More markets are seeing home prices rise, and the latest data is worth paying attention to.

Just one quarter ago, home prices were rising in roughly 71% of markets. Today, that number has moved to 80%.

That’s a meaningful shift in just three months.

Does that mean home prices are rising everywhere? No. Real estate is local, and what’s happening nationally doesn’t necessarily tell you what’s happening in San Diego.

But it does challenge the idea that home prices are broadly falling or that a widespread housing market crash is underway.

For San Diego buyers and sellers, the bigger takeaway is this: don’t make a real estate decision based on a headline. Look at inventory, pricing, buyer demand, interest rates, and what’s actually happening in the specific San Diego communities you’re considering.

After 24 years in San Diego real estate, I know the market is never one-size-fits-all.

Want to know what the numbers are showing locally? Comment “SAN DIEGO MARKET” and I’ll share more of what I’m watching.

First-time buyers are making a comeback.

In May, first-time buyers accounted for 35% of all home purchases, up from 30% a year ago and the highest share since 2020.

That’s an interesting shift, especially in a market where affordability continues to be a challenge.

So how are more first-time buyers making it work?
One factor is choice.

More homes available for sale can give buyers more opportunities to find a property that fits their budget, rather than competing for the limited inventory we saw in previous years.

For first-time buyers in San Diego, that matters.

Buying your first home may look different than you originally imagined. It could mean considering a different neighborhood, looking at a different property type, adjusting your price range, or exploring financing strategies you haven’t considered before.

The important thing is not to count yourself out before you know what’s actually possible.

The San Diego housing market is changing, and opportunities don’t always look the way we expect them to.
If buying your first home in San Diego is on your radar, comment “FIRST HOME” and start the conversation.

📈 Forecasts for the Rest of the Year: What Buyers and Sellers Can Expect

If the first half of the year has left you feeling uncertain, you’re not alone. Higher mortgage rates, affordability challenges, and shifting market conditions have caused many buyers and sellers to pause and rethink their next move.

But the second half of the year could bring new opportunities. As inflation continues to stabilize and economic conditions shift, experts are watching closely for potential changes in mortgage rates, buyer activity, and overall market momentum.

While no one can predict the future, one thing remains true: understanding the market and having a strategy matters. Whether you’re planning to buy, sell, or simply want to know how current trends could impact your home’s value, staying informed is the first step.

The market may not change overnight, but even small shifts can create new opportunities.

Curious what the rest of the year could mean for your real estate goals? Let’s talk about the latest trends, forecasts, and what they could mean for you.

🏡 Homes Sold with an Agent Sell for More

Thinking about selling your home and wondering how to maximize your return? The right strategy can make a significant difference.

Homes represented by a real estate agent often sell for more because experienced agents understand local market trends, buyer behavior, pricing strategies, negotiation tactics, and how to position a property to attract the right buyers.

Selling a home is more than putting a sign in the yard. It’s about creating a plan that highlights your home’s value, reaches qualified buyers, and helps you navigate every step from preparation to closing.

If you’re considering selling, let’s create a strategy designed to help you achieve your goals and get the best possible outcome.

A little coffee stop at Labora Café, a San Diego gem built around the beauty of slow mornings and intentional moments.

Derived from the Latin word meaning “to work,” Labora Café celebrates the quiet rituals that fuel creativity: early mornings, late-night grinds, and the moments in between where ideas come to life.

Known for their delicate slow-dripped Vietnamese coffee and premium ceremonial-grade matcha, every drink is crafted with patience and purpose. Their matcha is made from first-harvest tea leaves grown in Kyoto and Kagoshima, creating a smooth, balanced flavor with natural sweetness and a beautifully creamy finish. 🍵

Beyond the coffee and matcha, it’s the atmosphere that makes places like Labora special: a space to slow down, connect, and enjoy the lifestyle that makes San Diego such a unique place to call home.

Exploring the best local spots is one of my favorite parts of living and working in San Diego. Looking for your own piece of this lifestyle? Let’s find the place that feels like home.

🏡 More Homes Are Going Under Contract Than the Last 2 Years

One of the biggest seller myths in today’s market is that buyers have disappeared. While headlines can create uncertainty, the data tells a different story.

More homes are going under contract compared to this time in previous years, proving that motivated buyers are still active and making moves.

Why? Because life doesn’t pause while people wait for the “perfect” market. Families grow, careers change, people relocate, and life milestones continue to happen. For many buyers, the need to move outweighs the desire to wait.

The opportunity is there for sellers who understand how to properly position their home. Strategic pricing, thoughtful marketing, and highlighting what makes your property stand out are more important than ever.

If you’ve been wondering whether buyers are still looking for homes, the answer is yes. The key is having the right strategy to attract them.

Thinking about selling? Let’s talk about what it would take to make your home stand out in today’s market.

🏡 Why 2026 Is Nothing Like 2008

A lot of buyers and sellers are pressing pause because they’re worried today’s market could look like the housing crash of 2008. But when you look beyond the headlines, the numbers tell a very different story.

In 2008, many homeowners had little to no equity built up, and mortgage debt was nearly equal to total homeowner equity. When financial challenges hit, many people had limited options, which contributed to the severity of the crisis.

Today’s market has a much stronger foundation. Homeowners have built significant equity over the past several years, giving many sellers more flexibility and financial stability. While every market has its challenges, today’s conditions are very different from what we experienced in 2008.

Real estate decisions should be based on facts, not fear. Whether you’re thinking about buying, selling, or simply want to understand your options, having the right information is key.

If uncertainty about the market has been keeping you on the sidelines, let’s talk about what opportunities may be available for you.

Should you sell first or buy your next home first?

The right answer isn’t the same for everyone. It depends on your equity, financial position, timeline and what’s happening in your local market.

After 24 years in real estate, I’ve learned that the strongest decisions aren’t based on guesswork. They’re built around a strategy that protects your time, your capital and your next move.

Because now more than ever, strategy matters.
