In San Mateo, the median sold price for single-family homes in July slightly decreased month-over-month to $1.8 million. The number of homes sold decreased to 330 and the number of new listings also decreased to 443. The number of condo & townhouses sales decreased month-over-month at $897,500 with 110 units sold and 149 new listings.


Buyers are also still being aggressive with their offer prices, with the median offer price

continuing to be above 100%. There is no doubt that higher interest rates have impacted demand for homes, especially in June when rates had reached their apex. But low inventory continues to be a factor as well. A balanced market is considered representative of 6 months’ supply of homes. When factoring in the amount of completed homes, the month’s supply of homes available was really less than a month at 25 days. This ongoing imbalance of supply and demand should continue to be supportive of home prices.

Many potential buyers are holding off on purchasing a home, anticipating that mortgage rates will drop even further. The common belief is that lower rates will make homes more affordable and provide better financing terms. This wait-and-see approach is based on the hope that a lower rate will save money over the life of the loan and make homeownership more attainable.

The seasonal impact on the market is as you might expect, a little slower. With many leaving on vacations, the number of homes on and coming to market reduces and open houses aren’t as packed. That doesn’t mean the market is on vacation though; quite the opposite! There's a wave of new buyers entering the market alongside those already in the market.
