What This Means
Union City's housing market is showing mixed signals as we head into summer. While sales volume jumped 20.6% month-over-month to 41 homes, this likely reflects improved data collection rather than a genuine surge in buyer activity. The more telling metric is that the median price dropped 7.6% in June to $1.22 million, suggesting seasonal softness typical of early summer when inventory increases and buyer urgency typically decreases. That said, homes are still selling above asking price on average (101.1% ratio), indicating underlying demand remains solid despite the dip.
The year-over-year picture is more encouraging: prices are up 5.2% and sales volume is running about 11% higher than June 2025. Days on market have compressed to 53 days, down from 56, pointing to relatively healthy buyer interest. The main concern is the growing inventory of 106 active listings sitting at a median asking price of $1.162 million—nearly $60,000 below the actual median sale price, which could signal some overpricing among current sellers. For buyers, this inventory buildup offers more negotiating power than recent months.
