Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Year over year, Sherman Oaks shows mixed pricing trends in this rolling three-month view, with the typical home value down notably while the median list price has jumped more than 25 percent. Compared with the broader San Jose market, local home values are lower, yet sellers here are still achieving an average sale-to-list ratio just over 102 percent, indicating buyers are paying slightly above asking on many deals.
Inventory patterns have shifted as active listings are down about one-fifth from a year ago and new listings are also slightly lower. Even with fewer homes on the market, months of supply has dropped sharply compared with last year, reinforcing the current seller’s market designation while still giving buyers a bit more time than during the most frenzied periods.
Sales activity paints a nuanced picture, with homes sold up more than 20 percent year over year, but pending sales falling by nearly 40 percent, which may signal some recent cooling in buyer urgency. Properties now take a median of 34 days to go under contract, faster than a year ago but considerably slower than earlier this year, and roughly 31 percent of recent sales closed above list price, a substantial increase from last year’s share. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting dynamics can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a Sherman Oaks real estate agent who understands the local numbers and trends.
Sherman Oaks offers residents a vibrant, family-friendly community with leafy streets, convenient shops and services, welcoming parks, and a strong sense of neighborhood connection.
Sherman Oaks in San Jose sits just west of downtown, with quick access to I-280 and major commute routes that connect residents to jobs across the South Bay and Peninsula. The neighborhood is largely residential, with a mix of single family homes and low rise apartments, giving a practical range of options for different budgets and stages of life.
Day to day convenience is a key draw. The Bascom Branch Library and nearby Bascom Community Center offer classes, youth programs, and shared workspaces. Families appreciate proximity to Sherman Oaks Community Charter School and other campuses within San Jose, while nearby Valley Fair and Santana Row provide shopping, restaurants, and entertainment without a long drive.
Parks and recreation are close at hand. Residents can reach Santa Clara County trailheads and regional open spaces in under 30 minutes, and local playgrounds and sports fields make it easy to stay active without leaving the neighborhood. Transit riders benefit from connections to VTA bus lines that link Sherman Oaks to downtown and Santa Clara County job centers.
Because the streets, schools, and amenities vary block by block, working with a local real estate agent who knows Sherman Oaks helps buyers identify the right fit and helps sellers price and market with confidence, reducing stress at every step. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with that kind of neighborhood specific expertise.

“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.”
“Lynne has been sending me real estate information on my email for at least 3 years. When my Mom passed away in May, 2026, I needed to sell her house since that was the plan I had with my siblings. I contacted Lynne and when I met her, I immediately felt she was the right realtor for us. She proved her expertise and professionalism by being so resilient in her pursuit of a buyer and not giving up. She continued to search for buyers and constantly communicating with me and giving me updates. The house she was selling had 7 negatives and in spite of that, she was still able to find the correct buyer. I have never met her before but she became my most wonderful friend.”
“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.”
“I am extremely satisfied with Kim and Alex's work as my selling agents for my home in San Jose. Their collaborative approach resulted in an exceptional outcome. Kim and Alex expertly guided me through the entire home preparation and selling process. Their General Contractor, landscapers and cleaner meticulously prepared my home for market, maximizing its appeal and value. I particularly appreciated Alex's keen eye for detail in overseeing the renovations, including paint, fixtures and appliance selections, ensuring the property presented its best to potential buyers. I found the flexible payment options for the renovation work extremely accommodating. Throughout the process, Kim and Alex consistently demonstrated extraordinary communication and professionalism. They patiently addressed all my questions and concerns, providing clear explanations and valuable insights. They consistently prioritized my needs and allowed me ample time to make informed decisions without any pressure. Several times they sensed I was uncertain or anxious about selling. Alex and Kim scheduled calls to clearly listen to my concerns. Kim was great on these calls. She had an amazing sense of my concern and asked questions to better understand the situation, then she and Alex would provide examples & options for me to consider. I enthusiastically recommend Kim and Alex to anyone considering selling or buying a home.”
“We had a great experience working with Tammie! She has helped us buy and sell homes over the years, and we truly appreciate her support. She is knowledgeable, patient, honest, and always available to answer our questions. She genuinely cares about her clients and makes the entire process smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend Tammie!”
“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!”
“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.”

“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.”

“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!”
“My wife and I used Andrea to help us sell our rental property in Morgan Hill. This was a 10-31 exchange that my wife and I hadn’t done before. Andrea was very knowledgeable and developed a plan to help us market and sell our home to obtain the best possible price. She was there for the whole process, meeting with our past tenants, helping us set up and coordinate contractors, marketing, and negotiating with multiple bids for our home. This was a friendly, easy process. We couldn’t have been more pleased using Andrea.”
“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. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an agent.”
