Marin County Real Estate Market Report - May 2020
May 8 2020
Since mid-March, shelter-in-place caused steep drops in activity across the board in what is typically the busiest selling season of the year. However, activity has been picking up since bottoming out in late March/early April, and will presumably continue to increase with the easing of both shelter-in-place and property-showing rules. Though the Marin April median house price declined a little year over year (after 3 months of increases), too much should not be made of one month’s data – Marin’s monthly median sales price often fluctuates without great meaningfulness. Interest rates hit a new historic low in the last week of April.

Marin County Real Estate Market Report - April 2020

The first thing to remember is that there is a time lag - usually 3 to 6+ weeks - between a new listing coming on market, an offer being negotiated and accepted, and when the transaction actually closes sale. This means that almost all of the sales price data we have, as of the first week of April, still reflects the market BEFORE the shelter-in-place rules went into effect. In virtually all Bay Area counties, including Marin County, March median sales prices were quite strong.
