Rise Homes Alameda Market Update for July 2025, with a swipe arrow.

As we step into the heart of summer, Alameda County’s housing market is showing all the signs of continued competitiveness—though with some interesting shifts worth noting.

Single-family market infographic: seller’s market, 1.96 months of inventory, 16 median days on market, and $1.25 million median sold price.

Alameda market infographic: 3.88 months of inventory, 27 median days on market, and $725,000 median sold price.

Alameda market infographic: 2.41 months of inventory, 19 median days on market, and $1,075,000 median sold price.

📉 Months Supply of Inventory: 2.49 

This metric signals a seller’s market. With less than three months of supply, homes are selling quickly and buyers are competing for limited options.

📊 Inventory Trends: -7% MoM, +8% YoY 

Month-over-month, inventory dipped by 7%, giving sellers an edge with fewer competing listings. Year-over-year, however, inventory is up 8%, showing signs of a gradual easing for buyers. This balance suggests opportunities for both sides.

⏳ Median Days on Market: 19 

Homes are moving in under three weeks. For sellers, this means well-prepared listings attract immediate attention. Buyers, meanwhile, should be prepared to make quick, decisive offers.

💰 Sold to List Price: 103% 

Sellers are consistently seeing offers above asking price. Multiple-offer scenarios remain common, and buyers should be ready to compete aggressively to secure their home.

🏠 Median Sold Price: $1,080,000 

This median reflects steady property values across Alameda County. For buyers, it sets a realistic expectation of the investment required. For sellers, it reinforces the strength of pricing in today’s market.

🧭 What this means for you

🟩 Sellers: Now is a strong time to list. With fewer new listings coming in this month and buyers still competing, your property could draw multiple strong offers.
🟦 Buyers: While inventory has improved year-over-year, the short-term dip means competition remains tough. Be prepared to act quickly, make competitive offers, and work closely with an experienced agent.
