That\u2019s down from more than 45 percent a year earlier\u00a0 and the lowest rate since at least 2011.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The national bidding war rate hasn\u2019t surpassed 15 percent since November 2018, after falling steadily from a peak of 59 percent in March 2018.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMortgage rates have been mostly flat for the last month, and so has homebuyer competition, which was beginning a fast descent this time last year as mortgage rates were inching toward 5 percent,\u201d said Redfin chief economist <a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/blog\/author\/darylfairweather\/\">Daryl Fairweather<\/a>. \u201cOn a local level, it\u2019s noteworthy that some of 2018\u2019s fiercely competitive markets\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/city\/17420\/CA\/San-Jose\">San Jose<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/city\/16163\/WA\/Seattle\">Seattle<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/city\/11203\/CA\/Los-Angeles\">Los Angeles<\/a>\u2014have seen their bidding war rates plummet the most year over year. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/blog\/june-2019-housing-market-tracker\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home prices in these expensive markets have also been falling annually<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Overall, I expect homebuyer demand to strengthen in the second half of the year as the housing market continues to stabilize, but we may not see a big pop in bidding wars until early next year.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/city\/17151\/CA\/San-Francisco\">San Francisco<\/a>\u2014one of the most expensive markets in the country\u2014was the most competitive in July, with 35 percent of Redfin offers facing a bidding war. That\u2019s down from 72.4 percent a year earlier and up from 28 percent in June, mirroring the seven-percentage-point increase seen from June to July of last year.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAlthough the market isn\u2019t as hot as it was last year, this spring and summer have been busy in San Francisco. That\u2019s partly because homebuyers are feeling pressure to move quickly due to the high-profile tech IPOs, whether that pressure is real or perceived,\u201d said San Francisco Redfin agent <a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/real-estate-agents\/miriam-westberg\">Miriam Westberg<\/a>. \u201cLow interest rates are also a factor in increased homebuyer interest since the beginning of the year. The market has definitely picked up since the winter and it seems like prices and competition are slowly heading back to mid-2018 levels.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-66424\" src=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/national-bidding-war-rate-july-8.6.jpg\" alt=\"July bidding war rate\" width=\"864\" height=\"603\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/national-bidding-war-rate-july-8.6.jpg 864w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/national-bidding-war-rate-july-8.6-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/national-bidding-war-rate-july-8.6-768x536.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/city\/16904\/CA\/San-Diego\">San Diego<\/a> was home to the second-most competitive market in July, with 21.3 percent of Redfin offers facing competition.
