The reason for breaking down the active and pending listings by zip code is to give the readers a closer look at their neighborhood stats. Our Big Three - Carmel Valley, Encinitas, and SE Carlsbad - continue to carry substantially more pendings than active listings,...
Actives/Pendings
Inventory Watch
As long as there are more pendings than actives, the market is doing just fine. Oh well - that was last week's thought. As you can imagine, it's the high-end market that is loaded with actives. This week an agent commented on what a delightful experience he had...
NSDCC Frenzy Monitor
To help get a sense of the frenzy conditions, let’s monitor the number of active & pending listings per area. If the active (unsold) listings start to rise, we will know that pricing is becoming an issue. But so far, the demand for detached homes between Carlsbad...
