2025 California Housing Market Outlook
Housing Market Update
Housing Market Update
The California Association of Realtors projects that 2025 will bring a 10.5% jump in home sales, totaling an estimated 4.3 million transactions statewide. If you’ve been considering buying or selling, the coming year could be a favorable window. Mortgage rates are expected to average around 6.4%, and the median home price in California is forecast to rise by about 4.6%—following an anticipated 6.8% increase in 2024.
With more homes hitting the market, buyers will enjoy more choices, but properties that are priced right and show well are still expected to move quickly.
Across California—and here in the Bay Area—the market is trending toward a healthier balance between buyers and sellers, creating opportunities on both sides of the table.

FAQs:
Is now a good time to sell in the Bay Area?
Yes—if your goal is to sell in the next year, this could be a strong window.
Here’s why:
Buyer demand is still active. Even with shifting market conditions, well-priced, well-prepared homes are moving quickly.
Rates may drop later in the year or next year. If that happens, more sellers will list, creating more competition for you. Selling before inventory spikes can give you a stronger position.
Equity is high. Many Bay Area homeowners are sitting on significant gains from the last decade, making it a good time to maximize your return.
Every home and neighborhood is different, so the best approach is to review your specific property, timing, and goals. I can give you a data-driven market analysis so you know exactly what to expect and how to position your home for top dollar.
What could my home sell for?
Home values in the Bay Area depend on a variety of factors, from school districts and location to design and layout. Request a complimentary home valuation or reach out for a personalized market analysis.
