Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory in Berkeley has inched up compared with last year, with active listings rising about 3 percent while months of supply has fallen nearly 39 percent in the rolling three-month view through September 2026. At the same time, homes sold and pending sales are each up about 20 percent year over year, signaling strong contract activity even as available options remain relatively tight.
Pricing is showing modest upward pressure over the past year, with the typical home value up less than 1 percent and the median list price up just over 3 percent. Buyers still face intense competition, as roughly 76 percent of recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio has climbed more than 6 percent from a year ago.
Speed has held steady, with the median home spending about 15 days on the market, which is slightly faster than a year earlier. With more homes changing hands, many still selling quickly, and prices edging higher, both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate professional to help them navigate the Berkeley market and negotiate effectively.

Berkeley combines a major university town with practical, everyday livability. Located on the east side of the Bay, it offers quick access to San Francisco via BART and convenient connections north and south along the I‑80 corridor. Neighborhoods range from walkable flats near Downtown Berkeley to hillside streets with sweeping bay views.

“Loved working with Mauricio as a first-time home buyer! I had many questions as the entire process was unfamiliar to me. Mauricio was able to summarize many documents for me and even give me his own opinions on the homes. He is friendly, very responsive, attentive, and reliable. He made me feel like I was his only client even though I know he has more! During my contract period, I switched lenders spontaneously and he was able to navigate the changes smoothly. I never felt like my questions were too many or burdensome for him. I hope I will be able to work with him again someday!”

“Jessie did very good job at showing us the house around San Francisco and San Mateo County. She gave us very professional and honest advice on the home we were looking for. She went through the inspection, pointed out what we need to consider, and helped us draft a strong offer to secure our current home. Thanks to her, we have our first lovely home. Even after securing our home, Jessie went the extra mile to ensure we would be able to comfortably settle in. We would highly recommend Jessie to any homebuyers who need help in Bay Area.”

“Alonya was recommended by a trusted friend, and exceeded even that strong recommendation. She listened closely to what I wanted, and identified a hidden gem that I ended up purchasing. She helped with a lot of tricky steps and connected me with great contractors. Because I was living hundreds of miles away from the house I bought and moved in to, she met many of my neighbors before me, and facilitated the great relationships I have with them now. I could not be happier.”

Weekends, weekdays, after normal hours, she is always working for you. Her assistance with inspections, and repairs was invaluable. I could go on for pages detailing all the ways she helped us sell my sister's house. My family was so fortunate to find her. Before you choose an agent make sure you speak with her. You won't regret it!”

“I give Linnette and her team the highest recommendation possible. If you miss out on working with her, you're making a mistake. I originally met her when buying my home in North Oakand 10 years ago, and she was excellent. During Covid, I left the area, and in 2026 I made the decision to sell. It was a no-brainer to go back to Linnette. I am across the country, and she managed the entire process with no hassle for me. Took care of specs, comps, price modeling, recommended renovations, affordable contractor, etc. She and her team were in great touch throughout. I trusted her opinions, and she got me a wild number of bids and an incredible purchase price. Everything went off without a hitch. I would definitely work with her again. Thanks, Team Linnette!”

She made sure everything we needed was up to par, advocated for us every step of the way, and ultimately helped us find the perfect investment property. We are so grateful for her patience, dedication, and expertise. We truly couldn’t have done it without her!”

“When I was interested in selling my home, I started reading reviews of realtors. Nick Flageollet reviews were very positive. After speaking with him I found him to be very responsive, if Nick didn’t answer my phone calls he would return my calls soon afterwards. He would provide answers to all my questions During the selling process of my first home a buyers agent asked me how I met Nick, the buyers agent expressed all positive remarks about Nick. Nick was very patient with me due to my delay on getting my homes ready for him to put onto the market. When I was ready to sell Nick immediately went into action. He provided a great marketing strategy and kept me informed during the whole process I was so impressed with Nick’s real estate skills i contacted him for selling my second home that sold in 12 days with an offer more than listing price”
