📊 Greater Sacramento Market — Month in Review (April 27 → May 26)

A lot can shift in 30 days. Here's what the numbers are telling us across four of our most active submarkets. 👇

🏡 FOLSOM
Active listings climbed from 117 → 131 (+12%). Pending sales held steady at 73. Solds dipped from 75 → 70 over the last 30 days.

🏔️ EL DORADO HILLS
Active inventory jumped from 182 → 198 (+9%). Pendings surged from 64 → 76 (+19%). Solds pulled back from 74 → 57.

🌲 CAMERON PARK & SHINGLE SPRINGS
Active listings ticked up from 71 → 75. Pendings shot up from 21 → 30 (+43%). Solds dropped from 27 → 16.

🏘️ RANCHO CORDOVA
Active listings eased from 162 → 153 (−6%). Pendings held nearly flat at 87 → 88. Solds declined from 68 → 54.

🟠 FOR SELLERS: Inventory is growing across most markets, which means your window to list with less competition is narrowing. The good news? Pending sales are rising in 3 of 4 submarkets — buyers are still motivated and ready to move. Pricing right now is everything. Let's talk strategy before the market shifts further.

🔵 FOR BUYERS: More active listings = more options. And with sold counts pulling back, there's slightly less pressure than we saw a month ago. If you've been waiting for your moment, this may be it — especially in Cameron Park/Shingle Springs and El Dorado Hills, where pendings are surging and competition is quietly heating back up.

The Conversation Nobody Wants to Have (But Everyone Needs)
We talk a lot about buying homes, investments and building equity, but we rarely talk about how to protect the people we leave it to. Wednesday night, we changed that. 🛡️🏡

I’ll be honest: we invited everyone, but we totally get why our group was small and intimate. Let's face it...most people would rather do literally anything else than spend an evening discussing their own demise. But because the group was small, we had a safe, quiet space to get into the heart of why this matters.

We weren't just talking about paperwork; we were talking about kindness. Estate planning isn’t really for you—it’s for your family. It’s about making sure that when they’re already dealing with the weight of losing you, they aren't also fighting a legal battle or stuck in a painful probate process.

A massive thank you to Alyssa Chow for being such a wealth of knowledge and fun to listen to. She took the complex (and intimidating) world of living trusts and made it feel completely manageable.

To those who joined us: thank you for showing up for your heirs and your legacy. To those who missed it: I get it, it's a heavy topic! But it’s a conversation worth having.

We’ll definitely be doing this again. 💼🥂

Your real estate equity is likely your largest financial asset. Treating its management like a weekend hobby is a massive financial liability. 📉

We do not rely on hope, automated internet algorithms, or emotional attachments to buy and sell houses. We rely on market mechanics, hyper-local data, and calculated negotiations. You need a team that treats your equity like the business asset it is.

When you are ready to engineer a bulletproof strategy for your next move, let’s get to work.

I’ll say this one more time for the people in the back…

Do not. I repeat: DO NOT move your family to El Dorado Hills unless you’re prepared to deal with these 5 “problems” ⬇️🛑

1️⃣ Your kids suddenly want to be outside… all the time
Fresh air. Trails. Parks. Safe neighborhoods.
Your Wi-Fi may get jealous.

2️⃣ Your commute gets suspiciously peaceful
Rolling hills. Views. Less traffic rage.
You’ll miss your podcast because the drive is… enjoyable.

3️⃣ Your standards for ‘normal’ neighborhoods get ruined
Greenbelts, pools, walking trails, community events.
Other places will feel… unfinished.

4️⃣ Your weekends fill up fast
Town Center dinners. Kids’ sports. Wine nights.
You’ll need a calendar just to relax.

5️⃣ You start asking dangerous questions like
“Why didn’t we do this sooner?”
And “Should we have bought bigger?”

El Dorado Hills has a funny way of quietly upgrading your lifestyle, better schools, space to breathe, trail systems, strong community pride, and access to both nature and Sacramento conveniences. Once you experience it, it’s hard to unsee.

If you’re considering relocating to the Sacramento area in 2026, El Dorado Hills is one of the neighborhoods people research the most, and often misunderstand the most. There’s a big difference between the highlight reel and what daily life actually feels like.

That’s why we put together our 2026 Sacramento Relocation Guide, with honest insights on El Dorado Hills, Folsom, and other top neighborhoods, including what works, what doesn’t, and who each area is really best for.

👇 Comment “GUIDE” and we’ll send it over.

As we reflect on 2025, we’re filled with gratitude for every client, family, and individual who trusted us with one of life’s biggest decisions. This past year was about far more than real estate—it was about relationships, life transitions, and guiding our clients through meaningful moments.

From first-time buyers and growing families to downsizers, relocations, and complex situations, we were honored to walk alongside so many of you throughout the year. Every sold sign represents a story, a goal achieved, and a new chapter begun.

2025 required patience, strategy, and thoughtful planning—and together, we navigated it successfully.

Thank you for your trust, your referrals, and your continued support. We are incredibly grateful for our community in El Dorado Hills, Folsom, and the Greater Sacramento area.

✨ Wishing you a wonderful, healthy, and happy 2026 ahead. We look forward to what’s next.

🍂 Why Thanksgiving Week Is a Smart Time to Buy or Sell 🏡

The market naturally slows down during the holiday week — and that creates real advantages. With fewer buyers shopping, serious buyers have less competition and more negotiating power. Motivated sellers also tend to be more flexible, making credits or rate buydowns easier to secure.

For sellers, lower inventory means your home gets more attention from intentional, ready-to-move buyers. And if you buy before December 31, your first mortgage payment won’t be due until next year — a major financial perk.
