🏡 East Bay Market Update: May 2026

The May numbers are in for single-family homes, and each neighborhood is moving to its own beat! Here is your quick look at what’s happening in Alameda, Oakland, and Berkeley:

📍 Alameda: A buzzing month! The median price reached $1.55M (+9.2%) with a big +24% boost in closed sales. 📈

📍 Oakland: Median price jumped to $1.25M—a massive +25% increase YoY. Fewer homes sold (-7.6%), but buyer demand drove prices way up.
🚀

📍 Berkeley: Median price hit $1.6M. Sales surged by +12% YoY, but homes are still flying off the market in a swift 14 days! ⚡

Every micro-market is different. Curious about what these shifts mean for your home equity or your buying power this summer? Let’s chat, send me a DM! 💌

Panoramic Bay views. Sparkling city lights. Total privacy. 🌅✨

Welcome to your Piedmont Pines retreat on coveted Chelton Drive — where lush, gated gardens meet sweeping vistas from San Francisco to the rolling hills beyond.

Cathedral ceilings, walls of glass, and a dramatic fireplace anchor the grand living room, framing breathtaking views at every turn. Natural light pours in, seamlessly blending indoor elegance with the surrounding landscape.

The spacious kitchen with double ovens and eat-in dining captures the outlooks beautifully, while the private primary suite rises above it all with stunning views over Montclair and the Bay.

Downstairs, a beamed family room with a second fireplace opens to an expansive view deck made for unforgettable entertaining. Nearly 60 years of love and legacy live here — a rare offering rich in warmth, character, and unforgettable scenery.

This is more than a home. It’s a view you’ll never stop chasing. 🌄

⚡️ April Market Update ⚡️
Buyer demand remains strong across Berkeley, Alameda, and Oakland, with homes continuing to move quickly this spring.

A few highlights:
• Alameda median prices climbed +9.2% YOY
• Oakland recorded 210 sold homes
• Berkeley homes averaged just 14 days on market

The market is still highly neighborhood-specific, but well-priced homes are continuing to stand out. If you’re curious about what’s happening in your block, price point, or timeline, I’m always happy to chat.

A look back at how the market performed across Oakland, Berkeley, and Alameda in March:

➡️ Homes are still moving quickly�➡️ Pricing trends vary widely by city�➡️ Inventory shifts are creating very different opportunities depending on where you’re looking

This is the kind of market where hyper-local knowledge really matters. The strategy that works in Berkeley may not work in Alameda—or Oakland.

If you want a targeted tread on your situation, shoot me a DM. 🎯

Nothing like heading for the hills and getting some epic bay views. And the ADU game is strong out here folks.

There is some great inventory available. If you’re looking to make a move in the East Bay, I’ve got you. Reach out and I’ll show you the best of the best.
