Real Estate Markets Are Local
Central Valley real estate should not be viewed as one single market. Prices, inventory, buyer demand, days on market and available property types can vary significantly from one community to another.
Even within the same city, neighborhoods and individual properties can perform differently.
What Buyers Should Watch
Buyers may want to consider available inventory, recent comparable sales, asking prices, price reductions, days on market, competition from other buyers and the overall condition of properties they are considering.
What Sellers Should Watch
Sellers should look beyond the highest recent sale price. Pricing strategy, competing listings, property condition, location, buyer demand, marketing and timing can all influence the outcome of a sale.
