What’s Selling in Los Gatos Now? How’s the Market?

by | Aug 31, 2015 | Homes & Housing Market

What’s selling right now in Los Gatos?  The Los Gatos real estate market tends to have warmer and cooler pockets. (Please also see  The Real Estate Market Trends in Los Gatos .) At the moment, almost anything listed for saleunder $2 million in Los Gatos 95030 and 95032, as long as it’s appropriately priced, staged, and marketed, is selling in under a month – and about half of those that sell do so in about 10 days.  The Los Gatos luxury home market is not quite so on fire, though. As the price rises, so does the “days on market”.

Here’s a quick view of the 95030 median list price by quartile (4 pricing tiers).  All levels have had some movement, but it’s most dramatic in the highest priced homes.

Next, let’s check out Los Gatos 95032, also for the median list price of houses for sale – same situation here with the most irregular movements happening in the top part of the pricing segments.

What about the days on market? (more…)

Los Gatos Real Estate Market Update for July 2010

by | Aug 5, 2010 | Homes & Housing Market

August 05, 2010

The Los Gatos real estate market cooled a bit in July after having a little improvement in the market in June. Sales fell 19.5% from the month before (up 13.8% year-over-year).

Prices slipped in July 2010 with the median sales price for Los Gatos houses dipping 1.6% from the previous month (up 7.0% compared to last year). The average price fell 1.2% in July, a yearly gain of 1.5%.  The low point of the market appears to have been in 2009, so anyone waiting for the best prices in Los Gatos may have missed that point already. 

Inventory fell 2.3% from last month, and was down 5% year-over-year.

Here are the numbers at a glance for houses in Los Gatos:

  • Prices slipped in Jul 2010 with the median price dipping 1.1% from the previous month, up 9.5% compared to last year. The average price rose 2.4%, a yearly gain of 13.8%. (Condo prices slipped more, in the 2-4% range.) 2009 appears to have been the bottom of the market.
  • Inventory rose 0.9% from last month, and was down 13.5% year-over-year.
  • The list price to sales price ratio slipped slightly but is close to 100% – so we are seeing lower list prices as well as lower sales prices.

by | Jul 6, 2010 | Homes & Housing Market

July 06, 2010

In general, the Santa Clara County real estate market cooled a bit in June with rising inventory and less demand by home buyers, but in Los Gatos it improved very slightly, while in Monte Sereno it worsened.  Below please find a summary from my Real Estate Report (which you can check out for more information on these areas as well as Saratoga, Almaden Valley, Cambrian Park, Campbell, etc.( Links for each section will take you to the referenced part of the REReport. You may also read a downloadable, 4 page pdf with more articles about the local realty market here.

The Los Gatos (95030 & 95032) Real Estate Market for June 2010 for Houses & Duet Homes

Trends At a Glance Jun 2010 Previous Month Year-over Year
Median Price $1,250,000 $1,231,150 (+1.5%) $1,078,750 (+15.9%)
Average Price $1,348,340 $1,416,700 (-4.8%) $1,078,250 (+25.0%)

Days on Market 47 46 (+1.8%) 69 (-32.2%)

The Los Gatos median sales price inched up both year over year and month over month.  (So more expensive homes are starting to sell.)  The average sales price of these houses improved significantly year over year (25%) but fell almost 5% month over month.  Closed and pending sales are both up and inventory is down 15% from a year ago and about 3% from last month.  The list price to sales price ratio fell a little and the days on market stayed close to the same from a month ago.  All in all, it is close to a balanced market for houses in Los Gatos according to the Real Estate Report.

The Monte Sereno (95030) Real Estate Market for June 2010

Monte Sereno has no townhomes or condos, so our market report is reflective only of houses (and estates).

Trends At a Glance Jun 2010 Previous Month Year-over Year
Median Price $2,387,500 $1,632,500 (+46.2%) $1,510,000 (+58.1%)
Average Price $2,387,500 $1,677,500 (+42.3%) $1,510,000 (+58.1%)
No. of Sales 2 6 (-66.7%) 1 (+100.0%)
Pending Properties 7 5 (+40.0%) 6 (+16.7%)
Active 39 34 (+14.7%) 30 (+30.0%)
Sale vs. List Price 100.7% 99.3% (+1.5%) 98.8% (+2.0%)
Days on Market 46 71 (-35.5%) 8 (+475.0%)

Sales prices are rising and the number of sales have increased while days on market have decreased.  But with 39 houses for sale in Monte Sereno and just 2 closed in June, that’s a lot more inventory than demand and reflects 19.5 months of inventory.  The rising number of pendings indicates that things are improving, and hopefully will help to counteract the also rising number of homes on the market. Buyers: this is a good time, generally, to purchase a home in Monte Sereno!
