The last few months have been a reset for buyers and sellers in San Diego. Not a crash. Not a boom. A shift.
What I’m seeing on the ground: more choices than late 2025, but the homes that are priced right are still moving. And buyers and sellers are making decisions based on monthly payment and timing, not headlines.
What changed recently (plain language)
  • Inventory is moving around by price range and neighborhood — some areas feel tight, others feel “pickier.”
  • Well-priced homes still sell. Overpriced homes sit longer and usually reduce.
  • Condos and townhomes are more rate-sensitive. Single-family demand stays steadier.
  • People are tired of guessing. They want numbers: payment, timing, and a plan.
The most useful numbers right now (San Diego County)
These are the kinds of numbers that actually help you decide:
Category What it looks like
San Diego County median price Around $899,000 (January 2026)
Homes sold (San Diego County) About 1,410 closings in January 2026
Detached homes (single-family) Median around $1,070,000; typical market time around 46 days (January 2026)
Attached homes (condos/townhomes) Median around $632,000; typical market time around 52 days (January 2026)
Note: This varies a lot by zip code and condition. The point is the direction: buyers have more choices than late 2025, but the market is still moving.
If you’re a buyer: why acting now can pay off
Buyers who win in San Diego do three things: (1) they know their real monthly payment, (2) they know where inventory is improving, and (3) they move fast on the right home.
Waiting can feel safe, but it usually creates two problems: more competition later, and less time to negotiate.
My buyer offer (not easy to find online)
I’ll send you my weekly “San Diego Advantage List”: off-market and coming-soon homes, price drops that matter, and the handful of opportunities with unusual financing angles.
Text “BUYER” to 619-846-1244
If you’re a seller: what matters most right now
In this market, pricing and presentation matter more than ever. The homes that sit are usually overpriced, poorly positioned, or both. The homes that sell are the ones that launch correctly.
If you plan to sell in 2026, the best leverage is usually before the wave of spring listings hits.

My seller offer (high clarity, fast)
I’ll give you three numbers, in writing: your likely sale range today, your net sheet, and what a serious cash-style option could look like. No guesswork. No automated “Zestimate.”
Text “VALUE” to 619-846-1244
The biggest problem I solve: buying your next home before you sell
Most people don’t want to list first and hope they find the replacement home. If you need more control, I’ll map a buy-before-you-sell plan so you can move with less stress and better timing.
Call George Lorimer: 619-846-1244
Or text “PLAN” and I’ll send the steps.
If you want the short version: the market is moving, and the next 60–90 days are a positioning window. Buyers get leverage by being prepared. Sellers get leverage by launching correctly.
Text or call 619-846-1244 and tell me which one you are: “BUYER” or “VALUE”.
