Current Market Trends for Carlsbad, CA July 2009

If you have been paying attention to the News lately you are beginning to hear more positive comments regarding the Real Estate Market. 

There is clear evidence of an upward trend in the Carlsbad Real Estate Market.

In our last report Homes Sold Carlsbad April 2009, which is typically a pretty active month for Real Estate, we saw there were a total of 61 homes sold in the 4 zip codes of Carlsbad for that month.

That figure increased to 82 for the month of July, with and average Sold price being $715,756 only slightly down from April which was $737,415.

Another notable difference in the 2 reports are the number of active listings.  In April there were a total of 419.  In todays report there are only 355 combining the active and contingent listings.

One important factor that is not shown in this chart is the number of Short Sales and Foreclosures that are include this mix.  The Carlsbad area has fortunately been less affected by these distressed type properties as other areas of the San Diego North County such as their neighboring coastal city of Oceanside.

Of the 82 properties sold in July, only 7 of them were short sales, and of the 287 active properties, only 32 are short sales.  As for bank owned or REO properties in this area, there are only 20 that are currently active and 8 sold.

All in all it appears that this area has recovered rather nicely from the last couple of years down turn in the market.

As always, people will find the ways and the means to live near the beach, especially this desirable and well maintained community.
