As a buyer or seller in the Solana Beach real estate market, understanding recent trends and current market conditions is essential in order to make informed decisions; area media reports focus on general market conditions and therefore will not provide an accurate picture of the Solana Beach real estate market conditions. 

The following data are taken from the San Diego MLS (private sales are not included in these statistics, nor are multifamily properties). The data are believed to be reliable but are not guaranteed. 

In June 2010 there were 18 Solana Beach homes sold, 1 less than last month. Here's the breakdown of overall activity.

Sales volume shifted slightly over May volume, however prices dropped substantially due to lesser price homes selling in June than in May (especially detached - a $4.5M sale last month raised average substantially). 

At the end of June 2010 there were 118 Solana Beach homes for sale, 4 more than in May. This represents an inventory of 7.6 months for attached homes (up from 7.3 months) and 7.5 months for detached (up from 7.2 months) based on the current rate of sales over the last 6 months.

Can You Guess What This Is?

The beauty of California's agriculture never ceases to amaze. If you ever drive through some of the hotbeds of agriculture you cannot help but be impressed by the amount of land that is allocated to produce and fruits, in areas like Oxnard, and the Central Valley (Kern, Tulare, Fresno and Merced Counties).

California is the nation's top producing agricultural state, and some time spent in any of the major agricultural areas will convince you of why this is so. The diversity and amount of products we see coming from California is truly amazing. 

The beauty of our weather is that many small communities, and individual farms and homeowners, can grown produce in abundance...small and large. 

Do you know what this is?

As a buyer or seller in the Solana Beach real estate market, understanding recent trends and current market conditions is essential in order to make informed decisions; area media reports focus on general market conditions and therefore will not provide an accurate picture of the local housing market in Solana Beach. 

The following data are taken from the San Diego MLS (private sales are not included in these statistics, nor are multifamily properties). The data are believed to be reliable but are not guaranteed. 

In May 2010 there were 19 Solana Beach homes sold, the same number that sold in April. Here's the breakdown of overall activity. 

Sales volume did not change over April volume, which is, of course, better than a decline. The average price rose significantly for detached homes, but this appears to be due to the sale of a $4.5 Million home which drove the averga up substantially. 

At the end of May 2010 there were 114 Solana Beach homes for sale, 2 more than in April. This represents an inventory of 7.3 months for attached homes (down from 7.5 months) and 7.2 months for detached (down from 7.6 months) based on the current rate of sales over the last 6 months.

Fiesta del Sol in Solana Beach

The ever-popular - well, for the last 30 years - Fiesta del Sol is happening next weekend, June 5 and 6, in Solana Beach, CA. 

Read More: Solana Beach Real Estate - Seaside Community Extraordinaire 

Fiesta del Sol is one of the more popular outdoor festivals in our neck of the woods, with 50,000 expected. And the location can't be beat - the streets adjacent to the beach at Fletcher Cove in Solana Beach. 

Fiesta del Sol is a 2-day festival of fun, music, food, entertainment and shopping, sponsored by the City of Solana Beach, the Solana Beach Chamber of Commerce, and the best live music venue around since 1974, The BellyUp Tavern. 

Hopefully the sun will make an appearance, but given the time of year, June Gloom may limit this a bit. But there's no gray today at all so it's anyone's guess, and given all there is to do at Fiesta del Sol it won't matter anyhow.

In addition to all the shopping, there will be paintball, a kids' interactive area, and a beer garden, face painting, a rock climbing feature, an inflatable jump, llama rides, along with a host of food booths. 

Entertainment-wise, there are some terrific area bands appearing: a great reggae group from LA, the Aggrolites, and Atomic Groove, a local fave at The BellyUp Tavern and other venues, to name just a couple. 

The Solana Beach Fiesta del Sol is one heckuva good time, by all reports. Put it on YOUR calendar for next Saturday and Sunday, June 5^th and 6^th. 

The event is free and just west of the Coast Road/Route 101. Consider taking the Coaster to avoid the parking nightmare - the Solana Beach train stop is just a couple of blocks from Fiesta del Sol.
