Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Alameda County real estate market, updated for March 2026. *
The typical home value in Alameda County is projected to be $920,000 for the month of February. January’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the county to be $930,000—down 16.22% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, state-level data pegged home values at $780,100 in California for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $773,800 in February.
Alameda County had 993 new listings and 569 listings that went under contract in January, increasing the area’s total available inventory to 1,310—up 24.29% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further increased in February.
Of those 1,310 active listings, 15.88% reduced their price in the month of January. The median listing price for homes in Alameda County grew 5.86% from December to January, bringing the current median listing price to $949,000. Based on projected data for February, listing prices may continue to grow.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract fell year-over-year. In January 2026, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 43 days, compared to 49 days in January 2025. In recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be decreasing. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this February.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Alameda County offers residents a vibrant mix of diverse communities, expansive parks and shoreline recreation, strong schools and healthcare, thriving local economies, and easy access to transportation and cultural amenities that together foster opportunity and community.
Alameda County spans the east side of the San Francisco Bay, combining major cities like Oakland, Berkeley, and Fremont with smaller communities such as Alameda, Hayward, and Dublin. Residents benefit from extensive transit, including BART and AC Transit, that connects neighborhoods to San Francisco and Silicon Valley job centers, while I‑580 and I‑880 provide direct freeway access.
Daily life is shaped by walkable districts, diverse food scenes, and abundant green space. Oakland’s waterfront at Jack London Square offers dining, ferries, and events, while the Oakland Museum of California and Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive anchor a strong arts and culture scene. Families appreciate top educational institutions like UC Berkeley and a mix of public and private schools across Berkeley and Pleasanton.
Outdoor access is a major draw. The East Bay Regional Park District maintains miles of trails in the Oakland Hills, around Lake Chabot, and throughout Fremont, with views across the bay and space for hiking, biking, and family outings.
Given the county’s varied housing stock, from historic bungalows in Alameda County to contemporary condos and suburban neighborhoods, a local real estate expert is essential. Agent Pronto connects buyers and sellers with agents who understand each micro‑market, helping streamline decisions and reduce stress at every step.

“Angelina Rantissi was very professional and knowledgeable. She guided me through the whole process seamlesly. She said at the very beginning that she was available at any time and not to hesitate to call. This was very important to me, as I live in Maryland and the 3 hour time difference could have been problematic. She helped me find handymen and movers. I highly recommend her. Thank you Angelina !”
“We could not have an more experience person selling the house”
“Gina Bocage is an outstanding realtor! She is knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cares about her clients. She made the entire buying/selling process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch real estate professional.”
“Santiago, went above and beyond with assisting with our home purchase. He was always in contact, and was always striving to help get us a better deal! Santiago made this process of home buying stress free. Strongly recommend that people get Santiago as their real estate agent!”
“Jim was the first realtor we worked with who actually felt like he was on OUR team - he is very experienced, reliable and the right amount of proactive. Ultimately, Jim helped us buy our very favorite house we saw - and helped us actually get a deal and not overpay, which was important to us (and very hard to do in the bay area!). Throughout the process, Jim also proactively sent us listings which were a great match for what we were looking for. In terms of actually getting the transaction done, Jim is clearly extremely experienced and was very helpful and professional at every step. He is also hyper responsive and reliable, which we really appreciated, and even helped us close over the holidays. Thank you Jim!”
“We worked with Payal to purchase our home in the Bay Area and our experience was fantastic. Payal is a great communicator and was always quick to respond to texts, phone calls, and emails for any questions we had. Although we were already familiar with the home purchase process, she was always available to answer any questions we had. She helped us view several homes until we found the perfect one for us and was always available when we needed her. She did a great job negotiating on our behalf during the entire purchase process and we always felt she had our back. Overall we really enjoyed working with her and would recommend her to all our friends, family, and neighbors! Thanks Payal!”
“I was completely lost, no idea how or what to do, Jimmy walked me through all of it and I am completly satisfied with the outcome”
“We recently purchased a home witht he help of Darrin DeSilva and his team of professionals and I couldnt be happier with the entire experience. From start to finsih, they were professional, attentive and truly ommitted to helping finf the right home. Him and his team (Audry) communicated clearly, answered every question, and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. Their knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and genuine care for their clients really stand out. Thanks to their guidance , we were able to find a home that fit our needs perfectly. I'm greateful for their hard work and highly recomend DeSilva realty to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”
“I have to say from our first meeting I found Linda to be very pleasant, proffessioal and informative. This was reasuring to me as this was the first experience my wife and I have had with the process of buying a home. I was QUITE NERVOUS about buying a home for the first time, (and it did not help that I don't trust most people) but I have to say that Linda put me at ease with her explanation of the process, and what to look for when it comes to perchasing a home. We let her know what we were looking for, what we could afford and what area we wanted to live in. Linda MORE than met all of our expectation. I would HIGHLY recommend Linda to anyone looking for a pleasant and positive experience when it comes to buying a home!”
“We are so grateful to have had Amy Thomas as our realtor along with Alex Pallios our loan officer. Amy from the beginning was very friendly, patient, and compassionate. She worked extremely hard to get us that dream home that we have always wanted. She fought tooth and nail to counter our offers & she won!! We were so grateful for an awesome experience throughout this whole home experience process. This was a great experience and we will be sure to refer to our friends and family. They truly made the process go smooth and helped us move out in just a little over 30 days!”
“Travis went above and beyond with helping me find my home. He was so helpful and patience with me . Never felt pressured to buy a home. He guided me and helped me to look for a nice area, specially because I'm not familiar with Manteca neighborhoods. I'm so glad I found him and also Miss Patino did an amazing job too.”
“Our home was on the market for over a year in a tough location, during an unfavorable market, and amid a complicated family situation. Justin Bonney stepped in after another agent left us hanging, untangled the mess, and guided us through every step with professionalism, honesty, and constant communication. He is a man of character and expertise. Even in one of the most challenging cases, Justin never gave up on us and got us to the finish line. He went above and beyond, handling the behind-the-scenes work we’ll never forget. We not only found our go-to agent but also gained a trusted friend. Highly recommend Justin to anyone who needs someone reliable, resourceful, and committed when it matters most.”
“Phat is attentive beyond the call of duty. He was always transparent and clear in his guidance. Highly recommended!!”
“At our first meeting Gautam had an accurate understanding of my neighborhood and it's surroundings. After walking through the house and the yards he gave a clear assessment of our home's value and the reasons why. He also had an idea of what types of buyers would likely show interest, and how to market our home to them. He had an excellent advertising package in mind. One day after being on the market we received a full-price offer. It fell through, but in line were two more full-price offers. The second potential buyer became the buyer. There were three issues with the property that arose and he handled them all. That was especially helpful as we were already out-of-state. The house sold without further issues. Gotham was easy to work with, and his expertise gave me confidence that things would be well-handled. I recommend Gautam highly, and would recommend him to family and friends.”
“Parm is very efficient and professional. She helped us to sell the house in Sacramento. We are very satisfied and highly recommend her.”
“We were able to get the house we wanted within our budget, all thanks to Pillar Tobias. She was really helpful in trying multiple ways to get our loan approved. It was a bit rough because we had a lot of issues but her dedication and persistence made us pull through. Thank you so much for all your efforts, and for not giving up even when we already did.”
“Working with Sarah was an absolute pleasure. She was 150% professional and had her clients best interest at heart, she didn't rush anything and her priority was getting her client the best deal possible. We have our realtor for life, we love her, the end!”
“Mr. Holland was very goal oriented and practical. He allowed us to choose amongst three plans and provided some of the best crews to complete that plan. He wasn't a hands-off agent but actually got his hands dirty to help out. It shows he enjoys what he does and gives his best. Anyone who works with him would not be disappointed. Thrilled he took us on.”
“Several agents reached out to us with basic information, but Jane Cresswell's initial contact was a step above all the others. She'd done some research and already had some helpful information about our property. Outstanding from the outset and brilliant throughout.”
“Matt was very professional and personable. He was attentive to all my questions and took care of the "little things" diligently. He was also a great resource for the technicalities of the moving process. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell or buy.”
