real Estate Truism:

Question: When is the perfect time to purchase your home?

Answer: Today is the correct answer! If you said yesterday you were correct, however, too bad those prices are gone. I don’t see any let up on the current strong demand for homes either. I believe this trend will continue to be supported of upward, at least for the rest of 2018.

Open Houses stay alert.

When you go to a Sunday Open Houses in Silicon Valley you will see Redwood City real estate agents, and many home buyers looking at the homes along with you. The home buyers from the tech industry like  Oracle, Electronic Arts, Google, Facebook, Intel, Box, LinkedIn, Instagram, and Buffer are out in full force, along with the bio-tech home-buyers from companies like; V Biosciences, Abbott Vascular, AbGenomics, and Genotech ready to place offers on their new homes. And, they all seem to have large sums of discretionary income to spend too.

As you can see the real estate market in Redwood City is still very strong and homes are selling faster and receiving higher priced offers.
