Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Year-over-year, Tamien’s rolling three-month numbers show a clear reset in pricing and pace. The typical home value has dropped sharply compared with last year, down nearly half, while the median list price is also lower year over year, signaling sellers have pulled back on pricing expectations.
In the most recent rolling three-month period ending in September 2026, the typical home value sits around $630,000, well below the broader San Jose median of about $1.35 million. Even with this gap, homes are taking longer to move, with median days on market up to 84 days, roughly 47 percent higher than a year ago.
Inventory and activity trends add another layer to the story, as active listings and new listings are both down by more than half from last year and pending sales show a similarly large year-over-year decline. With only about 0.6 months of supply and no recent sales closing above list price, Tamien still registers as a seller’s market by standard metrics, yet buyers clearly have more leverage than in past years, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these shifting dynamics.
Tamien offers residents a welcoming, walkable neighborhood with convenient transit links, local amenities, and a tight-knit community vibe that supports everyday life.
Tamien in San Jose offers rare convenience, with direct access to the Tamien Station Caltrain and light rail hub, quick connections to downtown, and easy freeway access for regional commutes. The neighborhood sits just south of Downtown San Jose, close to employment centers yet residential in feel, appealing to both long‑time locals and newcomers.
Daily life here is practical and straightforward.

Weekend errands are simple, with grocery options, services, and neighborhood dining within a short drive, plus the broader offerings of Willow Glen and Central San Jose close at hand.
Cultural and entertainment options are also nearby. Residents can catch a game or concert at SAP Center or explore museums and theaters around San Jose State University and East San Jose, all without sacrificing a quieter home base.
Because Tamien spans rail lines, major roads, and varied housing types, local expertise matters. A knowledgeable agent who understands block‑by‑block differences, school boundaries, and transit impacts can help buyers find the right fit and help sellers position their home confidently. Agent Pronto connects you with that kind of local specialist, helping both buyers and sellers move through the process with less stress and more clarity.

“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Working with Victor to buy our home was an absolutely fantastic experience. From day one, he went above and beyond, shadowing us through every single step of the process. Buying a home can be incredibly overwhelming, but Victor made us feel supported, informed, and confident at every turn. He was always there to answer our questions, navigate the paperwork, and ensure we knew exactly what to expect next. His dedication, attention to detail, and constant presence gave us peace of mind and confidence that we were not being taken advantage of by the sellers. If you are looking for a professional who will genuinely dedicate themselves to your journey and guide you through the process with expertise and care, we cannot recommend Victor highly enough! Thank you, Victor, for helping us find our home!”
“My family and I are very grateful to have met Brian Sarkis. He is the best of the best when it comes to realty. If there was a way to give him more than 5 stars, we would, because he deserves it. He is hardworking, professional, respectful, very knowledgeable about the housing market, highly responsive, a brilliant negotiator and great at coming up with strategic realty plans. Any questions we had he always had an answer. When dealing with the prepping of my home before putting it on the market he helped with finding good contractors, plumbers, painters, carpet installers, LVP installers & handymen to give the home some much-needed upgrades. From the start to the end of our home-selling journey, he truly cared about not just the home, but my family and I too, especially in helping us achieve our goal of selling our old home and purchasing our dream home. He made sure that the transition between moving out of our previous home to moving in to our new home was as smooth as possible. When purchasing our new home, he listened to what my family and I wanted and helped us locate our dream home. You can tell that he genuinely loves his job, which is why he is so good at it. We will highly recommend him to all our family, friends and neighbors. Thank you, Brian, for all your hard work! You did an amazing job!”
“Mark is so patient! Iv worked with other realtors and thought that was just the standard, being rushed all the time. Mark has set the bar! I also loved how he had an answer to every question, or would know how to get it, no matter what it was about. Looking forward to working with Mark in the future!”
“Jonathan Shaffer did an incredible job helping our family secure our first home in Palo Alto. The Bay Area market is extremely competitive, but Jonathan’s knowledge of the area and his strategic mindset made all the difference. He guided us through the entire process of choosing and making an offer with professionalism, ease and genuine care. We couldn't be happier. Highly recommended!”
“Everything very good, an incredible person, very attentive and with a lot of patience.”super super Highly recommended.” GRACIAS 🙏”
“Working with Zuhra during a very poor sales period (she was representing us as sellers) was an incredible experience. She is very knowledgeable and organized and hardworking and anticipates problems and issues before they become crisis. From putting the house on the market to repairs and staging (and great advice for both, what to do and what NOT to do!) to holding Opens to working with us through negotiations, it was all a pleasure. Her aim is for the client to achieve our best price and what we need. When we were getting down due to the bad market, she remained upbeat and positive and told us you have a good house and it will find its buyer. And she was right!”
“Jobelle helped us sell our bay area property with utmost transparency and honesty. We felt comfortable immediately when we started our interactions with her and her team. She listened carefully to our requirements and provided professional feedback, including financial advice! She takes great care to provide us with her best advice and guidance. The sale was completed without any issues. I would not hesitate to recommend her to my family and friends, we can trust her and her team to deliver.”
“This is a long time pending review for Edward. I can recommend Edward to anyone looking to buy in the Bay Area. Specially if you're a first time buyer. He is extremely professional, process oriented and goes by the book always. He has extensive knowledge about the local laws, general practices and the right things to do. His approach of giving us a very personalized experience. He lets you work at your pace and never makes you feel pressured. He has been very patient with us, went to a lot of viewings and eventually we bought our home. He even helped us get in touch with a couple contractors in his network for initial repairs before our move-in. He's still in touch and offers advice on varied topics. I can keep on going, extremely happy we went with him.”
“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.”
“Deborah was very helpful every step of the process, she did an outstanding job on helping us find our house, she made sure that the house we visited were a fit to our family needs, she explained everything we needed to know in a clear and kind way. We will be forever thankfull for all her help.”

Jordy's deep knowledge of the local market, combined with his proactive communication and personalized approach, made the entire process seamless. He took the time to understand my preferences, provided valuable insights, and was always available to answer questions. Thanks to his expertise, I found a home that truly fits my needs. I highly recommend Jordy to anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable real estate professional.”
