We're onto the second quarter in the Santa Clara County real estate market, so I wanted to give you a quick update.
When we last checked on the market, inventory was just over 1,000 homes, average price was around $860,000, average days on market sat about 69, and the interest rates were sitting around 3.75%. So what's happened since then? Well, we're entering a presidential election, and the Federal Reserve increased interest rates. People thought this would increase mortgage interest rates, but they actually came down a little bit.
Starting in the second quarter, homes on the market have gone up by 700, price is up to $931,000, and the average days on market has fallen to 41, and of course, interest rates are down around the 3.625% range for 30-year fixed mortgages. This means we're still in a seller's market, but there is some more inventory. In some areas, we're starting to see homes get fewer offers, but it's still very competitive and sellers are still getting top dollar quickly.
