Spotting trends in the market is certainly the way to find the market bottom of the Santa Clara Valley real estate market.  In this post I am looking specifically at Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, Mountain View, Los Altos, Saratoga, Los Gatos, and Los Altos markets.  Looking at Sales and Inventory information to get an idea of how inventory is moving or not moving.

Santa Clara Started the year off great compared to last year’s figures.  The last two weeks however have failed to follow that trend and it appears that this years inventory figures have just barely passed up last years numbers for the same period last year.  Sales are about the same.  This may be a sign of higher inventory this year and more price drops to come.
