Daly City and South San Francisco have continued to steadily decline in inventory. Daly City from over 5 months’ inventory in January to just under 2 in November. South City from 6 months to 2.3 months’ inventory.
The only dramatic changes have been increases in inventory. Atherton, Foster City, Half Moon Bay, Montara and Portola Valley have all double in numbers comparing January to November.
Looking at other stats in Foster City, it appears that that increase is having an impact: The median sale price has gone from $1,227,500 in January to $999,888 in November – a drop in median of over $225,000. The percentage of list price dropped from 99.31% to 97.23%.
