Carlsbad Real Estate - Carlsbad Market Report for March 2009
The Carlsbad real estate market continues to show some positive trends, and the statistics for March show a number of changes as compared to February 2009.

These data do not include any private sales nor manufactured/mobile housing; the numbers are derived from the MLS and are believed to be accurate but are not guaranteed. 
Media reports speak in general terms, rather than local, so that information may not represent the reality of our local Carlsbad real estate market. Having data from a knowledgeable agent about the local market conditions benefits you as the buyer or seller.
In March 2009 there were 71 homes sold in Carlsbad's 4 zipcodes, as compared to 52 for February (a 36% increase in sales). Here's the breakdown of overall activity.
 
The number of sales was up significantly from February, by 36%; the average sales prices AND median sales prices were all up for detached homes over the averages for February 2009 but dropped for attached homes. I suspect the drop has to do with the larger number of REOs selling. The DOM also declined from February as people are waiting less time to make moves on the well priced properties, especially detached homes.
