Temecula, CA 92592 Housing Trends

In the Temecula, CA zip code of 92592, and when considering the median $/Sqft, property values have fluctuated over the past year but are steady overall and indicate a stabile property values trend.  There have been less than 10 months of housing inventory each month over the past year, indicating a stable demand/supply trend.   The median marketing time for sales has been less than 90 days each month over the past year indicating a marketing time trend of less than 90 days.

Statistics indicate historically high foreclosure activity which suggests that future declines from bank sales and other potentially distressed selling activity, such as short sales, are possible. They also suggest that banks may be withholding inventory from the market, presumably to promote property value stabilization and increases, and that property value statistics may not reflect natural market forces and may not be reliable. A continuing supply of potential foreclosures indicates that the risk of property value declines will continue into the near future.
