Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory in Elmhurst has tightened over the past year, with active listings in this rolling three-month period down compared with last year even as new listings have risen more than 10 percent year over year. Contract activity is solid, as pending sales are up year over year and homes sold are only slightly below last year’s pace, helping keep the market in a seller’s territory with about 3.7 months of supply.
Pricing has been relatively steady in this rolling three-month view, with the typical home value up modestly, rising around 4 percent from a year ago. Sellers are gaining leverage, as nearly six in ten homes are selling above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio has climbed to almost 105 percent, indicating buyers are frequently bidding above asking.
Homes are also moving faster than a year ago, with median days on market down sharply compared with last September, while a sizable share go off the market within two weeks. Compared with the broader Oakland market, Elmhurst offers lower typical home values but a similarly firm seller dynamic, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands how to navigate these conditions effectively.

“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.”

“When Natasha says she will do something she gets it done, not tomorrow but right now. You won't find anyone that is more competent, knowledgeable, and responsive. 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!”

The DeLima Real Estate Group
“We began our home-buying journey with very little experience, and meeting Josh at an open house was truly a blessing. From our first interaction, he impressed us with his expertise, professionalism, and genuine willingness to help. He guided us through every step of the search and purchasing process with patience, care, and unwavering support. Josh’s exceptional knowledge of the Tri-Valley real estate market was invaluable. His understanding of the area’s neighborhoods helped us find the right location and make confident, well-informed decisions. He made what could have been an overwhelming experience—especially for first-time buyers—smooth and reassuring through his responsiveness, negotiating skills, helpful resources, and steady guidance. We were able to get our dream home at a very competitive price. More than an excellent realtor, Josh became a trusted friend who genuinely cared about our needs. We are deeply grateful for his dedication and for going above and beyond to help us find our home. We wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone buying a home. You will be in excellent hands.”

“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!”
Abio Properties
“Finding Laxmi Penupothula to sell our home at Ferry Lane in Fremont was an absolute blessing. We were going through a profound personal loss, making an already overwhelming process feel nearly impossible. Before meeting Laxmi, we interviewed several other agents, but they only seemed focused on their own bottom lines and self-interest. From the moment Laxmi walked into our home, everything changed. Laxmi treated us like family, with genuine compassion, patience, and care that no other agent offered. We had originally searched online for the 'Best Realtor near me,' and Laxmi’s name was everywhere,and now we understand why. She went far beyond expectations, handling every detail of the preparation, marketing, and negotiation. Laxmi did everything humanly possible to ensure our property achieved maximum value, ultimately selling our home for an astonishing $400,000 over asking price. Laxmi truly did what no other agent could have accomplished. We cannot thank Laxmi enough for walking beside us during such a difficult season and delivering life-changing results. She is without a doubt the best realtor in Fremont and the entire Bay Area. If you want an agent with unmatched heart who will fight for every last dollar of your home’s value, hire Laxmi! there is simply no one else.”

“As a first-time homebuyer, we were incredibly nervous about the whole process, but working with Ruby was an absolute dream. She was patient, answered all our questions, and never made us feel rushed. She truly understood what we were looking for and helped us find the perfect home. We couldn't have asked for a better overall experience!”
Kismet Real estate
“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”

“Gabriela was absolutely incredible throughout the entire process. She worked with us for over nine months until we found the perfect house and never made us feel rushed or pressured to settle. 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!”
