Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Home values in Central San Rafael have inched up over the past year, with the typical home value in the latest rolling three-month period reaching around $1.35 million, about 5% higher than a year ago. This tracks closely with the broader San Rafael market, where prices are also up roughly 6% year over year.
Listing and contract activity point to steady demand. Homes sold are up about 11% from a year ago. Pending sales have climbed even more sharply, rising just over 30% year over year.
Inventory and selling conditions underscore a clear seller’s market. Active listings have increased modestly from last year, yet months of supply has fallen to about 2.3 months, down more than half year over year, signaling limited available stock relative to demand. Nearly 44% of recent sales closed above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 102%, indicating buyers are often paying at or above asking. With a typical home spending about 28 days on the market in this rolling three-month view, both buyers and sellers can benefit from working with an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate agent to navigate pricing, timing, and offers effectively.
Central San Rafael offers residents a vibrant mix of neighborhood charm, walkable streets, and convenient access to parks, shops, and community spaces that foster a connected, active lifestyle.

“Lolli is wonderful. Worked with her twice now, and would do so again. She is communcative, knowledgable, kind and hard working. I trusted her to handle almost all aspects of selling my house, as I was living across the country at the time. She organized cleanup, repairs, staging, photos and everything else. Even picked up a package I had accidently sent to the house. Thank you for everything Lolli!”
“Denise was wonderful to work with. She is experienced, knows the market inside and out, and is 100% professional in every way. I was amazed at her organizational skills and her patience. She worked incredibly well with a myriad of inspectors and vendors, while paying strict attention and tracking every detail. And, she’s a lovely person, to boot! I highly recommend working with Denise, I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again. Thanks, Denise!!”
“Angelina Rantissi was very professional and knowledgeable. She guided me through the whole process seamlesly. She said at the very beginning that she was available at any time and not to hesitate to call. This was very important to me, as I live in Maryland and the 3 hour time difference could have been problematic. She helped me find handymen and movers. I highly recommend her. Thank you Angelina !”
“She has patience and helped me navigate the new electronic world of real estate.”
“Through Agent Pronto I was connected with an agent, Michael Pellegrini, who worked with us to buy a vacation property. I was pleased that the whole process was done in a professional manner.”
“Agent Pronto put us in touch with two knowledgeable, local agents. The agent we worked with was amazing, quickly honed in on what we were looking for, found us an ideal house, and guided us through the purchase process. Two months after first speaking we closed on the perfect place.”
“Efficient and non-intrusive service. They recommended an agent, Craig Ackerman, who got us our dream home after only 3 weeks, 4 house-viewings, and one offer later. We'd gone through 3 ineffective agents over a 4 month period before this, so it was much appreciated!”
