Report: San Diego homes for sale rank #4 for fastest sales pace in the U.S.

Homes for sale in San Diego are among the fastest selling in the nation.

The sales activity is so intense that San Diego is among the hottest sellers’ markets in the country — and is showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon.

Real estate experts point to the area’s growth of high paying tech jobs as part of the reason why San Diego real estate is in such a selling frenzy. A large portion of the sales activity is occurring in the low-to-mid price ranges, capping out at $675,000. Despite that, San Diego’s housing inventory remains high. The supply of real estate in San Diego is around two to three months, which is about half of what analysts consider a healthy real estate market.

That may change soon, though, with more homes on the market due to homeowners having more equity and less restrictive credit requirements, which could allow more people to buy homes than in the past. San Francisco, San Jose and Oakland, respectively, rounded out the top three fastest-selling areas in the country. Nationally, 60 percent of homes listed for sale in February remained on the market in April.
