Alameda's housing market continues to reflect high demand and low inventory this May, making it a strong seller’s market.
This figure indicates that the market remains competitive. A balanced market typically has around 5–6 months of inventory, so 2.63 months suggests limited options for buyers and strong negotiating power for sellers.
While this slight uptick points to a small increase in listings compared to last year, it hasn’t been enough to shift the market away from favoring sellers. Inventory is still tight, which helps drive strong offers.
Homes in Alameda are selling fast—just two weeks on average from listing to sale. This signals intense buyer competition and a need for quick, decisive action from house hunters.
Buyers are continuing to offer over asking in many situations. This trend reflects bidding wars and high buyer demand, especially for well-maintained or move-in ready homes.
Alameda continues to attract strong pricing, with a median sold price that keeps sellers in a favorable position. While this price point might stretch some buyers, it also reflects the value and desirability of the area.
🟩 Sellers: With quick sales and strong returns, now is an excellent time to list your property.
🟦 Buyers: Be ready to move fast and make competitive offers—partnering with an experienced local agent will be essential.
