Local insights from Redfin agents
The median sold price dropped to $860K, but price-per-square-foot actually went up. Buyers are just buying smaller, nicer homes. Use the "falling prices" headline to negotiate hard on larger, dated properties.
Hayward's fall market offers fantastic value for East Bay buyers. With median prices holding around $845K and homes averaging 20 days on market, you have breathing room to negotiate on older homes. Yet pristine, turnkey properties still move fast....
