Homeowners and Sellers – Market Update


Homeowners and Sellers – Update: 05/11/2026

The San Diego housing market remains strong, with home values holding near record highs and well-priced homes continuing to attract serious buyers. While inventory has increased and homes are taking about 43 days to sell on average, motivated buyers are still active despite mortgage rates averaging around 6.5%. Strategic pricing, professional marketing, and skillful negotiation are more important than ever to maximize your sale price and achieve the best possible terms.

San Diego’s housing market in May 2026 is more balanced, with higher inventory giving buyers more choice and reducing bidding wars, while well-priced homes still attract strong interest; median prices remain near the mid-$900Ks, but days on market have risen to about 3–5 weeks and buyers are more focused on negotiations and concessions, especially with mortgage rates in the mid-6% range limiting affordability—making accurate pricing and strong presentation essential for sellers to achieve the best results.

San Diego’s Spring 2026 market favors sellers, though it’s more balanced than the pandemic frenzy. Median homes near $900K still sell quickly—about 28 days—if priced right and well-presented with staging and updates. Inventory is up, giving buyers more choices, so realistic pricing and strong marketing are key. While some homes sell below list, tight supply in coastal and top school areas keeps the market tilted toward sellers. Success depends on strategic pricing, quality presentation, and readiness to negotiate as buyers are more deliberate and rates influence affordability.
