Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).

Monterey’s rolling three-month snapshot shows a market with steady activity and tightening options for shoppers. Active listings are up slightly about 5% from a year ago, yet months of supply has dropped dramatically over the same period, falling from 4.5 to 2.6 months, which reinforces a seller-leaning environment even as buyers have a bit more to choose from.

Pricing has been adjusting in a nuanced way. Typical home values are roughly 8% lower than a year ago, but the median list price is up about 4% year over year, and the average sale-to-list ratio is holding just under 99%, signaling that sellers are still achieving prices near their expectations.

Buyer and seller behavior together point to solid demand despite longer timelines. Homes sold have surged nearly 56% compared with last year’s rolling three-month period, even as median days on market have stretched from 32 to 40 days and roughly 29% of sales are now closing above list price. In this evolving backdrop, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an experienced local agent who understands Monterey’s current dynamics and can help them navigate their next move with confidence.

“I met Alicia at an open house, and she was friendly and approachable from the start. She took the time to show me around, answer my questions, and offer helpful suggestions on what to look for in a home. I appreciated her insight and how comfortable she made the whole experience. I’d definitely recommend reaching out to her!”

“I worked with Megan twice: first when I bought my home, and again six years later when I sold it. Both times she was outstanding. When I was buying, Megan asked a lot of thoughtful questions to understand what I actually needed and wanted, and she came with me to every showing. She paid attention to how I felt about each house we saw and based her recommendations on my reactions, which helped us zero in on the right place. She also suggested areas I hadn’t considered and was incredibly informative about the different builders and neighborhoods, which helped me feel confident in my decision. When a relocation meant I had to sell, I wasn’t going to be in the area to handle the details. Megan took care of everything for me, from start to finish. She arranged the inspection, the stager, and the cleaners, so I didn’t have to coordinate any of it from a distance. When an incident the day before closing required a repair, she handled that too. My house sold in just 6 days, and we received a little more than the asking price. I can’t recommend Megan highly enough. If you want a realtor who is knowledgeable, attentive, and truly looks out for you, she’s the one to call.”

“When I decided too sell my home I explored the idea of listing it myself since homes in my neighborhood tend to sell easily and fast. After meeting with 3 different realty groups I decided to go with Samples Realty Group not wanting to deal with everything involved in selling it myself. I made the right choice. Michelle and David were very professional and helpful from signing the listing agreement to passing on the keys to the buyer. I was already in process of driving to my new home across the country when the listing started. They were very helpful in dealing with any issues that came up and helped keep the place in top showing condition. We decided that staging the home was the best thing to do and it proved to be the case. Their stager was excellent and it really brightened the home and showed off it's possibilities. In the end, I sold in a week and at a very attractive price. I highly recommend you consider Michelle and David.”

We would absolutely recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a realtor who is professional and dependable.”

“Dylan is incredible! He is truly excellent at what he does. We still can’t believe we were able to buy our first home in our dream location, and it’s all thanks to him. He is so patient with his clients, and because he’s a handyman himself, his knowledge of home repairs was invaluable during our tours. He helped us feel confident in every decision we made. Rest assured, he is the best!”

“It was a pleasure to work with Jess Danielle throughout the entire selling and escrow process! Jess was always available for answering questions as well as providing solid business counsel on how to address the issues related to selling a home. Jess definitely went "above and beyond" to make the sale complete, all the while maintaining her demeanor with dedicated professionalism. I would highly recommend Jess to those who are seeking to sell their home!”

“Robin was a dream agent. She was very professional and attentive to every detail in the long process of updating and selling a Gilroy country property with an older (very vintage) home. We were so fortunate that she was able to help us for over a year with invaluable advice, ideas, and referrals for a number of upgrades. Selling a parent’s property was an emotional undertaking and Robin was always patient and understanding during the many ups and downs of the process. We really enjoyed working with Robin and she earned every penny of her commission.”

“ConnieJo was the hardest working and most savvy agent I have ever heard of! With all of us living out of town, her hands on approach was necessary. She directed and handled extensive work on the house, the photos and marketing. The result was a quick sale above asking price.”

“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.”

“Kim was outstanding. She is extremely professional yet very personable. She went out of her way to ensure our home sold, going out of her way to ensure it closed on time. She immediately set out a plan that actually got us over the asking price. I will always be grateful for her. We have another house to sell, and Kim will be our realtor. We have bought and sold several houses. This was the best experience ever. Thank you, Kim!”
