4-Bedroom Homes for Sale in Carlsbad
December 20, 2018 Update
As a Carlsbad home buyer are you interested in more space than a 3-bedroom single family detached home provides?
Many buyers are! For some Carlsbad buyers extra space might be needed for multigenerational living, or for accommodating a growing household. Maybe a family member needs a home office, or additional guest living space may be desirable.
While the supply of single family detached homes continues to be limited in Carlsbad compared to demand, we have seen a pretty decent increase in listings since the beginning of the year especially in the spring (here’s the November 2018 Carlsbad Real Estate Market Report with more details about the things you should know).
However, with the inventory decreases during the holiday season we have only 2.1 months of inventory of single family detached homes with 4-bedrooms, based on the current rate of sales over the last 3 months. 4-bedroom homes currently make up 42% of the total inventory of detached single family homes listed for sale in Carlsbad.
