Pleasanton Home Sale Activity

Pleasanton overview

Homes priced up to $799k have done considerably better in sales as compared to previous years. No doubt raising the conforming loan limits to $729k (due to expire shortly), contributed to this significantly.  Homes priced over $2 million continue to fare poorly in sales.
The average days on market fell considerably from the previous month, whilst supply stayed steady. The 200 active homes in Pleasanton represent a 3 month supply at current absorption rates which is healthy. The median price for July was $789k higher than last year’s $785k at this time.

8 new homes came on the market in August. 11 of the active inventory homes are priced over $2 million and 10 have been on the market for over 3 months. The question is often asked as what the going psf (price per square foot) rate is in Ruby Hill these days. This varies considerably depending on the quality of the home construction, the yard, the views, short sale/bank owned and so forth. Currently active properties range from $280-$545 psf!

8 homes went under contract in August – very healthy activity, given that higher end homes have not been selling well nationwide. Unfortunately a good chunk of these homes are short sales.

Of the 36 homes that have sold this year, the psf has ranged from $248 (short sale)-$397, averaging at $347 psf. An encouraging point to note is that 24 of these homes were on the market for less than 2 months before receiving an offer!

Pleasanton ranks high for liveability!
