Carlsbad, CA 92008 Property Values Are Increasing


NEIGHBORHOOD/MARKET AREA DESCRIPTION
In Carlsbad, CA 92008, there is a mix of property types present with most being residential, schools, parks, airport, recreation, or commercial. While a wider range of living areas are present, most single family residences range in living area size from 1,311 Sqft to 3,297 Sqft, with the most common being approximately 2,000 Sqft.  Most properties (76%) have 4 or 3 bedrooms, and most properties (56%) have 2 or 2.5 bathrooms. Most single family residences range in year built from 1961 to 1999 with the most common year built being 1990.

MARKET CONDITION
In Carlsbad, CA 92008, and as of the 12 month period ending 05/05/2013, single family residence sale prices ranged from $275,000 to $6,350,000, with a median of $605,000. The median sale price changed 23.6% over the past year indicating an 'increasing' property values trend. The median $/Sqft changed 22.7% over the past year indicating an 'increasing' property values trend. There are currently 2.39 months of housing inventory indicating a demand/supply trend of 'in balance'. The median market exposure time over the past 30 days was 20 days. Based on recent-past market exposure times, I anticipate that the typical/median marketing time will be under 3 months over the coming 90 days. Property value trends may be misleading due to a decreasing ratio of bank sales and short sales, and an increase in the ratio of renovated properties.
