Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory in Santa Clara has expanded in this rolling three-month view, with active listings up more than 20 percent from a year ago. New listings are also more than 20 percent higher year over year, while months of supply has risen to 2.1, about 62 percent higher than last year. Even with more choices, contract activity is steady, as homes sold are up nearly 8 percent from a year ago and pending sales are holding roughly flat.
Prices are showing only mild year-over-year softening despite this added supply. The typical home value is down less than 1 percent compared with a year earlier, and the median list price has dipped by a similar margin, suggesting sellers are adjusting expectations only slightly. Homes are taking a bit longer to sell, with median days on market at 20 days, about 5 percent higher than last year, signaling that buyers have a little more time to make decisions.
Competition nonetheless remains noticeable in this seller-leaning environment. More than half of recent sales closed above the asking price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is still just over 103 percent, indicating buyers often need to bid over list to win desirable homes. With these shifting dynamics of rising inventory but still-firm pricing, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a Santa Clara agent who understands how to navigate today’s conditions.
Santa Clara offers residents a vibrant, well-rounded mix of tech opportunities, cultural amenities, ample parks, strong schools, and a welcoming, community-minded quality of life.
Santa Clara stands out in the heart of Silicon Valley by feeling like a true hometown, even with major employers and tech campuses close by in San Jose and Sunnyvale. Tree‑lined neighborhoods, established schools, and local parks give the city a grounded identity that appeals to both long‑time residents and newcomers.
Community life often revolves around family‑friendly amenities. Many weekends are spent at Central Park, the International Swim Center, or catching a game at Levi’s Stadium. The Santa Clara City Library system and programming at the Triton Museum of Art reflect a civic culture that values learning and the arts. Historic districts near the University of Santa Clara campus mix classic architecture with student energy, while newer developments closer to San Jose appeal to buyers who want modern conveniences.
Access is another strength. Major routes connect residents to nearby Cupertino and Mountain View, and transit options link to regional job centers. Dining ranges from long‑standing neighborhood favorites to contemporary spots around Santa Clara County.
In this fast‑moving market, timing and preparation matter. Whether you are getting your Santa Clara home ready to list or weighing a move into the area, the right local expertise can help you act confidently. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with agents who know how to navigate Santa Clara’s unique opportunities.

“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.”
“I met Alicia at an open house, and she was friendly and approachable from the start. She took the time to show me around, answer my questions, and offer helpful suggestions on what to look for in a home. I appreciated her insight and how comfortable she made the whole experience. I’d definitely recommend reaching out to her!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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 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.”
“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.”
“From the very beginning, Mona’s professionalism and deep understanding of the probate sale process gave me confidence. She was relentless in negotiations, always advocating for our best interests. Even after the sale closed, Mona remained incredibly helpful, offering advice and support whenever needed. Her ability to simplify a complex process, paired with her industrious work ethic, made the entire experience far less stressful. I truly appreciate her dedication and would recommend Mona without hesitation to anyone navigating a probate sale.”
“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!”
“I first met Jessica in July 2024 at an open house she was hosting in Emerald Hills. We weren't really looking for anything in particular at the time and told Jessica as such. Still, she was still super welcoming and chatted with us to get a feel for what we were looking for. Couple of weeks later, she emailed me with a place she found that fit what we told her, so I was impressed that she took notes. We didn't have an agent at the time so we figured we'd work with her to give it a try. We started to seriously look for a new home at the beginning of 2025 and Jessica was always super responsive and honest with her assessment of the various places we found on Zillow. Embarrassingly, we put Jessica through the blender a couple of times (three times, to be exact) thinking that we were going to bid for a house but didn't end up going through with it for various reasons. Each time, Jessica was gracious and patient with us and continued to help us search for our new home. At long last, we found one we liked (Jessica approves, lol) and are about to close on the house really soon! She helped us negotiate the price down and even got us a set of washer/dryer from the seller ;) To whoever's reading this, the fact that I'm writing this without AI assistance should demonstrate to you my appreciation for Jessica and how we really recommend her if you're looking for a new home in the Bay Area! Edit: adding that Jessica works with construction guys too so she can tell when something's not to code!!”
“Working with Joe and the entire RISE Homes team was truly a dream! They made selling our home such a breeze from start to finish. They handled every detail, both big and small, which took a huge weight off our family's shoulders. Joe and his team genuinely listened to all of our questions, comments, and concerns with care and patience. They always made sure to check in with us throughout every step of the process, keeping us informed and making sure we felt supported along the way. We truly cannot thank Joe and the entire RISE Homes team enough for everything they did for our family. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell 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!”
“Casey did more for the sale of my home than I ever could have imagined. The market is so slow, but his recommendations and skill at filling an Open House awarded me an offer on Day one of Open House! Homes on Hillcrest were taking 2-3 months to sell and only after multiple price reductions. Our Open House was full while an Open House up the street the same day never saw a single buyer. His work ethic didn’t disappear after the initial offer either and I ended up accepting that first offer a week later at $10 over asking, that was $15k more than their initial offer. He is personable and smart with the patience of a saint. I definitely threw him a few obstacles during the sale that he made work with ease. I could not recommend any realator nor any person higher.”
“Jennifer is an incredibly kind and knowledgeable realtor. She helped us with the purchase of our most recent home and she made the house buying process so easy and was amazing at giving us any updates. I would recommend her without hesitation to any of my family or friends. She was honest and straightforward and made the home buying process so much easier!”
“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.”
“As a first time homebuyer, I was both excited and nervous about the homebuying process regardless of how much I researched and prepared. My partner and I were actually planning to wait until next year but all the stars aligned and we’re now living in our dream home, and we couldn’t have done it without Brandon! With a wealth of experience, Brandon helped make the homebuying process less daunting by thoroughly explaining each step along the way and communicating with us clearly and consistently. When we first met, we’d planned on just a house tour and Brandon was welcoming, friendly and informative without pressuring us to move our timeline. He then referred us to an open house in Castaic/Santa Clarita and as soon as we stepped in, we knew it was our forever home. We contacted Brandon immediately afterwards and he helped make it happen, working expeditiously to get our offer letter to the seller and connecting us with a trusted lender who we ultimately decided to use. And when we discovered that there was another offer on the house, Brandon advocated for us with the listing agent and guided us on how to make a competitive offer. His expertise, negotiation skills and strong business relationships were instrumental in getting our offer accepted. Soon after, we were full force with paperwork and necessary next steps. Whenever I had questions, which I had plenty of, Brandon was very responsive, patient and reassuring. He understood our needs and expectations as a first time homebuyer and delivered on that tenfold. We found the perfect home, made an offer the next day, closed in a month and now we’re all moved in! All this to say that I highly recommend Brandon as your real estate agent. He has the experience, knowledge and more than a realtor, he’s a great and kind person to help guide you on your homebuying journey.”
“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!”
“Graeham Watts and his team are absolutely incredible. He recently marketed and sold my home in East Palo Alto, and I couldn't be happier with how everything went.From start to finish, Graeham and his team took care of literally everything. I didn't have to worry about a thing because they handled all the disclosures and coordinated directly with contractors to get the house ready. Their execution was flawless, and they kept everything moving forward without any stress on my end. Graeham's deep understanding of the East Palo Alto housing market was evident in how beautifully he positioned and marketed the property. If you want a real estate team that handles all the heavy lifting and actually delivers on their promises, look no further. I highly recommend Graeham and his team!”
“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!”
