Compared with a year ago, Hayes home values have pulled back sharply on a rolling three-month basis, with the typical home value down more than 40 percent. Even with that decline, values here still trail the broader San Jose market, where the median sale price is notably higher and has seen only a modest year-over-year dip.
Inventory conditions have shifted but remain tight in context. Months of supply in Hayes has more than doubled over the past year, yet at around one and a half months it still reflects a pronounced seller’s market and sits below the 2.3 months seen across San Jose.
Looking at the latest rolling three-month period through September 2026, homes in Hayes are still selling quickly, with a median of just over two weeks on the market and nearly half closing above their list price. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these changing conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to match with a local agent who understands the Hayes market in detail.

“My husband and I relocated from Southern California. We really lucked out when we found Jennifer Gates! She was very polite, friendly, and extremely professional. Her knowledge of the area and her great & timely communication skills were truly assets. I always felt very important. She went above and beyond to help us acquire our dream home overlooking the ocean. Jennifer made us feel like a valued client. I highly recommend her as a realtor.”
“Jorge and Iris made buying my property a smooth and easy experience from start to finish. They were accommodating, communicative, and always prompt in responding to my questions. Both were professional while also being personable and easy to work with. They handled the inspection and negotiations with care, and everything went smoothly without any issues. I’m very happy with the property and would highly recommend Jorge and Iris to anyone looking to buy a home!”
“Payal is a good person, very supportive and communicative. She always makes time to interact and showed me many places before I found "the one", and I wouldn't have found it without her. She is knowledgeable and trustworthy.”
“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.”
“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.”
“We interviewed seven agents before selecting Jim Tierney, and we’re very glad we chose him. His experience, strong knowledge of the local market, and reasonable commission stood out from the beginning. Jim and his team were excellent to work with and made the entire process feel very smooth and well organized. He was responsive, practical, and kept us well informed from preparation through closing. We were very happy with both his service and the final result and would highly recommend him.”
“We had a wonderful experience working with Ron Laserna! He truly listened to what we wanted, was always quick to respond, and gave us honest, knowledgeable advice throughout the process. Thanks to his hard work, we found our dream home. We highly recommend Ron to anyone buying or selling a home!”
“Had a really great experience working with Gurjeet. As home buyers, we were pretty nervous about the crazy market, but he made the whole process so much easier. We just closed on our place and he was awesome from start to finish. He really knows the market inside out and gave us straight advice without being pushy at all. Super responsive whenever we had questions. Highly recommend him!”
“We had a wonderful experience working with Adan to buy our home in the Bay Area. Right from the beginning, it was clear that he had our back and was genuinely committed to representing us. As first-time buyers, we had a lot of questions, but Adan answered every single question with patience, kindness, and incredible knowledge. He made the showing process fun and stress-free, and his communication was always seamless. Adan is an amazing realtor, and we are so grateful for his support. We would recommend him in a heartbeat!”
“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!”
“Matt was excellent his greatest attribute is that he listened to our needs and wants and accommodated us in delivering the best service possible. We quickly sold our home and were able to move on to the next step in our home ownership journey. We would recommend Matt to anybody looking for an agent who is attentive and puts the customer first through the entire process.”
“She is a strategic planner, and can get the job done under challenging circumstances. She was our seller agent and sold our house at a price beyond our expectations with multiple offers. We can’t ask for more. We highly recommend Mattie to everyone who wants to buy or sell their house”
“I had a great experience working with Eric while selling my home. He was incredibly patient, thorough, and always took the time to explain everything and answer all of my questions. He made what could have been a stressful process feel simple and manageable from start to finish. I really appreciated his professionalism, communication, and guidance throughout the entire process. I’m grateful for all of his help and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. I look forward to working with him again when it’s time for us to purchase our next home! Seriously 10/10 experience!”
“I am so grateful for Danny Burgess, for helping me with the purchase of my first home. From the very beginning, he was incredibly helpful, patient, and knowledgeable. He made the entire process easy to understand and was always available to answer any questions and guide me through each step. Buying my first home felt like a big and sometimes overwhelming experience, but Danny made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the journey. His professionalism, dedication, and genuine care made such a difference. Thank you, Danny, for helping make my dream of owning a home a reality! I truly appreciate everything you've done for me and would highly recommend you to anyone looking to buy a home.”
“I had such an amazing experience working with Nicole. She truly went above and beyond every step of the way and made the entire process so much easier and less stressful. From the very beginning, she was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely caring. She always made me and my kids feel like a priority and was willing to do whatever it took to help us reach our goals both as a buyer and a seller. Her attention to detail, and commitment was truly exceptional. Beyond being an outstanding real estate agent, I always felt we were in good hands and could trust Nicole completely.

She was responsive (to my many many questions), knowledgeable, and stayed on top of every detail to help us successfully close in just 8 days! We really appreciated the clear communication and guidance throughout the process. Everything moved quickly without ever feeling chaotic or rushed. We would absolutely recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a realtor who is professional and dependable.”
“Alfredo did an outstanding job assisting me with the sale of my townhouse. He was very quick in helping get the property ready for showings and helped keep the entire process stress free thanks to his knowledge and responsiveness throughout. I definitely will not hesitate to use Alfredo again or to recommend him to my family and friends.”
“Todd is a rockstar agent- a master of his craft. I sold my house recently- the second time I’ve worked with him. Seamless experience listing, staging, and selling. He has great negotiation advise, and working with him felt like we were a team.”
“Five stars! We recently bought a home in San Jose, and James Do was phenomenal to work with. The home-buying process can be stressful, but his communication skills, market knowledge, and dedication made everything incredibly smooth for us. What stood out the most was how he was able to stand in our shoes, truly understand our wants, and never pressured us into a decision. We are so happy with our new home, highly recommend!”
“Tony Ngai has been our family’s trusted real estate agent for a long time, guiding us through multiple home purchases and sales across Santa Clara and most recently in San Jose. Tony is the absolute gold standard of professionalism; he treats everyone with the utmost respect and brings exceptional market knowledge and sharp negotiation skills to the table. He does deep research into local communities and stays entirely up-to-date on market trends. His communication style is flawless—he is always available via phone, text, or email whenever you need him. Most recently, Tony helped my elderly parents sell their home. His endless patience and care were remarkable. He even went above and beyond by attending the final signing at the escrow office in person just to provide an extra pair of eyes and ensure any last-minute questions were answered. Having his presence there brought our family immense comfort. If you want a knowledgeable, dedicated, and deeply respectful agent who goes above and beyond, we highly recommend Tony!”
