Rain or shine, the Los Altos Real Estate Market paints a sunny picture! This for some may be starting to sound like a broken record, but inventory is so low in Los Altos, that nearly every home that comes on the market seems to sell very quickly and with multiple offers! Well, that is true for some price points, and overall if you are a seller in Los Altos, you are in a fortunate position. Here  is an in depth look to break down the reality of the market and shed some light for both buyers and sellers.

Here is an example of a great home that is currently listed and is within the largest majority price point of homes sold in Los Altos:  1085 Saint Joseph Avenue, Los Altos

 Unless you haven’t been paying much attention to Real Estate, you have probably heard the market is changing. SVAB takes an in depth look at five different areas of our Silicon Valley market place in a new “mini-series” to help understand exactly what is going on and give some insight as to where things may be heading.  We start with Los Altos Hills, which even through the eyes of a seasoned expert can be a  fickle micro market. With topography, proximity to 280, lot size, square footage, style of house, types of amenities and condition all playing a huge factor in pricing…(just to name a few) understanding the Los Altos Hills market home values can be challenging! The below graphs should provide a clear sense of the latest data and trends.

Here is an example of a beautiful luxury estate that is currently listed and is within the largest majority price point of homes sold in Los Altos Hills:  26462 Purissima Road

 

As the market changes, we will continue to update you on the latest trends in our markets. Tune in all week for a look at the top Silicon Valley market places.
