San Diego Housing Market

Graph of the median sale price in San Diego County, CA

The San Diego housing market remains highly competitive, with homes selling quickly and at premium prices. The median sale price (November 2024) is approximately $930,000, reflecting a 3.1% increase over the past year. Despite the growth in home values, the average time for a home to sell has slowed to 32 days, compared to 17 days previously, indicating a slightly longer process for traditional sales.

San Diego’s market is driven by strong demand, with many homes receiving multiple offers. However, properties often sell for around 1% below the list price, except for hot listings, which can sell 2% above the list price in as little as 11 days. The high cost of living, 45% above the national average, continues to influence buying and selling decisions.

For homeowners looking for speed and certainty, selling to SoCal Home Buyers is an efficient alternative that eliminates delays, repairs, and financing contingencies.
