      <title>The Second 2026 San Diego Restaurant Week Starts September 13</title>
      <description>2026 San Diego Restaurant Week Starts September 13 Local foodies will no doubt be thrilled that San Diego Restaurant Week is just around the corner. Restaurant Week begins Sunday September 13th and runs through the 20th.  This is the 2nd of 2 events for 2026 with 8 days of wonderful dining opportunities. San Diegans will enjoy a wide range of food offerings at great prices at 100+ restaurants around San Diego! Food lovers certainly can’t go wrong with so many options. The big challenge is making the decision about where to eat, and at how many different eateries during Restaurant Week. San Diego Restaurant Week offers reduced prices on fixed price multi-course menus for lunch, brunch and/or dinner. Some eateries may offer a drink as a course. Keep in mind that not all restaurants offer 3 meals – some only offer dinner. Restaurants cover a wide geographic area, including downtown San Diego, inland/East County, and north to Carlsbad and Oceanside. &lt;img style="margin:35px;float: right;" src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Carlsbad+Sign+2.JPG"&gt;There are 6 restaurants participating in my hometown of Carlsbad – Seasons Restaurant, Ponto Lago, Ember and Rye, Vue, Chart House, and Benihana. Fixed prices vary by meal, starting at $20 at lunch (there are a limited number at this price), and range by restaurant. Check out the individual restaurant listings to see what is offered and pricing. 2026 San Diego Restaurant week is certainly a delicious way to check out restaurants where you might not typically eat. It’s a great opportunity to expand your culinary horizons and dine at places you’ve heard about but haven’t yet tried. Some restaurants offer outdoor dining, curbside pick-up/take-out, and deliveries. Don’t make assumptions but check with the restaurant first, depending on your preferences, for options, pricing and availability. And be sure to check the restaurant hours and meals offered…it may only be dinner!No doubt you will find some dining options near your home. But why not travel a bit and explore new places. It’s a great opportunity to be adventurous in your dining instead of doing the same old thing. It’s easy to participate in San Diego Restaurant Week 2026. Tickets are not necessary. You simply visit participating restaurants that interest you and take advantage of great dining and special prices. Reservations are not required, however, they are highly recommended, especially for dinner and on the weekend. Keep in mind this is a popular event. It’s better to be prepared with a reservation than have to wait in line or find out there is no room for you. If you’re not keen on the Restaurant Week options being offered you can order from the regular menu. Some restaurants offer Open Table reservations directly from the San Diego Restaurant Week website, or from their own business websites. It’s time to plan brunch, lunch or dinner out during San Diego Restaurant Week, perhaps more than once. All that’s needed is your wallet and a good appetite and you are ready to enjoy! Bon Appetit/Buon Appetito!!&lt;table style="border-collapse: collapse;width: 636px;height: 449px;" border="0"&gt;

      <description>What’s the Value of my Encinitas Home? Encinitas Market Report for July 2026 &lt;img style="margin:35px;float: right;" src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/CLICK+to+Search+for+Encinitas+Homes.jpg"&gt;It’s important that serious Encinitas sellers and buyers have current information about local market conditions, and understand the affect they have on buying and selling, in order to make educated decisions about Encinitas homes for sale. Here’s what happened in the July 2026 housing market in Encinitas, based on data from the MLS (private sales are not included nor are manufactured, mobile, or multi-family homes). These statistics are believed reliable when this report was written but are not guaranteed. READ MORE: Encinitas – An Eclectic Seaside CommunityLeucadia- Surfers' Beach Community in Encinitas CA 40 homes sold in Encinitas in July, 6 fewer than last month. Here’s the breakdown of the housing activity. Single Family Homes Sold31 (down by 1); 17 Average Days on Market; Average Sales Price was $2,548,979 (down 7%); Average Sales Price was 101% of the original asking price.Condos, Townhomes &amp;amp; Duplexes Sold9 (down by 5); 18 Days on Market; Average Sales Price was $1,416,888 (down 5%); Average Sales Price was 94% of original asking price. Overall sales volume of Encinitas home sales declined modestly from last month. Single family home sales went down by 1 while condo, townhome and duplex sales were down 5% from last month’s sales. Looking back 1 year, 5 fewer single family homes sold in July 2026 than in 2025 (36). Similarly, condo, townhome and duplex sales were up by 7 from 1 year ago (2). The average sales price for condos, townhomes and duplexes was lower than last month as it also was for single family homes. July sales prices ranged from $745,000 to $5,910,000. Compared to July 2025, the average sales price was up by 7% for single family homes sold in 2026 (while the median was up 23%). Similarly, the average sales price for the condos, townhomes and duplexes sold in July 2026 was up 51% from 1 year ago, while the 2026 median price was 31% higher than in July of 2025. Keep in mind there were only 2 condo, townhome and duplex sales in 2025. The average time on the market was shorter for single family homes at 17 days. Similarly, the days on market (DOM) was modestly shorter for condos, townhomes and duplexes compared to last month. 45% of the homes went pending in 7 days or less, about the same as last month. As a result, it remains important for buyers to be prepared to make prompt decisions about touring homes of interest to them and submitting strong offers! The median sales price for detached single family homes was $2,217,500 (down just 1% from last month). The median price for condos, townhomes and duplexes, $1,408,750, was down 13% from last month’s median sales price. While plenty of buyers negotiated their purchase prices down from list price, 53% paid asking price or higher, slightly fewer than in June. It’s important to keep this in mind when planning your offer strategy. There were 2 homes with an Active Under Contract status at the end of July, versus 1 last month. &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Encinitas+golf+course+luxury+home.jpg"&gt; The inventory shifted up in July, with 8 more listings available at the end of the month (112).  List prices range from $528,888 to $22,880,000.  This is a 3.1 month supply for condos, townhomes and duplexes (down from 3.2 months last month,) and 2.4 months for single family homes (up from 1.7 months last month). This is based on the current supply of homes and the rate of sales over the last 3 months. Encinitas is a strong sellers’ market for buyers of single family homes, and a seller’s market for condos, townhomes and duplexes. 58 Encinitas homes came on the market in July, compared to 62 last month. 32 homes went pending in July (excluding homes that closed), down from 41 pendings last month. I am happy to share more specific information about the Encinitas housing market for Encinitas Ranch, Leucadia, and Olivenhain, and other neighborhoods that may be of interest to you. I can also share additional area market information, answer questions about local market conditions, and help you sell your Encinitas home and/or buy a new property. Please reach out directly or via text at (760) 840-1360 to discuss your personal housing needs, plans, timing and budget. Then we can develop a strategy to help reach your real estate goals, whether you are planning to buy and/or sell. SEARCH FOR ENCINITAS HOMES FOR SALE READ MORE:Encinitas Homes for Sale – What Happened in the Encinitas Real Estate Market in June 2026&lt;table style="border-collapse: collapse;width: 636px;height: 449px;" border="0"&gt;

      <description>What’s the Value of My Carlsbad Home? Carlsbad Market Report for July 2026 &lt;img style="margin:35px;float: right;" src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/CLICK+to+SEARCH+Carlsbad+homes.jpg"&gt;The Carlsbad real estate market continues to evolve, with shifts from June and 1 year ago. Private sales, mobile homes and multi-family housing are not included in this report (the numbers are taken from the MLS and believed to be accurate as reported but are not guaranteed). Media market reports commonly tend to be general in nature. Thus, they do not reflect actual local housing market conditions (read more - How Local IS Local?). Up-to-date information, and analysis, about local market conditions will enable you to make informed buying and/or selling decisions about Carlsbad homes for sale. READ MORE ABOUT CARLSBADCarlsbad Village by the Sea 128 homes sold in Carlsbad in July (92008, 92009, 92010 and 92011), an increase of 5% from last month.

It’s still important for homebuyers to be ready to make prompt decisions in the Carlsbad housing market. More than half of the buyers negotiated their home purchase prices down from list price, however, 39% paid listing price or higher for their homes, about the same as last month. There is still plenty of buyer competition, and it’s wise to remember this when searching for your new home and planning an offer strategy. &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/The+Sanctuary+in+Carlsbad.jpg"&gt; The median sales price for single family detached homes was $1,97l5,000 compared to $1,835,000 in June.

These homes are considered active but may not allow further showings or be accepting back-up offers. They are included in the statistics below. Inventory at the end of July (219) decreased by 12% from last month (248). July list prices ranged from $439,000 to $9,995,000. There is a 2.9 month supply of condos, townhomes and duplexes (down from 3.1 months last month), and a supply of 1.2 months for single family homes (down from 1.6 months last month), based on the rate of sales over the last 3 months.

      <title>2026 Leo Carrillo Film Festival in Carlsbad</title>
      <description>Leo Carrillo Film Festival in Carlsbad 2026 Summer evenings are a great opportunity to enjoy being outdoors in Carlsbad. And if you happen to be a fan of historic movies, the annual Leo Carrillo Film Festival at the former ranch of this popular Hollywood actor may be right up your alley. The 20th Annual Leo Carrillo Film Festival will take place on 3 consecutive Friday nights - August 21, August 28 and September 4. Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park is a beautiful preservation of the land, hacienda, and other buildings that were owned by the popular Hollywood film and TV star Leo Carrillo. Carrillo is probably best known for playing Pancho in the 1950s TV series “The Cisco Kid”. A visit to this historic park in the heart of the Rancho Carrillo master planned community, and its peacocks, is well worth it. Even better, it’s free to attend! &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Carlsbad+peacock+at+Leo+Carrillo+Ranch+Park.jpg"&gt; Read more about this historic park:A Visit to the Leo Carrillo Historic Ranch Park in Carlsbad CA  The Leo Carrillo Film Festival features 2 historic films featuring Hollywood actor, Leo Carrillo. “Manhattan Merry Go Round” (1937) is on August 21, and “Under Western Skies” (1945) is on August 28. “Casablanca” (1942) on September 4 is being shown as a movie Leo Carrillo would presumably like but did not star in. The Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park opens at 6:00 PM and the movies begin at dusk. Tours of the Hacienda are available until approximately 7:30 before the movies. I’ve been on the Hacienda tour in the past and highly recommend it. It’s lots of fun and interesting to experience the history of this special historic place in the heart of Carlsbad. Gourmet snacks and beverages will be available to purchase from the snack bar. Be sure to bring a low-back chair, a flashlight, a blanket, and warm clothes. Evenings along the coast can get chilly, even in the summer, with those ocean breezes so be prepared! Before the start of the 1st 2 film nights you can enjoy an episode of “The Cisco Kid,” Carrillo’s TV claim to fame. NOTE – Movies are subject to change without notice. While the movies are free, you must register online for tickets – tickets are limited to 2 per person. Tickets are currently available online but spots (up to 250) are filling up so don’t delay if you want to attend 1 or more of these popular movie nights. The Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park is located at 6200 Flying LC Lane off Melrose Drive, about 1 mile south of Palomar Airport Road. For more information call (442) 339-5042.&lt;table style="border-collapse: collapse;width: 636px;height: 449px;" border="0"&gt;

      <title>What’s my Escondido Home Worth? Escondido Market Report for June 2026</title>
      <description>What’s the Value of my Escondido Home? Escondido Home Sales for June 2026 &lt;img style="margin:35px;float: right;" src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/CLICK+to+SEARCH+Escondido+homes.jpg"&gt;Escondido is an inland community in North San Diego County, about 20 miles east of the beaches, and is bordered by San Marcos, Fallbrook and Valley Center. Those buyers and sellers in the Escondido housing market who are serious need up-to-date information about local market conditions (Read More: Real Estate Is Local…But HOW Local?) to help them make educated buying and selling decisions about Escondido homes for sale. READ MORE:A Tour of Escondido – A Diverse Inland San Diego Community The following information was taken from the MLS (private sales are not included, nor are multifamily properties, or mobile and manufactured homes). This information is believed reliable when this report was written but is not guaranteed. 151 homes sold in June, 37% more sales than last month. Here’s an overview of the activity. Single Family Homes Sold124 (up 44%); 31 Average Days on Market; Average Sales Price $1,045,090 (down 2%); the Average Sales Price was 100% of the original asking price.Condos, Townhomes &amp;amp; Duplexes Sold27 (up by 3); 48 Average Days on Market; Average Sales Price $506,513 (down 19%); the Average sales price was 96% of the original asking price. Overall home sales in June rose substantially from last month. There were significantly more single family home sales, while condo, townhome and duplex sales increased by 3. The average sales price was slightly lower for single family homes, but was significantly lower for condos, townhomes and duplexes, compared to June. The marketing time was 1 week longer for single family homes compared to June, and was significantly longer for condos, townhomes and duplexes. Sales prices ranged from $278,000 to $2,137,938. Slightly over half the buyers negotiated their purchase prices, while 49% paid asking price or higher for their new homes, fewer than last month. Buyer competition continues to impact sales prices. Many buyers made prompt decisions to tour homes and make offers, with 23% of the homes going pending in 1 week or less, fewer than last month. The median sales price of $960,000 for the detached single family homes was slightly higher than last month ($957,500). In contrast, the median price for condos, townhomes and duplexes dropped by 23% last month to $490,000. There were 13 Escondido homes on the market with an Active Under Contract Status, versus 18 last month. These are included in the following statistics. At the end of June there were 303 homes for sale in Escondido, down modestly from 311 from last month. List prices for June range from $249,999 to $17,000,000 with 1 time share for $2000. &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Rimrock+Estates+Homes+in+Escondido.JPG"&gt; This translates to an inventory of 3.3 months for condos, townhomes and duplexes (down from 4 months last month). There is a 2.3 month supply of single family detached homes (down from 2.5 months last month), based on the rate of sales over the last 3 months. Escondido is a strong seller’s market for buyers of single family homes, and remains a seller’s market for condos, townhomes and duplexes. 148 homes came on the market in June, a decrease from last month’s 173. The number of homes going pending decreased from 114 last month to 101, excluding homes that closed escrow in June. I’m happy to share more detailed information about housing activity in Escondido, in individual zip codes, and for neighborhoods that are of interest. Please feel free to let me know of any questions that you have about the local market conditions. Please contact me directly or by text at (760) 840-1360 to talk about your particular housing needs, lifestyle, and budget. Then we can work together to create a strategy to buy your new Escondido home if that is your goal. If you are interested in selling your home in Escondido, I will provide a current market value and equity analysis for your property.

You’ll find it a pleasure if you take time to visit! Buyers and sellers who are serious participants in the Vista housing market need to have current information about local market conditions to enable them to make educated decisions about buying and selling Vista homes for sale. This information in this report was taken from the MLS (private sales are not included, nor are multifamily properties and mobile homes). The data are believed to be reliable when this report was written but are not guaranteed. 57 homes sold in Vista in June, 15% fewer sales than last month. Here are the details: Single Family Homes Sold47 (down by 6); 22 Average Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $999,412 (down 1%); Average sales price was 99% of the original price. Condos, Townhomes &amp;amp; Duplexes Sold10 (down by 4); 54 Average Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $573,940 (up 6%); Average sales price was 98% of the original asking price. The overall volume of sales in June decreased from last month. Detached single family home sales were down by 6, while condo, townhome and duplex sales declined by 4. The average sales price was slightly lower for single family homes, but was modestly higher for condos, townhomes and duplexes. The average marketing time was 1 week shorter for single family homes than last month, but was substantially longer for the condo, townhome and duplex sales. Sales prices in June ranged from $397,000 to $2,145,000. Buyers may wonder if Vista homes are selling quickly. The answer is that some do. In June 21 of the homes (37%) went pending in 1 week or less, more than last month. As a result, it’s still important for buyers to be ready to make quick decisions about seeing the homes they like and making offers so as to not miss opportunities. While more than half of the buyers negotiated their home prices down from asking price, 47% paid list price or higher, fewer than last month. It’s important to remember this when planning an offer strategy. The median sales price of single family homes was down by 3% from May at $910,000. In contrast, the median for condos, townhomes and duplexes increased slightly from $564,000 last month to $567,500. &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Homes+at+Heritage+and+Legends.jpg"&gt; The housing inventory increased 19% in June, with 171 homes for sale at the end of the month compared to 144 at the end of May which was good news for homebuyers. Home prices range from $399,000 to $4,200,000. There is a supply of 2.7 months for single family homes (up from 2.5 months last month). There is a 3.8 month supply of condos, townhomes and duplexes (up from 2.5 months last month). This is based on the rate of sales over the last 3 months and the current inventory. Based on the inventory, Vista is a strong seller’s market based on supply and demand for single family homes, as well as a seller’s market for condos, townhomes and duplexes. 104 new listings came on the market in June, compared to 74 last month. The number of homes going pending increased from 43 to 51, excluding homes that closed in June. I’m happy to provide more specific information about the housing market in Vista, including neighborhoods that interest you (e.g., Shadowridge; Buena Creek).

      <title>What's My La Jolla Home Worth? La Jolla Market Report for June 2026</title>
      <description>What's the Value of My La Jolla Home? La Jolla Home Sales for June 2026 &lt;img style="margin:35px;float: right;" src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/CLICK+to+SEARCH+La+Jolla+homes.jpg"&gt;La Jolla has a reputation as one of the more expensive housing markets in San Diego County. If you visit this upscale coastal community online (see Read More link below), or in real life, it’s easy to see why this is so. It’s essential that serious buyers and sellers in La Jolla have up-to-date information about local market conditions for La Jolla homes for sale to help them make educated decisions about buying and/or selling a La Jolla home. La Jolla is a coastal community with many homes offering gorgeous views of the ocean from the hills and along the coast. La Jolla has an upscale Village, which offers top-notch shopping, dining, galleries, and multiple services. La Jolla has often been compared to the French and Italian Rivieras due to its appealing ocean and coastline vistas, spectacular homes, and a comfortable climate year-round that attracts visitors from around the world. READ MORE:La Jolla Real Estate – A Jewel on the San Diego Coastline 46 homes sold in La Jolla in June, 12% fewer sales than in May. Here’s an overview of the activity (the MLS data do not include private sales and are believed accurate at the time this report was compiled but are not guaranteed). Single Family Homes Sold25 (up by 4); 33 Average Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $4,325,788 (down 11%); The Average Sales Price was 96% of the original asking price.Condos, Townhomes &amp;amp; Duplexes Sold21 (down 32%); 27 Average Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $1,326,595 (down 11%); The Average Sales Price was 96% of the original asking price. The overall volume of sales in the La Jolla real estate market declined from last month. Condo, townhome and duplex sales dropped substantially, while there were 4 more single family homes sales than last month. Sales prices ranged from $510,000 to $12,202,000. The average time on the market was shorter for condos, townhomes and duplexes, as it also was for single family homes. 30% of the buyers made prompt decisions, going pending in 1 week or less, more than last month. The message is that it’s important to be prepared for making quick decisions about touring homes and submitting offers since some properties go pending quickly. The average sales price for single family homes dropped 11% from May, no doubt due in part to the sale of 1 home for $17M last month that raised that average. The average sales price for condos, townhomes and duplexes also decreased from last month. While the majority of the home buyers were able to negotiate the prices of their new homes, at the same time 30% paid asking price or higher, which was a little more than last month. The median sales price of single family homes, $3,249,000, was up 2% from the median in May. In contrast, the median price of $1,230,000 for condos, townhomes and duplexes was down 5% from last month. &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/La+Jolla+homes.jpg"&gt; There were no La Jolla homes with an Active Under Contract status at the end of June, compared to 2 in May (when they occur these homes are considered active but might not accept backup offers or be available to tour). There were 170 homes on the market at the end of June, up 4% from last month. List prices ranged from $485,000 to $87,500,000.                                                                                    The current supply of single family homes is 3.5 months (up from 3.2 months last month), and 2.8 months for condos, townhomes and duplexes (up from 2.5 months last month). These statistics (absorption rate) are based on the rate of sales over the last 3 months and the current supply of homes. La Jolla is a seller’s market for single family homes, and a strong seller’s market for condos, townhomes and duplexes. There were 84 new listings in June, up from 70 in May which was good news for buyers. 42 homes went pending in June (excluding those homes that closed escrow) compared to 37 last month. If you would like more specifics about the housing market in La Jolla, please reach out to me. I can also provide details about residential areas that might be of interest (e.g., the Village, La Jolla Shores, La Jolla Farms). Please contact me directly or by text at (760) 840-1360. We can discuss your specific housing needs, budget, home buying goals and any questions that you have. Then we can develop a strategy to sell your current home if that’s your plan. SEARCH FOR HOMES FOR SALE IN LA JOLLA CA READ MORE:What’s my La Jolla Home Worth?

      <description>What’s the Value of My Del Mar Home? Del Mar Home Sales for June 2026 Del Mar is a small beach town. It’s also one of the more expensive communities in North San Diego County. According to the MLS the highest priced San Diego County property sold publicly was an oceanfront estate in Del Mar (sold October 2025 for $49,999,999). Serious buyers and sellers need to have  current information about local housing market conditions in Del Mar in order to make educated decisions about Del Mar homes for sale. The information in this report was taken from the MLS (the data are believed to be accurate at the time this report was written, but are not guaranteed, and do not include private/non-MLS sales). READ MORE: Del Mar – Affluent Seaside Town (A Community Profile) 21 homes sold in Del Mar in June, compared to 14 sales last month (up 50%). Here's a summary of the housing activity:Single Family Homes Sold17 (up by 8); 34 Average Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $4,788,813 (up 27%); Average Sales Price was 98% of the original asking price.Condos, Townhomes and Duplexes Sold4 (down by 1); 111 Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $2,427,500 (up 80%); the Average Sales Price was 97% of the original asking price. The overall volume of sales for June increased substantially from May. Single family detached home sales rose by 8, while condo, townhome and duplex sales dropped by 1. The average sales price increased for single family homes from last month, as it also did for condos, townhomes and duplex sales. Sales prices for June ranged from $1,300,000 to $13,325,000. Average marketing time was twice as long for single family homes as last month, and at 111 days more than doubled for condos, townhomes and duplexes (1 home took 366 days to go pending which raised the overall average). 6 homes went pending in 1 week or less. The median price of $3,950,000 for single family detached homes was 2% lower than last month.

A more accurate picture will result when you look at the Del Mar real estate market data over time, especially given that market conditions generally shift some every month. One cannot draw firm conclusions regarding pricing because of the price extremes of Del Mar properties, especially at the higher price points, in addition to the limited number of sales. Please reach out to me directly or via text at (760) 840-1360 with your questions. I’m happy to discuss your particular housing needs, lifestyle, timing and budget. With that information we can develop a plan to buy your new Del Mar home. I can also provide helpful market and equity information for your home, plus market preparation guidance, to help sell your Del Mar property if that is your goal. Search for Del Mar Homes for Sale READ MORE:What’s my Del Mar Home Worth?

These statistics are believed reliable when this report was written but are not guaranteed. READ MORE: Encinitas – An Eclectic Seaside CommunityLeucadia- Surfers' Beach Community in Encinitas CA 46 homes sold in Encinitas in June, versus 43 last month. Here’s the breakdown of the housing activity. Single Family Homes Sold32 (up by 2); 28 Average Days on Market; Average Sales Price was $2,730,852 (down 9%); Average Sales Price was 99% of the original asking price.Condos, Townhomes &amp;amp; Duplexes Sold14 (up by 1); 21 Days on Market; Average Sales Price was $1,491,964 (up 15%); Average Sales Price was 98% of original asking price. Overall sales volume of Encinitas home sales rose modestly from last month. Single family home sales went up by 2 while condo, townhome and duplex sales were up by 1 from last month’s sales. Looking back 1 year, 7 more single family homes sold in June 2026 than in 2025 (25). Similarly, condo, townhome and duplex sales were up by 2 from 1 year ago. The average sales price for condos, townhomes and duplexes was higher than last month but was lower for single family homes. June sales prices ranged from $560,000 to $5,600,000. Compared to June 2025, the average sales price was down 10% for single family homes sold in 2026 (while the median was down 16%). In contrast, the average sales price for the condos, townhomes and duplexes sold in June 2026 was up 23% from 1 year ago, while the 2026 median price was 27% higher than in June of 2025. The average time on the market was shorter for single family homes at 28 days. Similarly, the days on market (DOM) was substantially shorter for condos, townhomes and duplexes compared to last month. 46% of the homes went pending in 7 days or less, more than last month. Thus, it’s still important for buyers to be ready to make quick decisions about touring homes of interest to them and submitting strong offers! The median sales price for detached single family homes was $2,237,500 (down 16% from last month). The median price for condos, townhomes and duplexes, $1,408,750, was 20% higher than last month’s median sales price. While plenty of buyers negotiated their purchase prices down from list price, 54% paid asking price or higher, more than in May. It’s important to keep this in mind when planning your offer strategy. &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Encinitas+golf+course+luxury+home.jpg"&gt; There was 1 home with an Active Under Contract status at the end of June, versus 4 last month. The inventory shifted up in June, with 5 more listings available at the end of the month (104).  List prices range from $529,000 to $16,000,000.  This is a 3.2 month supply for condos, townhomes and duplexes (up from 2.4 months last month,) and 1.7 months for single family homes (down from 1.8 months last month). This is based on the current supply of homes and the rate of sales over the last 3 months. Encinitas is a very strong sellers’ market for buyers of single family homes, and a seller’s market for condos, townhomes and duplexes. 62 Encinitas homes came on the market in June, compared to 51 last month. 41 homes went pending in June (excluding homes that closed), up from 27 pendings last month. I am happy to share more specific information about the Encinitas housing market for Encinitas Ranch, Leucadia, and Olivenhain, and other neighborhoods that may be of interest to you. I can also share additional area market information, answer questions about local market conditions, and help you sell your Encinitas home and/or buy a new property.

      <title>Opening Day at the Del Mar Horse Races July 17, 2026</title>
      <description>2026 Opening Day at the Del Mar Horse Races Horse racing enthusiasts are no doubt eagerly anticipating the 2026 thoroughbred racing season coming soon to the Del Mar Racetrack. Opening Day is this Friday July 17th. Thoroughbred racing at the Del Mar Racetrack at the Del Mar Fairgrounds will run through Monday September 7th. Races take place Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, with the exception that there are races on Monday (Labor Day) September 1st. Here’s the full calendar of events and races. &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Del+Mar+Races.jpg"&gt; Horse racing at Del Mar is a favorite summer event for many area residents and visitors. There are plenty of fans from around Southern California and way beyond. Thoroughbred racing has been popular at the Del Mar racetrack for decades, with large crowds and plenty of famous, and not so famous, people. Del Mar thoroughbred racing has been a favorite scene to see Hollywood celebrities and other glitterati for years. The 2026 Del Mar Races will certainly be the same, especially on Opening Day, the height of the summer social season for many! Don’t delay getting your Tickets for Opening Day – it’s very popular and some prime seating options are already sold out. Opening Day at the Del Mar Racetrack includes the popular “Opening Day Hats Contest.”  Show off your hat in the Plaza de Mexico between 11:30 am and 3 pm. There is no entry fee to participate, and all you need is a great hat, and terrific clothes to show it off! &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Opening+Day+at+the+Del+Mar+Races.jpg"&gt; The prizes for the Hats Contest total over $5000 and are awarded in 4 categories: Most Glamorous, Best Fascinator, Best Flowers and Best Racing Theme and All Others. Race time is generally 2 pm and gates open 2 hours earlier. However, it’s smart to check the Calendar to see other race times as they may vary. Admission tickets must be purchased in advance (they include general parking). Remember that only vehicles with all passengers holding tickets for that day will be allowed to park. You must purchase tickets online in advance. A second and shorter horse racing season was added a few years ago. For 2026 this racing season runs from November 6th through the 29th. You can expect heavy traffic on the I-5 freeway, on the Coast Road, as well as major side streets like Via de la Valle. This is true on race days but especially on opening day, in addition to the normal summer crowds in the Del Mar area. 2026 Del Mar Races2260 Jimmy Durante Boulevard(Via de la Valle exit off the I-5 freeway)Del Mar, CA 92014&lt;table style="border-collapse: collapse;width: 636px;height: 449px;" border="0"&gt;

      <title>What’s My Carlsbad Home Worth? Carlsbad Home Sales for June 2026</title>
      <description>What’s the Value of My Carlsbad Home? Carlsbad Market Report for June 2026 The Carlsbad real estate market continues to evolve, with shifts from May and 1 year ago. Private sales, mobile homes and multi-family housing are not included in this report (the numbers are taken from the MLS and believed to be accurate as reported but are not guaranteed). Media market reports commonly tend to be generalized. As a result, they do not reflect the local housing market conditions (read more - How Local IS Local?). Up-to-date information, and analysis, about local market conditions will enable you to make informed buying and/or selling decisions about Carlsbad homes for sale. READ MORE ABOUT CARLSBADCarlsbad Village by the Sea 122 homes sold in Carlsbad in June (92008, 92009, 92010 and 92011), an increase of 15% from last month. Here are the specifics: Single Family Homes Sold89 (up 33%); 26 Average Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $1,998,949 (up 3%); Average Sales Price was 98% of the original asking price.Condos, Townhomes &amp;amp; Duplexes Sold33 (down 15%); 47 Average Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $1,118,105 (up 12%); Average Sales Price was 96% of the original asking price. Overall home sales in June increased by 15% from May. The number of single family home sales increased substantially, while there were 15% fewer condo, townhome and duplex sales compared to last month. The average sales price rose for single family homes as it also did for condos, townhomes and duplexes. Sales prices in June ranged from $475,000 to $5,025,000.  The average time on the market was 2 days shorter than last month for single family homes, but more than 2 weeks longer for condos, townhomes, and duplexes. 89 single family homes sold in June 2026, 23 more than 1 year ago. 33 condos, townhomes and duplexes sold in June 2026 compared to 48 in 2025. The average sales price year over year was down 3% for single family homes in June 2026 (the median price was down by 1%). The average sales price was about the same for condos, townhomes and duplexes sold in June 2026 compared to 1 year ago; the median price was 2% lower in 2025. &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Mount+Calavera+in+Carlsbad.jpg"&gt; A number of buyers decided promptly to tour listings and submit successful offers. 31% of the homes went pending in 1 week or less, fewer than last month. However, it’s still important for homebuyers to be prepared to make prompt decisions in the Carlsbad housing market. While more than half of the buyers were able to negotiate their home purchase prices down from list price, 40% paid listing price or higher for their homes (down from last month’s 45%). We continue to see plenty of buyer competition, and it’s wise to keep this in mind when searching for your new home and planning an offer strategy. The median sales price for single family detached homes was $1,835,000 compared to $1,755,000 in May. The median price was $860,000 for condos, townhomes and duplexes, compared to $850,000 last month. There were 15 homes in Carlsbad at the end of June with an Active Under Contract status, compared to 14 last month. These homes are considered active but might not allow further showings or be accepting back-up offers. They are included in the statistics below. Inventory at the end of June (248) decreased by 9% from last month (274). June list prices ranged from $455,000 to $12,000,000. There is a 3.1 month supply of condos, townhomes and duplexes (down from 3.4 months last month), and a supply of 1.6 months for single family homes (down from 1.9 months last month), based on the rate of sales over the last 3 months. Carlsbad continues to be a very strong sellers’ market for single family homes and is a seller’s market for condos, townhomes and duplexes. 145 new listings came on the market in June, 3 more than last month. 99 homes went pending (excluding homes that closed in June), 25% more than in May. This summary of the Carlsbad housing market is based on data found in the MLS. I’m happy to share other details about housing activity, including neighborhoods that June be of interest to you, such as La Costa, Aviara, Bressi Ranch, and Calavera Hills. Please reach out to me directly or by text at (760) 840-1360 to discuss your personal housing needs, timing, lifestyle, budget, and questions. Then we can work together to create a strategy to buy your new Carlsbad home, and/or sell your current home, depending on your goals. SEARCH FOR CARLSBAD HOMES FOR SALE Read MoreWhat’s My Carlsbad Home Worth?

      <title>The 2026 Aloha Plunge is July 18 in Carlsbad</title>
      <description>2026 Aloha Plunge in Carlsbad is July 18th  Don’t miss a great opportunity to celebrate the 2026 summer season with the Aloha Plunge on Saturday July 18th, from 5 to 8 PM. It’s a fun event for all ages! The Aloha Plunge takes place as always at the Alga Norte Community Park Aquatics Center. Alga Norte Community Park is at 6565 Alicante Road, at the corner of Poinsettia Lane, in the La Costa area of Carlsbad. The Aloha Plunge is limited to 500 attendees and registrations typically fill up quickly. The cost is $15 per person, with children ages 3 and under FREE (but must be identified at check-out online). Register online, and get your wrist bands now so you don't miss out. Tickets are on sale now - as of today almost 200 have reserved their spots. Ticket sales end July 17 at 5 pm. Tickets are nonfundable. &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Aquatic+Center+at+Alga+Norte+Community+Park.jpg"&gt; You can pick up wrist bands only at the Aquatics Center during normal business hours during the week preceding the event. Tickets will be available at the event if it’s not sold out. But I wouldn’t plan on it as they have sold out in the past. Bring your swimming suit and enjoy some island-themed fun, in the pool as well as on land!  You can challenge your aquatic talents with several water obstacles in the pool. And enjoy the pool-themed games and activities. On land kids will have fun with the tropical bounce house and there will be plenty of photo opportunities. There will also be lawn games to enjoy, too.

      <title>Red, White and BOOM 4th of July Fireworks and More in Carlsbad in 2026</title>
      <description>Red, White and BOOM 4th of July Fireworks and More in Carlsbad in 2026 The July 4th holiday is coming soon. Of course there will be celebrations and fireworks in and around Carlsbad, along with private festivities, cookouts, and picnics. And there’s some beach time too! Let’s hope our warm, sunny weather happens and the June Gloom doesn’t hang around! Feature Photo is from a drone show at the La Costa Resort for the 4th in 2025. The summer crowds have increased, restaurants are busy, and public parking at the beaches, and in the Village, has been harder to find. This will be true all week and especially for the holiday weekend beginning this coming Friday. Red, White and BOOM at Legoland This popular annual celebration with fireworks takes place at Legoland California in Carlsbad on Saturday, July 4th. There is fun for all ages, with rides, live DJ performances, lawn activities, a scavenger hunt and so much more! No doubt many will be dressed for the holiday in red, white and blue &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Drone+American+Flag.jpg"&gt; The popular Legoland fireworks can be seen for miles (we’ve watched them multiple times from the hill up the street from our home). So they are popular with area residents with lots of viewing points, along with everyone at Legoland on the 4th. The Red, White and BOOM celebration starts at 10 am and runs until 9 pm. Pre-fireworks entertainment begins at 8:00 with the fireworks at 8:45 lasting approximately 10 minutes. Grab the special 3D viewing glasses and watch an amazing show in the sky. All festivities for Red, White and BOOM are included in the admission price! 4th of July BBQ and Fireworks at the Park Hyatt Aviara Resort Another popular celebratory event for the July 4th holiday takes place the Park Hyatt Aviara Resort in Carlsbad.

      <title>What’s my Escondido Home Worth? Escondido Market Report for May 2026</title>
      <description>What’s the Value of my Escondido Home? Escondido Home Sales for May 2026 &lt;img style="margin:35px;float: right;" src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/CLICK+to+SEARCH+Escondido+homes.jpg"&gt;Escondido is inland in North San Diego County, about 20 miles east of the beaches, and is bordered by San Marcos, Fallbrook and Valley Center. Serious buyers and sellers in the Escondido housing market need current information about local market conditions (Read More: Real Estate Is Local…But HOW Local?) to help them make educated buying and selling decisions about Escondido homes for sale. READ MORE:A Tour of Escondido – A Diverse Inland San Diego Community The following information was found in the MLS (private sales are not included, nor are multifamily properties, or mobile and manufactured homes). This information is believed reliable when this report was written but is not guaranteed. 110 homes sold in May, 1 more sale than last month. Here’s an overview of the activity. Single Family Homes Sold86 (down by 5); 24 Average Days on Market; Average Sales Price $1,071,732 (down 2%); the Average Sales Price was 99% of the original asking price.Condos, Townhomes &amp;amp; Duplexes Sold24 (up by 6); 38 Average Days on Market; Average Sales Price $621,957 (up 37%); the Average sales price was 99% of the original asking price. Overall home sales in May were about the same as last month. There were 5 fewer single family home sales, while condo, townhome and duplex sales increased by 6. The average sales price was slightly lower for single family homes, but was significantly higher for condos, townhomes and duplexes, compared to May. The marketing time was shorter by 2 days for single family homes compared to May, but was significantly longer for condos, townhomes and duplexes. Sales prices ranged from $360,000 to $2,050,000. Nearly half the buyers were able to negotiate their purchase prices, while 52% paid asking price or higher for their new homes, fewer than last month. Buyer competition continues to impact sales prices. Many buyers made prompt decisions to tour homes and make offers, with 35% of the homes going pending in 1 week or less, just slightly less than last month. The median sales price of $957,500 for the detached single family homes was 2% higher than last month ($935,000). Similarly, the median price for condos, townhomes and duplexes rose substantially by 46% last month to $639,995. There were 18 Escondido homes on the market with an Active Under Contract Status, versus 13 last month. These are included in the following statistics. At the end of May there were 311 homes for sale in Escondido, up 10% from last month and more good news for buyers. List prices for May range from $249,950 to $17,000,000 with 1 time share  listed for $2000. This translates to an inventory of 4 months for condos, townhomes and duplexes (down from 4.7 months last month). There is a 2.5 month supply of single family detached homes (up from 2.4 months last month), based on the rate of sales over the last 3 months. Escondido is a strong seller’s market for buyers of single family homes, and is a seller’s market for condos, townhomes and duplexes. &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Home+at+Rimrock+Estates+in+Escondido.JPG"&gt; 173 homes came on the market in May, a decrease from last month’s 183. The number of homes going pending increased from 104 last month to 114, excluding homes that closed escrow in May. I’m happy to share more specific information about housing activity in Escondido, in individual zip codes, and for neighborhoods that are of interest.

      <title>What’s My Vista Home Worth? Vista Market Report May 2026</title>
      <description>What’s the Value of My Vista Home? Vista Home Sales Report May 2026 Vista is located in inland North San Diego County, and is bordered by Oceanside, Carlsbad and San Marcos. Vista has a variety of housing opportunities, including tract home neighborhoods (both gated and ungated), custom-built homes, condos and townhomes, rental complexes, and multiple 55+ senior communities.You will also find homes on large lots in rural areas, and in the hills, some of which offer dramatic views of the countryside and or even the distant ocean. Vista offers mixed use and agricultural areas as well. The downtown area continues to grow and change, and there are abundant dining and shopping opportunities and multiple services.  Major commuting routes (e.g., the 15 and 78 freeways) are readily accessible to residents. The Vista Farmers Market, established in 1981, is the longest running farmers market in San Diego! The Vista Farmers Market happens on Saturdays at the Vista Courthouse Complex on Melrose Drive, about ½ mile south of the 78 freeway. You’ll find plentiful fresh produce from multiple vendors, artisanal and prepared foods, and so much more. It’s a pleasure to take time to visit and shop! Serious buyers and sellers in the Vista housing market need to have current information about local market conditions to enable them to make informed decisions about buying and selling Vista homes for sale. This information in this report was found in the MLS (private sales are not included, nor are multifamily properties and mobile homes). The data are believed to be reliable when this report was written but are not guaranteed. 67 homes sold in Vista in May, 29% more sales than last month. Here are the details: Single Family Homes Sold53 (up by 8); 29 Average Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $1,006,922 (down 4%); Average sales price was 98% of the original price. Condos, Townhomes &amp;amp; Duplexes Sold14 (up 100%); 24 Average Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $542,892 (up 2%); Average sales price was 98% of the original asking price. The overall volume of sales in May increased substantially from last month. Detached single family home sales rose by 8, while condo, townhome and duplex sales doubled. The average sales price was lower for single family homes, and was modestly higher for condos, townhomes and duplexes. The average marketing time was 3 days shorter for single family homes than last month, but was 4 days longer for the condo, townhome and duplex sales. Sales prices in May ranged from $397,000 to $2,145,000. Buyers may be curious if Vista homes are selling quickly. The answer is that some do. In May 19 of the homes (28%) went pending in 1 week or less, slightly less than last month. Thus, it’s still important for buyers to be prepared to make prompt decisions about seeing the homes they like and making offers so as to not miss opportunities. More than half of the buyers were able to negotiate their home prices down from asking price, while 42% paid list price or higher, fewer than last month. It’s important to remember this when planning an offer strategy. The median sales price of single family homes was down by 4% from April at $940,000. In contrast, the median for condos, townhomes and duplexes increased from $485,900 last month to $564,000 (up 16%). The housing inventory increased 7% in May, with 144 homes for sale at the end of the month compared to 135 at the end of April. Home prices range from $380,000 to $3,499,000. There is a supply of 2.5 for single family homes (down from 2.6 months last month). There is a 2.5 month supply of condos, townhomes and duplexes (down from 2.9 months last month). This is based on the rate of sales over the last 3 months and current supply. &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Homes+at+Heritage+and+Legends.jpg"&gt; Based on the inventory, Vista is a strong seller’s market based on supply and demand for single family homes, as well as a strong seller’s market for condos, townhomes and duplexes. 74 new listings came on the market in May, compared to 73 last month. On the other hand the number of homes going pending decreased from 57 to 43, excluding homes that closed escrow in May. I’m happy to provide more specific information about the housing market in Vista, including neighborhoods that interest you (e.g., Shadowridge; Buena Creek). I’ll also answer all of your questions about local market conditions, and can assist you with the purchase, and/or sale, of your Vista home if that’s your goal. Please reach out to me directly or by text at (760) 840-1360 so we can discuss your particular housing needs, lifestyle, budget and timing. Then we can work together to develop a strategy to help buy your new Vista home if that is your goal. Are you curious about the value of your Vista home in today’s market?

      <description>What’s the Value of My Del Mar Home? Del Mar Home Sales for May 2026 &lt;img style="margin:35px;float: right;" src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/CLICK+to+SEARCH+Del+mar+homes.jpg"&gt;Del Mar is a small coastal town and one of the more expensive communities in North San Diego County. According to the MLS the highest priced San Diego County property sold publicly was an oceanfront estate in Del Mar (sold October 2025 for $49,999,999). It’s important that buyers and sellers have up-to-date information about local housing market conditions in Del Mar in order to make educated decisions about Del Mar homes for sale. The information in this report was taken from the MLS (the data are believed to be accurate at the time this report was written, but are not guaranteed, and do not include private/non-MLS sales).  READ MORE: Del Mar – Affluent Seaside Town (A Community Profile) 14 homes sold in Del Mar in May, compared to 16 sales last month. Here's a summary of the housing activity:Single Family Homes Sold9 (down by 6); 17 Average Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $3,778,339 (down 12%); Average Sales Price was 99% of the original asking price.Condos, Townhomes and Duplexes Sold5 (up by 4); 40 Days on Market; The Average Sales Price was $1,134,800; the Average Sales Price was 97% of the original asking price. The overall volume of sales for May decreased slightly from April. Single family detached home sales dropped by 6, while condo, townhome and duplex sales went up by 4. The average sales price decreased for single family homes from last month. Sales prices for May ranged from $640,000 to $4,650,000. Average marketing time was shorter for single family homes than last month. 4 homes went pending in 7 days or less. The median price of $4,050,000 for single family detached homes was 35% higher than last month. The median price for condos, townhomes and duplexes was $1,395,000. Half of the buyers were able to negotiate their purchase prices down from list price, while half paid asking price or higher for their new homes. There were no Del Mar homes on the market in May with an Active under Contract status, compared to 3 last month. 18 new listings came on the market in May, down from 33 in April. 13 homes went pending (excluding the homes that sold in May), the same as last month. List prices ranged from $625,000 to $49,900,000. The inventory dropped modestly by 5 to 54 for May. At the rate of sales over the last 3 months this represents a supply of 3.3 months for single family homes (down from 4.2 months last month), and 4.1 months for condos, townhomes and duplexes (up from 3.8 months last month). &lt;img src="https://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/agents/jdowler/files/Del+Mar+house+2.jpg"&gt; The Del Mar housing market is seller’s market for single family homes, and is still a seller’s market for condos, townhomes and duplexes. It’s important to remember that with any statistic one month of data does not reveal a trend. A more accurate picture emerges when you look at the Del Mar real estate market data over time, especially given that market conditions generally shift some every month. One cannot draw firm conclusions regarding pricing because of the price extremes of Del Mar properties, especially at the higher price points, in addition to the limited number of sales. Please reach out to me directly or by text at (760) 840-1360 with any questions. I’m happy to discuss your personal housing needs, lifestyle, timing and budget. With that information we can create a plan to buy your new Del Mar home. I can also provide helpful market and equity information for your home, plus market preparation guidance, to help sell your Del Mar property if that is your goal. Search for Del Mar Homes for Sale READ MORE:What’s my Del Mar Home Worth?
