Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
In Penitas, a rolling three-month look shows inventory has expanded sharply over the past year, even with some recent pullback. Active listings are up more than 85% year over year, while months of supply has climbed into the double digits, marking a clear buyer’s market despite a complicated year-over-year comparison. Contract activity has also shifted, with homes sold more than doubling from a year ago and pending sales up about 50%, suggesting more buyers are engaging even as choices grow.
Prices are adjusting in response to these changing dynamics. The typical home value over the latest rolling period is around the mid-$200,000s and has slipped about 7% compared with a year earlier, with the median list price showing a smaller year-over-year dip. Even with softer pricing, about one in four recent sales closed above the list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio sits just under 93%, indicating many sellers are still negotiating from a position close to their asking price.
Time on market and new supply trends further highlight the shifting balance. Homes now spend just over a month on the market on a typical basis, up modestly from a year ago, while new listings are only slightly higher year over year despite the much larger active inventory. With Penitas clearly tilted toward buyers but still rewarding well-priced listings, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands these nuanced conditions.
