What This Means
San Carlos showed some seasonal softening in June as summer typically brings cooler buyer demand in this Peninsula market. The median price dipped 5.2% month-over-month to $2.56 million, though it's still holding steady about 2.5% above last year's levels, suggesting the market hasn't lost ground fundamentally. What's more telling is that homes sat on the market three days longer than in May—now averaging 37 days—indicating buyers are taking their time rather than rushing into offers. This is normal for June, but it's worth noting that sellers are still getting top dollar: homes sold at 103.5% of list price, which reflects San Carlos's persistent desirability despite the slight cooling.
The growing inventory tells an important story. With 63 active listings on the market, many with average days lingering around 64 days, we're seeing more options available than earlier in the year. This is healthy market balance—enough supply that buyers aren't desperate, yet nowhere near oversupply. Most activity remains concentrated in single-family homes (25 of 31 sales), which typically command premium prices here. Unless interest rates shift dramatically, expect this measured pace to continue through summer, with prices likely stabilizing around current levels rather than making dramatic moves in either direction.
