Cardiff Real Estate - Cardiff Market Report for February 2009

Cardiff real estate market report

As a buyer or seller in the Cardiff real estate market, having information about the current market conditions will enable you to make an informed decision regarding what to do with regard to buying a home in Cardiff, or selling your Cardiff home.

The Cardiff real estate market is very localized, and knowing what is going on in the market with regard to inventory and sales is important for making a buying or selling decision. Finding comparables for determining price for either a listing or a purchase can sometime be tricky. 

Here is a summary of the Cardiff real estate market for February 2009 based on information provided by the MLS (private sales are not included). These data are deemed reliable but are not guaranteed. 

  • In February 2009 there were 7 homes sold in Cardiff, over twice the number sold in January - 5 were attached properties (average price $327,900, DOM = 46, selling at an average of 92% of asking price) and 2 were detached (both selling for under $450,000, the very low end of the scale for detached homes in Carlsbad).
  • The average sales price of a Cardiff home was $548,171, but given the small number of homes sold this number is not very meaningful. 

Because of the very small number of homes sold, one can not draw any conclusions of the pricing trends. 

As of February 2009 there were 56 Cardiff homes for sale (37 detached homes, and 15 attached homes), a 12% increase in inventory over January. This represents an inventory of only 4.1 months for attached homes (just slightly less than at the end of January 2009) and 12.3 months for detached homes at the current rate of sales (based on a 6-month period), which was also a slight decrease from the end of January. 

20 Cardiff homes came on the market in February (13 detached, 7 attached), a 67% increase over January, with 7 homes going pending during the same period - 6 detached and 1 attached - also an increase over January by 40%.

Data are based on information provided by the MLS for homes that went under contract in the last couple of months.
