SAN DIEGO - CARLSBAD - OCEANSIDE - VISTA - POINT LOMA - LA JOLLA - PACIFIC BEACH - LITTLE ITALY
San Diego’s housing market is settling into its typical late-summer slowdown, with inventory, new listings and pending sales trending lower.
Mortgage rates continue to be a major factor, with the average 30-year rate climbing to around 6.87% at the start of September. Inflation, oil prices and economic uncertainty have kept rates elevated, putting additional pressure on affordability.
What does this mean for you? Buyers may have more opportunities to negotiate on price, credits and terms, while Sellers need to be more thoughtful about pricing, presentation and marketing from day one. The homes that are positioned correctly can still sell; the strategy just matters more in today’s market.
