Monthly Market Report for June 2023, for North SLO County

Did everyone have a nice 4th of July?  Luckily the weather was perfect!  Inland it was warm (but not too hot) and it was clear and pleasant on the coast.  I spent the day with family enjoying the beach and ending the night with a fantastic fireworks show! 

I’m also excited that we are finally experiencing some summer weather.  The June gloom seems to be behind us!  I for one am excited and ready for some warm weather!

In analyzing the data, it shows that prices across the board are a little down from this time last year.  This is not entirely surprising because the number of sales are also down.  We have been talking about the fact that we have entered back into a more stable, normalized market and this is evident of that. 

Even though prices are slightly down, the days on market (time it takes for a home to sell) are still hovering in the single digits.  Inventory levels are also remaining at historically low levels.  This means as a home comes on the market, buyers are hungry to grab up the new inventory. We can see this when comparing the average sales price to the average list price.  In most cases, homes are selling at or slightly above the list price.  So, our housing market on the Central Coast is remaining strong.

Here are some statistics for Atascadero, Paso Robles and Templeton for the month of June 2023.  If you would like to see information on other Central Coast cities, please let us know.

Just Sold! 8800 Atascadero Ave, Atascadero

Congratulations Trudy @trudyfutak.realtor and Ashley @ashleyhanson.realtor for representing the buyers of this home in Atascadero.  These buyers knew exactly what they were looking for and were willing to be patient in order to get what they wanted.  After seeing several homes, they decided this was the one for them.  They wanted a home that needed a little TLC so they could customize it with some projects around the house.  This one fit the bill perfectly!  Bonus, it's a colony home which the buyers absolutely love!  They can't wait to get started on some home projects and make this home their own.

Why You Can’t Compare Now to the ‘Unicorn’ Years of the Housing Market

Why You Can’t Compare Now to the ‘Unicorn’ Years of the Housing Market

Comparing housing market metrics from one year to another can be challenging in a normal housing market – and the last few years have been anything but normal. In a way, they were 'unicorn' years. Continue Reading.

Just Sold! 1471 Osprey CT, Templeton

Congratulations Mike @slocountynative on representing the buyers of this home in Templeton! This is proof that persistence and positioning yourself as the backup offer can have a wonderful end result. This home received multiple offers but unfortunately Mike's client's offer was not chosen. Mike coached his clients and they agreed that they would like to be the backup offer and boy did it pay off!  After the home fell out of escrow Mike's clients were able to step in and get their offer accepted! Bonus, this home has a pool! Just in time for this beautiful weather and summertime!

Just Sold! 1611 Westfield Rd, Paso Robles

Congratulations Baxter @baxterboyington on representing the buyer of this home in Paso Robles. Baxter's client is beyond thrilled! She had been looking for over a year and went through 4 other realtors! Baxter not only found his client her next home but it was in her price range, in great condition and had a short escrow so she could take possession quicker. Great job Baxter!

Monthly Market Report for May 2023, for North SLO County

Monthly Market Report, May 2023

June is here but I’m not sure what this weather is about?! This definitely is not typical weather for June on the Central Coast. It’s also the last week of school for most kids here on the Central Coast. Graduations will be happening this week and the kids will be on summer break. Mine are ready for school to be out! Do you have any plans this summer?
The second quarter is shaping up to be a big one. The number of new listings coming on the market continues to steadily increase. However, even with the number of new listings ticking up, the buyers’ demand seems to be as thirsty as it’s been the last couple years. Homes are going under contract, days on market, at a quicker rate than the first 4 months of 2023.
While looking at the numbers you can see that prices are continuing in an upward trend. Comparing the average sold price for May 2023 to May 2022, we can see that prices have indeed increased. We also notice that when comparing average list price to the average sold price, homes on the Central Coast are selling close to list price or above. This indicates that the real estate market continues to be strong on the Central Coast.
Here are some statistics for Atascadero, Paso Robles and Templeton for the month of May 2023. If you would like to see information on other Central Coast cities, please let us know.

Congratulations Jaime on representing the sellers of this home in Atascadero. We love referrals! These clients were referred from a previous client of Jaime's and they were thrilled with the results.
