As a buyer or seller in the Solana Beach real estate market, understanding recent trends and current market conditions is essential in order to make informed decisions; media reports focus on general market statistics and therefore will not provide you with an accurate picture of the Solana Beach real estate market conditions.

The following data are taken from the San Diego MLS for Solana Beach real estate (private sales are not included in these statistics, nor are multifamily properties or mobile/manufactured housing). The data are believed to be reliable but are not guaranteed. 

In June 2011 there were 23 Solana Beach homes sold, 11% more than the number of sales in April. Here's the breakdown of overall activity.

Jeff: Good information to have regarding that particular area...the Hamptons is an affluent area as well and we are still seeing the downward adjustment in prices here. It is good to see that you are seeing a nice increase in sales. I am the busiest agent in my office right now and my business is going strong. I think that the later we were affected by the real estate crash, the later it is going to be before we adjust as other markets. I may take a page from your local information and put out our most recent report too! Thanks for sharing it!

Paula - thank you for stopping by, Congratulations on being so busy - not everyone is in that situation. I agree - the areas that were hit earlier seem to be heading toward some sort of recovery, or are further along in the process. We are seeing more adjustments in the high end market, including REOs. Just saw a bankruptcy listed the other day for $19,000,000.

Thanks, Barbara - I appreciate the compliment.

Tom - it's a wonderful area with an eclectic downtown.
