North County Investors.....here is your February 2026 North County market signals:

Average YoY appreciation across 10 zip codes: +11.5%
Average months of supply: 2.1 months
Inventory change year-over-year: –38%
Areas appreciating: 7 out of 10

The strongest momentum: Carlsbad 92011 (+32.3% YoY, 1.5 mo supply, 14 DOM). The interesting contrarian play: Carlsbad 92009 (–14.3% YoY but only 1.5 mo supply and 16 DOM — the price dip may not last).

I built an interactive dashboard where you can sort all 10 areas by appreciation rate, supply tightness, or price — with investor-focused context on every metric.

If you own a home in North County, your equity likely grew this year. Here's the February snapshot:

7 out of 10 neighborhoods saw price gains. Carlsbad 92011 jumped 32%. Encinitas hit $2.46M. Escondido crossed $1.19M. And inventory dropped 30–60% across the board.

The average months of supply right now is under 2 months. That's deep seller's market territory.

But here's the thing — even in this market, overpriced homes are sitting. Del Mar averaged 88 days on market. Pricing strategy still matters.

Thinking about buying in North County? Here's what February actually looked like across 10 neighborhoods.

Most areas have less than 2 months of inventory right now — that means sellers have the upper hand and well-priced homes are moving fast. But not everywhere is the same. A few pockets are softening, and that's where the opportunity is.

Carlsbad 92009, Solana Beach, and Cardiff all saw price dips this month while the rest of the market climbed. If you're looking for less competition, start there.

I built an interactive tool that lets you compare all 10 areas side by side — prices, competition levels, days on market — and explains what every number means in plain English.
