The San Carlos Real Estate Week In Review: 6/6/09.

San Carlos Inventory Analysis

The big story this week?  Home sales, and a lack of new inventory.  If you’ve been watching the trend for the past few weeks, quite a few houses have gone pending or have closed escrow.  But there hasn’t been the equivalent influx of new homes for sale — see below for the disparity in numbers for just this week.  Consequently, the inventory has been steadily dropping from a high of over 70 a few weeks ago to only 55 today.   The result?  Lots of competitive bidding, and homes going pending quickly (see the Pending Sales section below.)   Here’s a snapshot of the San Carlos market, as of 6/6. The previous week’s stats are in parentheses:
