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

Year-over-year, Central San Diego’s rolling three-month view shows prices holding fairly steady, with the typical home value down only slightly even as the broader San Diego city median has slipped more noticeably. Inventory has inched up compared with a year ago, while homes sold and pending sales have posted modest gains, signaling steady demand rather than a surge.

In the latest three-month period ending in May 2026, buyers saw a median list price around the mid-$800,000s and a typical home value just under that level. Homes spent a median of 20 days on the market, and months of supply stood at 2.6, both pointing to continued seller leverage despite more options than a few years ago.

Seller confidence is evident, with about 39 percent of homes selling above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio near 99 percent in this rolling window. With Central San Diego slightly tighter than the wider city, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands these nuanced conditions and can guide them through each step of the process.
