"We are most excited to see that home supply has nearly doubled since 2023, as this is indicative of increased construction and buying options for consumers to meet the ever-growing demand of San Diego County," said SDAR President Spencer Lugash. "While home sales have slowed, we view this as the market beginning to correct itself to adapt to the high interest rates.
"With anticipated rate decreases by the end of the year, we expect sales to increase over the coming months. As always, we encourage our members to consult with a local realtor to help make the most educated purchasing decision before buying a home."
The top-selling ZIP codes in June were Fallbrook with 50 properties sold, Rancho Bernardo East with 37, Rancho Bernardo West with 36, Spring Valley with 32 and Oceanside East and San Marcos tied with 29.
