The number of sellers in these counties are more by 25%-30% than a year ago.  While homes are coming out more the home seekers are still steady often with a preapproval letter already. All in all outside Silicon Valley the luxury homes prices took a hit. Many home sellers who used past high sold data were caught off guard. Most still sell at or over the last list price. Owners rarely took an interest in homes selling below asked price. 

Mortgage interest rate for 30 year fixed is 4.78 % and 4.08% for 15 year mortgage respectively (No points). That translates to PITI of $6,745 or $8,946 per month.

The experience to get you to the other side!

Sam,  My daughter lives out your way in a rental home. As I understand, San Francisco just last year became the #1 spot for "Most Costly Place to Live in the U.S."  I believe it!!

I also hear that there are now more folks moving out of the valley than moving in - is that a valid rumor?

SF Rental price has dropped about 15% from the peak from 2 years ago.  Yes, majority of the people selling today are cashing out their equity going to Oregon, Nevada, and Idaho.  Those who could not afford to own here moved to lower cost area like Phoenix buying a first home.  The data posted above suggested only high tech rich neighborhoods are desirable and holding up.  There are not too many people coming here for jobs.  But it is still 50,000 homes short no matter what.  It goes in cycles and we do not expect a job loss in the horizon.

Wow, 50,000 is still a huge number when it comes to housing.  My daughter is in San Bruno but probably moving closer your way in the coming months.  I will send her your name!

Sam, great market update for Silicon Valley by area, and with rates increasing, it definitely is making new buyers entering the market nervous.
