As January 2026 wraps up, the San Diego real estate market is moving at a more balanced pace. Inventory remains tight, supporting home values, while buyers are more selective and price-conscious due to higher mortgage rates.

Well-priced, well-presented homes with good access are selling quickly and with strong seller terms. Others may see longer market times or need adjustments.

Looking ahead, the market is expected to remain steady, with strong opportunities for sellers who price strategically and market effectively.
