    Characteristics per Quartile

  • The market appears to be hovering around this plateau. This week prices eased down a bit. The Market Action Index is a good leading indicator for the durability of this shift.

    Median Price

    Prices in most of the market have stabilized recently. Only Quartile 4 shows any price increases in the last few weeks. Often this condition happens in markets where demand has fallen (for example, due to micro-location variables) but supply is still relatively short. Buyers are focusing on the lowest price homes in the area.

    While prices have been basically flat, the price per square foot has been heading ownward. While not a sign of broad strength in a market, larger homes are coming more available and buyers are tending to get more home for their money.

    Price per Square Foot

    Inventory has been relatively steady around these levels in recent weeks.

    The Redwood City market is currently quite strongly in the Seller's Advantage zone (greater than 30). The 90-day Market Action Index stands at 79.37; indicating very little supply relative to the demand.

    Market Action Index

    Not surprisingly, all segments in the market are showing high levels of demand. Watch the quartiles for changes before the whole market changes. Often one end of the market (e.g. the high-end) will weaken before the rest of the market and signal a slowdown for the whole group.

    Market Action Index per Quartile

    Residential house prices are a function of supply and demand, and market conditions can be characterized by analyzing those factors. Watch this index for sustained changes: if the index falls into the Buyers

    Advantage zone (below 30) for a long period, prices are likely in for a downward correction.

    The properties have been on the market for an average of 40 days. Half of the listings have come newly on the market in the past 7 or so days.

    Days on Market

    It is not uncommon for the higher priced homes in an area to take longer to sell than those in the lower quartiles.
