Market Trends

New Listings, Pending Sales, Price Changes - Central Coast MLS Residential* - July 2004 thru February 2010  (Updated 3/01/10)  *Includes San Luis Obispo County & Santa Maria/Orcutt

You can read Keith's San Luis Obispo Real Estate Blog to get all the MLS data each month. Because this chart uses Pending Sales, you can can get a better read on what's happening with the market than if you looked at Sold data since it takes 30-45 days for most escrows to close. For example, when you read an article talking about May Solds, most of those homes went Pending in April, with some even going Pending in March. May could have been a  month with a lot of activity but you won't know it until the June and July Sold data is reported.
