What’s Still Wrong With CA Real Estate?

The California real estate market has been acting crazy for over a year now. See why prices are way up and inventory is way down. It’s now definitely a seller’s market.

Movoto analyzed some of the largest cities in the country to learn which have seen the largest decrease in inventory over the past 12 months. Cities on the West Coast lead the pack.
Based on the latest data from Movoto Real Estate, now is a decent time–but maybe not the ideal moment–to look at selling or purchasing a home in Portland. Local housing trends show The City of Roses is in a fairly healthy state, with total inventory down as price per square foot remains stable.
We are seeing a gradual increase in the prices of homes in areas that have been most affected by low inventory. This could be an indicator the housing market has finally pulled out of its slump. We’d like to think so. But we’ve been burned before. We’ll say we are cautiously optimistic.
