Overall sales volume in the Solana Beach housing market for May dropped substantially, with fewer than half as many single family detached sales but the same number of condos, townhomes and duplexes. The average sales price for single family homes was lower (in part due to 6 sales last month for over $2M, with 1 at $11M, that raised the average for April); the average sales price of condos and townhomes was slightly higher than last month.
The average marketing time for single family homes was slightly shorter, as it also was for condo, townhomes and duplexes, both at a little over 2 weeks.
Some buyers were able to negotiate their sales prices down from original list price. However, about half of the Solana Beach buyers (48%) paid asking price or higher for their new homes.
The median sales price of the condos, townhomes and duplexes in May was $1,302,888 (up 32%). The median price of the single family homes that sold was $2,650,000 (up 35%).
At the end of May 2021 there were 24 homes for sale in Solana Beach, ranging in price from $605,000 to $19,750,000, 7 more than last month (up 41%) and good news for buyers. Solana Beach has a housing inventory of 1 month for condos and townhomes (up from 13 days last month) and 1.1 months for single family homes (down from 1.4 months last month) based on the current rate of sales over the last 3 months.
The housing market continues to be a very strong sellers’ market for condos, townhomes and duplexes, and for single family homes.
There were no Active Under Contract listings in May, like last month.
In May 27 new listings came on the Solana Beach real estate market, 2 more new listings than last month, and some good news for buyers. The number of homes going pending (excluding homes that sold in May) decreased, however, with 15 pendings compared to 24 last month. But it was still a fairly busy month for buyers and sellers.
