In June 2020 there were 97 homes sold in San Marcos’ 2 zip codes (92069 and 92078), 80% more home sales than last month, a trend seen in some other communities like Carlsbad. Here’s the breakdown of overall activity:
Detached Homes Sold
67 (up 81%), 31 Days on Market, Average Sales Price $813,333 (up 10%), Average sale 99% of original asking price
Attached Homes (condos, town homes) Sold
30 (up 76%), 28 Days on Market, Average Sales Price $464,931 (up 1%), Average sale 99% of original asking price
Overall sales volume in June was substantially higher than last month, with big increases in sales for both styles of homes. The average sales price increased for detached single family homes and attached homes, the latter only slightly. The average time on the market was about the same for detached homes and attached homes, but still about 1 month.
10% of the transactions were for cash, vs. 19% last month. While buyers negotiated sales prices on average by 1% off original price, over half of the San Marcos home buyers, 51%, paid full price or more for their new homes, a good indication of the competition and multiple offers! The median sales price of detached homes was $710,000 (down 2%) and $480,716 (higher by 11%) for attached homes/condos/townhomes.
There were 10 San Marcos homes for sale at the end of June with a Contingent status, versus 4 last month. 1 is a court approval and the rest are first right of refusals. These homes are included in the overall Active statistics below.
The San Marcos real estate market inventory declined from last month by 9%, with 112 homes for sale. This represents an inventory of only 1.7 months for attached homes (up from 1.9 months last month) and 1.3 months for detached single family homes (the same as last month) based on the current rate of sales over the last 3 months.
The San Marcos real estate market remains a very strong seller’s market, based on the buyer demand and current inventory, especially for detached homes, even during the pandemic.
In June 2020 we saw 139 homes come on the market, a substantial increase by 11% compared to new listing for last month, despite the pandemic. The number of homes going pending also increased significantly, by 34%, to 126 pendings (excluding the homes that closed in June), a busy month.
This overview of the San Marcos real estate market is based on data from the MLS for homes that went under contract in the last month or so and closed in June.
