The market continues to shift toward more inventory and more choices for buyers. Atascadero had 19 homes sell, down 41% from last year, with a median sales price of $820,000, up 2%. Paso Robles had 47 sales, up 18%, with a median of $800,000, down 2%. Templeton saw 10 sales, up 25%, with a median sales price of $1,057,500, up 5%. Homes are still selling relatively quickly, with average days on market at 21 in Atascadero, 29 in Paso Robles and 16 in Templeton. For buyers, more inventory means more homes to choose from and potentially more negotiating power. For sellers, increased competition may mean being a little more patient, pricing strategically and being willing to negotiate. Overall, the market is becoming more balanced, giving buyers more options while sellers need to pay close attention to pricing and competition.

Congratulations, Trudy & Ashley!

A big congratulations to Trudy and Ashley for representing their buyers on the purchase of their new Atascadero home! Even more special, their buyer was a former student of Trudy’s and they were first-time homebuyers!

This was a very smooth transaction, and Trudy and Ashley are so excited for them as they begin this new chapter. And of course, their puppy is pretty excited too—there’s finally plenty of grass to run and play in!

Congratulations to this wonderful family, and cheers to many happy memories in your new home!

Congratulations to Kelly for helping her clients navigate both the sale of their current home and the purchase of their new one!

Kelly has been working with the family on and off for four years. Her tenacity finally paid off when they found a home they loved and a seller willing to accept their contingent offer.

Now the boys have a big yard to play in, and she has room for her garden!

Congratulations to this beautiful family on their new home, and great job, Kelly!

The North San Luis Obispo County real estate market continued to show mixed results in July. While sales activity varied from one community to another, home values remained relatively stable overall and sellers continued to receive a high percentage of their asking price.  As market conditions continue to evolve, understanding what's happening in your local community provides the clearest picture of today's real estate market.

Atascadero recorded 28 home sales, a 20% decrease compared to July of last year. The median sales price climbed to $857,500, representing a 2% year over year increase. Sellers received 97% of their list price and homes had a median days on market of 20 days.

Paso Robles experienced the strongest sales activity of the three communities, with 72 homes sold, a significant 67% increase from one year ago. The median sales price came in at $745,295, a modest 3% decrease year over year. Median days on market for homes  were 27 days, while sellers received 98% of their asking price, reflecting continued buyer competition.

Templeton recorded 8 home sales, a 33% increase over last July. The median sales price was $1,157,363, down 19% from a year ago. Homes spent a median of 59 days on the market, and sellers received 96% of their list price.

Although sales volume and pricing continue to vary by community, the North County market remains healthy. Homes are still selling close to their asking price, indicating steady buyer demand. Proper pricing and strategic marketing continue to be the keys to achieving a successful sale, while buyers are seeing a little more time to evaluate their options in some areas than they did during the fast-paced markets of recent years.

The North San Luis Obispo County real estate market continued its gradual transition toward a more balanced market in June 2026. While home sales slowed compared to last year, inventory continued to grow.

A total of 28 homes sold in Atascadero, representing an 18% decrease from June 2025. Paso Robles recorded 46 home sales, down 19% year over year, while Templeton saw 12 homes sold, a 9% increase compared to the same time last year.

Home prices showed mixed results across the region. Atascadero's median sales price increased to $880,000, a 12% gain, demonstrating continued strength in the local market. In Paso Robles, the median sales price was $652,500, a 15% decrease, while Templeton's median sales price came in at $905,000, down just 1% from a year ago.

Homes are continuing to spend a little longer on the market as inventory rises. The median days on market reached 24 days in both Atascadero and Paso Robles, increases of 60% and 33%, respectively. Templeton reported a median of 18 days, which was 14% lower than last year.

Inventory also continued its upward trend throughout North County, creating more opportunities for buyers. Currently, there are 53 active listings in Atascadero, 174 in Paso Robles, and 38 in Templeton. Even with more homes available, sellers are still achieving excellent results. Homes sold for an average of 99% of their asking price in both Atascadero and Paso Robles, while Templeton sellers received 98%.

Overall, June's numbers reflect a market that is becoming more balanced. Buyers are benefiting from increased inventory and a little more time to make purchasing decisions, while sellers continue to see strong results. As the market continues to normalize, both buyers and sellers have opportunities to achieve their goals with the right strategy and local market expertise.
