The San Diego housing market steadied in September, with home sales holding firm while housing inventory levels remained elevated.

San Diego home Buyers showed fresh momentum as more homes moved under contract, even as interest rates continue to fluctuate. Sellers are tracking this shift closely, knowing that price and presentation still drive results.

Detached home sales rose 5.1 percent year-over-year in September 2025 compared to last year in September 2024. Attached home sales, including condos and townhomes, increased 8.1 percent over the same period. Homes continued to take longer to sell, with detached properties averaging 20.6 percent longer days on market year-over-year and attached homes up 19.4 percent.

September 2025 San Diego Housing Market Update

San Diego home prices moved in opposite directions across property types in September. The median sale price for detached homes declined 2.8 percent year-over-year to $1,020,500, reflecting added inventory and longer marketing times for detached properties.

Attached homes, including condos and townhomes, saw prices move higher, with the median rising 3.2 percent to $671,500, supported by steady demand at lower price points.

Growing inventory continued to shape the fall market. Detached home listings increased 19.2 percent compared to last year, while attached inventory climbed 45.2 percent year-over-year. This expanded supply gives Buyers more room to evaluate options and negotiate, while Sellers are adjusting price strategies as days on market stretch and competition increases across many neighborhoods.
