For Home Sellers in San Diego
March’s numbers suggest a market that’s still competitive—especially for detached homes—while attached homes are showing a bit more balance.
If you’re considering selling:
- Detached: tight inventory can support strong pricing, but buyers still respond best to homes that are move-in ready.
- Attached: with slightly higher supply, pricing and presentation matter more, and buyers may have more leverage.
