Key Market Metrics for February 2025

📉 Months Supply of Inventory: 2.67
Alameda County is still experiencing low inventory, which means that homes are selling quickly and often at or above asking price. A low months supply of inventory indicates a seller’s market, where demand outpaces supply.

📊 12-Month Change in Inventory: +59.88%
Although inventory levels have increased by nearly 60% year-over-year, there’s still a strong demand for homes. This increase signals a potential shift towards a more balanced market in the future, but we’re still in a competitive environment for buyers.

⏳ Median Days on Market: 15 Days
Homes are selling fast! The median days on market is 15 days, which shows that well-priced homes are getting snapped up quickly. Buyers need to be prepared to act fast to secure a property in this market.

💰 Sold to List Price: 101.4%
Sellers are seeing success, with homes typically selling for more than their listing price—often due to multiple offers and competitive bidding. This is great news for sellers looking to maximize their return on investment.

🏡 Median Sold Price: $700,000
The median sold price for homes in Alameda County remains strong. With a solid demand for homes and higher-than-expected sale prices, it’s a great time for sellers in Alameda.

What Does This Mean for Buyers and Sellers?

For Sellers:

This is a prime opportunity to sell your home! With demand high and inventory still low, you could see multiple offers and potentially sell for more than your asking price. If you’ve been thinking about selling, now may be the perfect time to list your home.

For Buyers:

While inventory has increased, the competition is still fierce. Homes are selling quickly, and prices remain high, so it’s essential to be prepared. Get pre-approved, stay flexible with your preferences, and work with a knowledgeable real estate professional who can help you make strong offers in a competitive market.
