Home Sales Down, Market Up
The number of homes for sale in Santa Clara are down for the year.
This is a trend affecting not only our local market but the country in general.
The lower number of home for sale have caused the market to remain strong for sellers.
We are seeing homes sell quickly, and many multiple-offer situations with over bidding.
Home Inventory is Dropping
During the summer season, there is often a surge in the number of homes being listed on the market and inventory of homes for sale starts to increase.
We are seeing more homes coming on, but they are selling very quickly causing inventory of homes available for sale to decrease.
Currently there are around 30 homes for sale in Santa Clara which is low for this time of year.

Home Values on the Rise
Home values under the current low inventory are rising. The number of buyers looking right now are out numbering available homes, especially desirable homes.
Although mortgage rates are high and haven’t seen any significant drops in the last few weeks, buyers are actively looking and making offers.
Limited inventory and multiple offer situations are motivating buyers to get more aggressive and put in strong offers.
Other Factors Influencing the Market:
Mortgage rates have been fairly steady around 7%.
The FED in its most recent meeting decided to hold rates and not raise the FED funds rate.
The decision did not affect rates as rates stayed relatively close to their existing levels. Moving forward the FED mentioned that more rate hikes should be expected, but the market was unaffected. Signaling that Wall Street may think the worst is over for rate hikes.
Markets Year to Date
The stock market has been rallying as of late into new highs for the year.
Home buyers in our local market rely on tech stocks for their down payment and for their loan qualifications. The impact on stock values affects home buyer affordability and purchasing power.
Since the beginning of the year, the stock market has been rallying with pauses and drops.
Recently the Nasdaq which is a tech-heavy growth stock index has been performing well as investors are bullish that the FED will stop raising rates.

What to Expect Moving Forward
Buyers, the market is heating up.
If you follow real estate you will know the Summer market is where the market typically cools as there are more homes on the market.
However, this year with the lower number of homes coming on the market buyers are finding themselves competing with few options.
If you have been looking for a few weeks you have noticed this trend.
With the current state of rates, stocks, and low home inventory buyers are definitely feeling a bit more confident in the market.
Although the economic news is grim with job losses in the valley still a reality as the country slips into recession, high stock values have increased the wealth of local home buyers.
The weakening of the economy may concern some. The reality however, is a weakening economy could mean lower rates will come sooner than later, and likely followed by stimulus. Causing the stock market to really catch fire.
Of course all this is speculation, and the FED is doing what it can to downplay the situation.
My advice to buyers is to continue to shop and be very active. The market isn’t showing signs of weakness in spite of the weak economic conditions.
Sellers, generally the Summer is a slower time to sell, but that’s not the case this year.
Currently inventory levels are around 30 homes for sale, which is very low for the Summer months.
Now there is a lot going on right now in the economy. Some foreign economies are in recession, China is doing poorly, and overall you can expect the downturn to really start hitting the US economy.
We have seen a few bank failures, and more are likely to come.
There could be a situation where we do start to see weakness in the system and the market slows. So there is some risk here.
It all depends on the FED and how soon they respond.
My advice to sellers is if you want to make a move especially if you are thinking of making a move to a market where there is more new construction and supply of homes like Nevada, Idaho, and Texas then this market may be a great opportunity.
These markets are much slower than our current market, and in some cases, buyers are able to make contingent offers on new homes allowing them to sell their home before buying their new home.
There are many reasons why selling and buying in this market makes sense. Here is an article I wrote on the advantages of selling in slow markets.
Instead of offering general suggestions here, I would encourage sellers who have questions and concerns about selling in this market to reach out to an agent.
Understanding your specific situation helps in determining how this market will affect you and your options. I offer free consultations to buyers and sellers to discuss their needs, so please reach out, I am always happy to help.
Conclusion:
As always, whether you are buying or selling, understanding the current market will set you up for success. As I mentioned above some homes are doing quite well in this market.
Understand that the housing stock of Santa Clara is very diverse and can vary greatly from one neighborhood to the next.
Developing the right strategy for you, whether you are buying a home or thinking of selling your current home is important to succeeding in this market.
If you have any questions about a home on the market or your home’s value, please feel free to reach out, I am happy to meet and help you understand your options.
