Real Estate Sales Data

This page gives you the actual numbers behind the Silicon Valley housing market, pulled straight from MLS data. Use the menus below to build the exact view you want. Start with a county, narrow to a city if that's your focus, or drill all the way down to a single ZIP code. The last menu sets how far back you're looking, anywhere from the past six months out to the past twenty years. Set the menus however you want, press the Refresh button at the end of the row, and the charts redraw against your selection.

There are three charts here, and each one answers a different question about the market.

The first pairs median sales price with the share of homes selling over asking. Price tells you where values actually landed. The over-asking percentage tells you how much competition was sitting behind those numbers, and that second line usually moves before price does when a market starts to turn.

The second pairs median days on market with that same over-asking share. This is the pace of things. When days on market stretches out while the over-asking share falls, buyers have won back some leverage, and sellers need to price with more care than they did a year earlier.

The third puts new listings against closed sales. This is supply meeting demand in its plainest form. Watching the gap between those two lines is the cleanest way to see whether inventory is piling up or getting absorbed as fast as it arrives.
