Most buyers and sellers won\u2019t see a much improved housing market, but economists are confident that affordability and normalcy will return in the coming years.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>San Diego County Prices Grew Slower Than the Nation\u2014but Still Hit a Record<\/h2>\n<p><iframe id=\"datawrapper-chart-krRHi\" style=\"width: 100%; border: none;\" title=\"San Diego County, CA Median Sale Price vs. U.S.\" src=\"https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/krRHi\/\" height=\"438\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" aria-label=\"Line chart\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>The median sale price in San Diego County reached $937,251 in July, a 2% gain from a year ago, trailing the national growth rate of 3% for the second consecutive month.<\/strong> That might sound like cooling, but context matters: at nearly $940,000, San Diego remains one of the most expensive large counties in the country and has appreciated roughly 60% since early 2020. The median price per square foot slipped about 1% to $583, suggesting the gain reflected modestly larger homes trading rather than pure value expansion.<\/p>\n<p>Price cuts remained rare relative to the national average. Only 22% of active listings carried a reduction, compared with 19% nationally, and the typical cut was just 3.8% of the original list price. The average home sold for 99.5% of its asking price, just a hair below list, and over a third sold above asking. For a market where the median home costs nearly a million dollars, sellers held pricing power with little need for concessions.<\/p>\n<h2>Pending Sales Dropped While Closings Surged\u2014a Split Signal<\/h2>\n<p><iframe id=\"datawrapper-chart-vf4Oq\" style=\"width: 100%; border: none;\" title=\"San Diego County, CA Pending Sales vs. U.S.\" src=\"https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/vf4Oq\/\" height=\"438\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" aria-label=\"Line chart\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Pending sales fell 7% year over year in San Diego County, a sharper decline than the national dip of less than 1%, even as actual closings rose 8%.<\/strong> The divergence between closings and new contracts suggests that July&#8217;s strong sales reflected a backlog of spring activity rather than fresh demand entering the pipeline. The typical home went under contract in 29 days, down 7 from a year ago and 20 days faster than the national median of 49. Over a third of listings went pending within two weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Homes sold hit 2,293 for the month, the highest July total since 2021. Nationally, closings slid slightly. That gap showed San Diego buyers were still active, but the forward-looking metric (pendings) flashed a warning: fewer contracts were being written, which could translate to softer closings by autumn. For now, the market remained firmly in sellers&#8217; territory, but the trendline bore watching.<\/p>\n<h2>Inventory Kept Shrinking While the Nation Held Flat<\/h2>\n<p><iframe id=\"datawrapper-chart-2DFJF\" style=\"width: 100%; border: none;\" title=\"San Diego County, CA Active and New Listings\" src=\"https:\/\/datawrapper.dwcdn.net\/2DFJF\/\" height=\"438\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" aria-label=\"Line chart\" data-external=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Active listings in San Diego County fell 6% year over year to 8,959, while nationally inventory barely budged.<\/strong> New listings were essentially flat at 2,821, meaning the supply drawdown came from rapid absorption rather than sellers pulling back. Months of supply stood at 2.76, well below the national figure of 3.94 and deep in seller-friendly territory. At the current pace, the entire available inventory would sell in under three months.<\/p>\n<p>The lack of new supply left buyers with limited options. Despite San Diego&#8217;s inventory nearly doubling from its 2023 low of around 5,000 active listings, it remains well below the pre-pandemic level of 10,000 to 12,000. National inventory also sits below its 2019 baseline, but by a much smaller margin. Homes that were priced correctly continued to move fast, and the overall compression in supply kept upward pressure on the market even as pending activity softened.<\/p>\n<h2>Mid-Tier Led Sales Growth; Bottom Tier Prices Declined<\/h2>\n<table class=\"tier-table\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align: left;\">Price Tier<\/th>\n<th>Median Price (YoY)<\/th>\n<th>Sold (YoY)<\/th>\n<th>DOM (YoY)<\/th>\n<th>% Above List (YoY)<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\">Luxury (top 5%)<\/td>\n<td>$3,774,028 (+3.3%)<\/td>\n<td>413 (+24.0%)<\/td>\n<td>32 days (+6 days)<\/td>\n<td>21.8% (-1.0 ppt)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\">High (65th-95th%)<\/td>\n<td>$1,508,286 (+1.0%)<\/td>\n<td>2,126 (+3.5%)<\/td>\n<td>21 days (-1 day)<\/td>\n<td>36.4% (+3.6 ppt)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\">Non-luxury (35th-65th%)<\/td>\n<td>$910,446 (+0.9%)<\/td>\n<td>2,134 (+10.9%)<\/td>\n<td>21 days (-1 day)<\/td>\n<td>42.8% (-0.7 ppt)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\">Starter (5th-35th%)<\/td>\n<td>$649,672 (-0.2%)<\/td>\n<td>1,855 (-3.1%)<\/td>\n<td>28 days (0 days)<\/td>\n<td>39.1% (+0.2 ppt)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\">Bottom (bottom 5%)<\/td>\n<td>$387,514 (-2.2%)<\/td>\n<td>358 (+19.7%)<\/td>\n<td>46 days (+5 days)<\/td>\n<td>29.6% (-1.2 ppt)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"font-size: 11px; color: #999; margin-top: 8px; font-style: italic;\">Redfin analysis of MLS data \u2022 Rolling three-month period (April-June 2026)<\/p>\n<p>The non-luxury tier (35th-65th percentile, median $910,446) posted the strongest volume growth at nearly 11% year over year, with homes selling in 21 days. The high tier saw the biggest jump in above-list activity, gaining 3.6 percentage points to 36%. Luxury homes ($3.77M median) moved more slowly at 32 days, and sales volume surged 24%, though much of that likely reflected a low base from the prior year.<\/p>\n<p>At the bottom, prices fell 2% and homes sat 46 days\u2014nearly double the county median. The starter tier was essentially flat on price, and volume dipped 3%. Competition concentrated in the middle and upper tiers, where days on market hovered around three weeks and above-list rates ran between 37% and 43%. Buyers shopping below $650,000 faced fewer bidding wars but longer waits; those in the $900,000-to-$1.5M range encountered the most aggressive competition.<\/p>\n<h2>How Buyers and Sellers Can Navigate the San Diego County, CA Housing Market<\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re buying in San Diego County, expect speed. The median home went pending in 29 days, and over a third sold above asking. Financing approval before you tour is essential, and offers at or above list attracted the fastest responses. The non-luxury tier between $650,000 and $1.5 million saw the most intense competition. Buyers with flexibility on price tier, either stretching toward luxury or pivoting to the starter segment\u2014may find slightly more negotiating room.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re selling, the data supported confident pricing. Active listings fell 6%, months of supply sat below 3, and homes moved in under a month. New listings barely grew, so competition among sellers remained muted. Price accurately from the start: fewer than a quarter of active listings carried a price reduction, and those that did typically cut less than 4%. The softening in pending sales, however, suggested that overpricing carried more risk heading into fall. Homes that missed the window may sit longer as buyer activity moderates.<\/p>\n<h2>San Diego County, CA Market Data by City<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-size: 13px; color: #888; margin-bottom: 15px;\">Rolling three-month period (May-July 2026).
