“Sonia and Chris were very patient with my husband and I on our journey to finding our new home. Whenever we had questions they were very knowledgeable and prompt with a response and we really appreciate their services.”
“Sue has sold two houses for me, and both times the outcome was great! Quick sale, with Sue handling everything for me... she kept me in the loop with the information I needed, but I could go on with the rest of my life confident that she had everything under control. I look forward to engaging Sue again for my next real estate transaction. I highly recommend her!”

Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Hillsborough real estate market, updated for December 2025. *
The typical home value in Hillsborough is projected to be $301,750 for the month of December. November’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the city to be $342,500—down 13.29% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, county-level data pegged home values at $475,000 in Orange County for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $438,750 in December.
Hillsborough had 10 new listings and 11 listings that went under contract in November, decreasing the area’s total available inventory to 37—down 15.91% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further decreased in December.
Of those 37 active listings, 21.62% reduced their price in the month of November. The median listing price for homes in Hillsborough fell 11.48% from October to November, bringing the current median listing price to $354,000. Based on projected data for December, listing prices may continue to fall.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract rose year-over-year. In November 2025, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 31 days, compared to 16 days in November 2024. However, in recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be falling. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this December.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
