The snapshot of the Alameda market shows that the number of new homes
on the market last week is down a bit from the previous week’s statistics. Pending activity has decreased from the previous week.  


Average sales price has decreased this week from $540,866 the previous week to the current week’s sales price of $510,524.  A snapshot of the Alameda real estate market does not show a true picture of the market trend.  More time is needed to determine trends.



Prices have climbed but there are still good values in Alameda.
This is still a good time to be looking for a home since interest
rates are very low in 3% - 3.5% range.  The low inventory may be the
only impediment to finding a home.  However, new homes have continually
come on the market this summer.  Buyers need to have an agent who
watches the market frequently and knows what is available now.



My snap shot of the Alameda real estate market reports are important and provide valuable information over the long run.  But, if you want to know your property’s current market value, or what you should offer on a particular property, you need a Comparative Market Analysis which will comparelike properties; apples to apples and oranges to oranges.



Looking for a home in the Alameda? I have lived in Alameda for nearly 40 years. I know the market and can help you buy a home in Alameda.  I can send an email to you every day of any new activity on the market.  Call or text me at 510-504-5612.

Evelyn - Excellent real estate market snap shot of the Alameda, California area.  Staying current on market trends is very important when inventory is low, and pricing are quickly changing.  You really serve your clients well with having such a good understanding of the Alameda area.
