The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 5-18-13.

San Carlos Real Estate Summary.

If you want a good snapshot that captures the speed and strength of the San Carlos Real estate market, just look at the stats directly below for homes that sold (closed escrow) this past week. The average price per square foot was over $700, the average number of days on the market was only 8, and the sales prices were roughly 7% above the asking price. Those are some pretty hefty numbers in a market that just doesn’t seem to be losing any steam.

It also serves as a great reminder that you have to stay on task if you’re actively looking to purchase a home in this market, because things are still moving very quickly — even as more listings are coming onto the market. If homes are selling within the first week of their debut, every single day matters when you’re putting together your buying strategy. And that will get further complicated as we head into the early part of the vacation season for many people.

Here are the numbers from last week:

New Listing: 3299 La Mesa Drive #9, San Carlos

Chuck Gillooley — Thu, 16 May 2013 10:58:59 PDT

The Best of Brittan Heights.

If you’re in the market for a condo in San Carlos, you’ll definitely want to see the unit that I’m putting on the market today up in Brittan Heights. 3299 La Mesa Drive #9 is one of the coveted top-level condos in the Brittan Heights complex. The top-level units are only a single flight of stairs up from the entry level, so they’re just as easy to access as the bottom level units. But they’re the only ones that have the soaring vaulted ceilings that give the unit a light and bright feel.

This two-bedroom unit has an updated kitchen with elegant counter tops, and is immaculately clean throughout. It has 1,040 square feet of bright and open living space that features a full master suite, guest bedroom, and two full bathrooms. And as you know with Brittan Heights, there are multiple pools and tennis courts located throughout the complex to indulge your active lifestyle.

One of the things I like best about Brittan Heights is the location. Nestled in the woods at the top of the hill, you almost feel like you’re in Tahoe, or up along the Skyline Ridge. But it’s literally a two minute drive to Highway 280 for your commute needs, and even closer to the beautiful and popular Edgewood Park, for those who really want a challenging run or hike.

This great condo will be open this weekend from 1-4 on both Saturday and Sunday, so be sure to get out and see it asap. The last two 2BR units that were for sale in Brittan Heights both sold in the first week on the market with multiple offers — and neither were top-level.

Click here for a virtual tour of the unit, or take a look at a few of the pictures of this wonderful home below:

Master Suite

Updated Kitchen

Patio Deck

I hope to see you all this weekend!

The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 5-11-13.

Chuck Gillooley — Sun, 12 May 2013 13:46:22 PDT

San Carlos Real Estate Summary.

Rumor has it in some communities that their respective real estate markets are beginning to cool down (which, of course, is a a completely relative term). I’ve heard some anecdotal comments from other agents that homes in these areas are getting fewer offers and not for as outlandishly above the list price as they were just a month or so ago.

I wish I could say the same about San Carlos, but that’s just not happening… at least not yet. Yes, there’s the occasional home that I thought would have been picked off much sooner, but by and large things are still moving in a fast-forward manner here. 10 homes went into contract just last week, and all but one of them didn’t last on the market for a full two weeks. Several of them never made it to their first open house. And a few of them fetched sales prices that will still make you gasp — if that’s even still possible after all that has happened so far this year.

No, those are not signs of a market that is starting to settle down, folks. There will be a couple very nice 3BR/2BA homes that will hit the market at the end of this week that will give us a very good idea of just temperature the market is sitting at. Stay tuned for those…

Here are the numbers from last week:

The San Carlos Real Estate Week in Review: 5-4-13.

Chuck Gillooley — Sun, 05 May 2013 08:25:27 PDT

San Carlos Real Estate Summary.

Inventory was the talk of the real estate community this week, and finally in a positive tone. Who would have thought that it would be good news when the inventory level hit 20? But it did this week, and that’s a milestone that hasn’t been achieved in about 3 months in San Carlos. There are actually more homes for sale now in San Carlos than there are in Belmont. It’s a “fresh” inventory of homes that buyers have to look at too, since the average days on market for all listings in San Carlos is only 10 days. So at least for this week, the table has turned slightly back in the direction of buyers. It will be interesting to see how they respond this coming week.

Here are the numbers from last week:

By The Numbers.

Below is a high-level snapshot of the market performance for single-family residences in San Carlos. This data is for the week ending 5-4-2013:

10th Annual San Carlos Hot Harvest Nights Starts Tonight.

Chuck Gillooley — Thu, 02 May 2013 11:35:25 PDT

A Summer Favorite.

As if on cue with the absolutely perfect weather we’re having, the 10th annual installment of the very popular San Carlos Hot Harvest Nights kicks off tonight down on Laurel Street in San Carlos. Tonight, and every Thursday night until September 12th, the northern stretch of Laurel Street is closed to vehicular traffic and transformed into an outdoor market of fresh produce, specialty foods, and live music.

This event seems to grow in popularity, since it seems noticeably more crowded every year. But it’s a fun event, and a great way to bump into old and new San Carlos friends! For more information on the event, or if you’re interested in hosting a booth, check out the page on San Carlos Chamber of Commerce website.

See you there!

San Carlos AYSO 2013 Registration is this Week.

Chuck Gillooley — Mon, 29 Apr 2013 22:04:49 PDT

A Great Organization.

It’s that time of year again! The San Carlos American Youth Soccer Organization (AYSO) is holding registration this week for the fall 2013 season. Sign-ups will be this coming Wednesday May 1 from 7:00-9:00, and then again Saturday May 4 from 10:00AM – 2:00 PM. Both registration sessions will be at the San Carlos Youth Center. For more information and to pre-register electronically, you can visit the San Carlos AYSO website.

Of all the youth sports organizations that are around these days, San Carlos AYSO stands in a class by itself, probably only sharing the spotlight San Carlos Little League. I have been involved with San Carlos AYSO for many years – first as a player when I was only 10 years old, then as a coach, a board member, and now a referee. It’s one of the most well run and positive youth sports organizations on the Peninsula, which explains why so many kids are part of it every year.

So be sure to get the kids signed up this week! I’ll be at the referee table on the Wednesday night registration session — come by and say hello! Otherwise, I’ll see you on the pitch in the fall!
