August split the Bay Area market again: SFRs in the $1.3M–$3.3M range are still moving fast and over asking, while condos $1.3M+ and luxury homes slowed with longer DOM and more negotiation room. Mortgage rates dipped to ~6.29%, the lowest since spring, giving buyers a small boost. See our proprietary heat maps for the hottest price tiers in your county.

July 2025 brought sharper divides in the Bay Area market—SFRs still spark bidding wars, while condos cool. Mortgage rates hit their lowest since April, tech layoffs eased, and data center growth surged. Which counties are hottest? Where do buyers now have the edge? See our county-by-county heat maps and trends before you make your next move.

June 2025 continued the trend from May: SFRs under $3M stayed strong with faster sales and 105–108% list-to-sale, while condos cooled further. Compared to May, condo DOM rose and inventory climbed. Year-to-date, SFRs lead in price gains; condos show flat-to-negative growth, especially in SF and Santa Clara. VC and AI growth offset job losses in tech.
