As a buyer or seller in the Escondido real estate market, understanding recent trends and current market conditions is essential so you can make informed decisions; media reports focus on general market conditions and therefore will not provide an accurate picture of the local Escondido real estate market.

The following data are taken from the San Diego MLS (private sales are not included in these statistics, nor are multifamily properties or mobile/manufactured homes). The data are believed to be reliable but are not guaranteed.

In February 2011 there were 124 homes sold in the Escondido real estate market, up 23% from January. Sales volume rose significantly, whereas average sale prices declined but modestly. Buyers were able to negotiate, on average, about 1 - 3% off sales price.

Here’s the breakdown of overall activity.

	TOTAL	DETACHED	ATTACHED
# Sold	124 (up 23%)	107 (up 27%)	17 (no change)
Average $	$307,815 (down 3%)	$334,445 (down 6%)	$142,300 (up 7%)
Days on Market	98	107	53
Sale Price/List Price	97%	97%	99%

There were 258 Escondido homes (33% of all active properties) on the market with a Contingent status, i.e., short sale or REO homes that have offers being considered by lenders. These are included in the statistics below.

At the end of February 2011 there were 649 Escondido homes for sale, about 1% fewer homes on the market than at the end of January. This represents an inventory of 4 months for attached homes (down from 4.1 months in January) and 5 months for detached homes (up from 4.8 months in January), based on the current rate of sales over the last 6 months. Thus the market remains tight for buyers.

In February 200 homes came on the market, 15% fewer than in January. The number of homes going pending (143) increased, however, by 7%, from January pendings, a good sign for the Escondido real estate market.
