The December California state real estate numbers have a few striking year over year elements that show the stronger market in 2019 compared to 2018. The affordability Index is better by 14+%, even though the median price is up 10%, primarily because the interest rates are a full percent lower than the end of 2018. The quantity of sales are up, and the corresponding unsold inventory and days on the market are lower.
Without an unforeseen economic or political shock, 2020 is shaping up to be a strong market. Quantity of sales may not realize it’s potential because of low inventory.
