Commercial Market Pulse: Industrial 🏭

Sacramento's industrial vacancy sat at 6.5% in Q2 2026 — up slightly from 5.7% a year ago, but holding roughly steady quarter-over-quarter as the market absorbs recent new construction. Total availability (including sublease space) is running closer to 10.2%, meaning tenants have more room to negotiate than they did a year or two ago.

For owners and investors, that's a market that's stabilizing rather than overheating — steady leasing activity, slowing new supply, and a region that still serves as a key distribution hub for Northern California.

Thinking about leasing, buying, or repositioning industrial space in the Sacramento region? Let's talk strategy. Send a DM or call (916) 619-9386.

New month, new numbers 📊 Here's what's actually happening in the Sacramento region right now — as of today, September 1, 2026:

🏡 The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate is sitting around 6.6%–6.7% today, ticking up slightly this week amid global economic headlines — still in the same band we've seen most of the summer
🏡 Sacramento home prices are holding close to flat year-over-year, with homes typically going pending in about 2.5–3 weeks
🏡 Elk Grove's median sale price sits in the mid-$600Ks, down modestly from a year ago
🏡 Statewide, California home sales are still running about 1.8% ahead of last year's pace through July, even as prices ease off their spring peak

None of this is locked in — mortgage rates especially can move day to day. If you want the real, current number for your specific scenario, DM me "RATE" and I'll connect you with my lending partner for a same-day quote.

Sacramento summers don't end at Labor Day. September regularly brings 100-degree days, and the wear-and-tear on your home is real. A little maintenance now protects your home and your property value heading into the rest of the year. ☀️🏡

Here are 6 late-summer maintenance moves every Sacramento homeowner should make in the next few weeks:

1️⃣ AC Tune-Up — Service your system before the last heatwave hits. Waiting for it to fail during a 105-degree week is expensive and miserable.
2️⃣ Refresh Landscaping — Restore stressed lawn patches, refresh mulch beds, and deadhead sun-scorched plants. A tired yard ages your home fast.
3️⃣ Deep Clean Outdoor Spaces — Pressure wash patios, decks, and outdoor furniture after a full summer of BBQs and pool days.
4️⃣ Adjust Irrigation — Nights are cooler but days are still hot. Rebalance timers, check for leaks, and fix broken heads before you waste water and stress plants.
5️⃣ Inspect the Exterior — Look for peeling paint, cracked caulk, sun-damaged trim, and warped fascia. Catch it now, before winter compounds it.
6️⃣ Clear Gutters Early — Get ahead of fall debris while everything's still dry and easy. Future you will thank you.

A well-maintained Sacramento home holds its value better whether you're planning to sell soon or stay for years. Need a recommendation for a trusted local HVAC tech, landscaper, or handyman? Send me a message.

Still house hunting with the kids already back in school? You're not behind — you're right on time. Fall is quietly one of the best buying windows in Sacramento, and here's how to make the search work around the school-year routine. 🏡📚

Five ways to keep the search low-stress for the whole family:

🕓 Tour on weekends and early evenings. Save weekday afternoons for homework and activities. Most homes are available for showings 4–6pm or Saturday mornings — those windows keep your normal schedule intact.

📱 Use virtual tours to pre-screen. Before you drag the family to five houses, watch the video walkthroughs. You'll cut your in-person list in half and save the whole weekend.

🎒 Keep the kids' routine untouched. Don't pull them out of activities or shuffle carpools during the search. A stable school-year rhythm makes the future move feel like an adventure, not chaos.

🗓️ Aim for a closing that lines up with a school break. Fall break, Thanksgiving week, or the winter holiday give you a clean window to move without missing school days. Start now and you'll have time to hit one of those.

🏡 When you find the one, move fast. Fall inventory is elevated, but well-priced homes in family neighborhoods still go quickly. Have your pre-approval, agent, and family aligned so you can act when the right home shows up.

The fall market rewards prepared buyers. Let's map out your search timeline together.

Sacramento summers are beautiful — and they come with real fire risk. Whether you live in Galt, Wilton, Rancho Murieta, or anywhere in between, a little preparation now goes a long way. 🔥🏡

Here are 6 simple steps every Sacramento-area homeowner should take before fire season peaks:

1️⃣ Create defensible space — maintain 30 feet of clearance around your home.
2️⃣ Clear and clean — remove dry leaves, pine needles, and other flammable debris.
3️⃣ Trim and tend — keep trees and shrubs pruned and away from your roof.
4️⃣ Harden your home — use fire-resistant materials where it matters most (roofs, vents, siding).
5️⃣ Check and maintain — inspect vents, gutters, and roofs before fire season peaks.
6️⃣ Have a plan — prepare an evacuation plan and go bag for your household.

Beyond peace of mind, a well-maintained, fire-hardened home holds its value better and is easier to insure — two things that matter more every year in California.

Need recommendations for a local defensible space contractor or a roofer who specializes in fire-resistant materials? Send me a message.

There's a reason Elk Grove keeps landing on "best places to live" lists — and it's not just the schools. 🌳🏡

Twenty years ago, Elk Grove was a small farming community. Today it's one of Sacramento County's largest cities, and the growth has been intentional. Master-planned neighborhoods, mature landscaping, active parks, and a real sense of community make it one of the most family-friendly places in the region.

What buyers love about Elk Grove:

🏫 Elk Grove Unified School District — one of the largest and most diverse districts in California, with strong programs across grade levels
🌳 Neighborhood design that actually works — sidewalks, bike paths, walkable parks, and homes built around community rather than just square footage
🥬 A genuine local scene — the Elk Grove Farmers Market, Old Town restaurants and shops, and community events year-round
🛣️ Easy commute access — Highway 99 gets you to Downtown Sacramento in ~20 minutes and to the Bay Area for weekend trips
🏡 A range of housing options — from established resale homes in Laguna and Sheldon to newer master-planned communities in Elk Grove East

Elk Grove homes currently run in the $630K–$690K range for standard single-family — a premium over neighboring markets, but one families consistently say pays off.

Heading into the back half of summer, the Sacramento real estate market is telling a clearer story than it has all year. 🏡

As of early August 2026, here is where we stand:

🏠 Median sale price: $585K (holding steady)
⏳ Median days on market: 33 days
📈 Inventory: 2.8 months (up from 2.1 in July)

The headline everyone is missing? 33.9% of homes are still selling within two weeks. In a market with rising inventory, that gap between the well-priced homes and the ones sitting is only getting wider.

For buyers, this means real choice — more homes to tour, more time to negotiate, and sellers increasingly willing to cover closing costs and concessions. For sellers, it means pricing accurately from day one is the entire ball game.

Fall is historically Sacramento's strongest closing season for prepared buyers and sellers. If you're thinking about a move before year-end, now is the time to strategize.

Thinking about selling in Sacramento? Here's the question I hear most before we ever talk price:

"How much is this actually going to cost me?"

The honest answer: selling a home in Sacramento typically costs 6% to 10% of the sale price when you add it all up — commissions, escrow and title fees, transfer taxes, and buyer concessions. On a home at the current Sacramento median (~$585K), that's roughly $35K to $58K in total costs.

But the range is wide for a reason. Preparation, pricing strategy, and how you structure the listing from day one make a real difference in what you actually net at close.

I just published a full 2026 breakdown that walks through every line item — including what's changed since the 2024 NAR commission settlement, what buyer concessions look like in the current market, and a real example on a $585K home.

The days of throwing a high price on a house and waiting for a bidding war are over. We are in a stabilizing market, and the market rewards smart pricing. 📉🏡

With Sacramento inventory rising to 2.1 months, buyers have more options than they did last year. If you overprice your home today, it will sit. And the longer a home sits, the lower the final offer usually is.

Here is the winning seller strategy for Summer 2026:
✅ Price it right from day one: Look at recent closed comps, not aspirational active listings.
✅ Prep matters: Clean, staged, move-in ready homes are the ones getting the offers.
✅ Be patient: The average days on market is 31 days. A home taking 3-4 weeks to sell is normal and healthy.

Want to know the exact data-driven price your home would list for today? Let's run a comparative market analysis.
