How Is Contra Costa & Santa Clara County Real Estate Looking?

Santa Clara Real Estate

For those of us who benefit from knowing what the real estate markets are doing throughout California, I find this type of information useful.  It’s smart to be up to date with real estate trends, stats and market changes so you can inform potential homebuyers who want to purchase, and better advise borrowers who are looking to refinance.

Following is what the housing markets looked like mid-month, for the Northern Counties of Santa Clara and Contra:

Contra Costa
Median Sales Price: $825,000
Average days on market: 88
Inventory: 762 properties
Price increase: down 2%
Price decrease: down 36%

Santa Clara
Median Sales Price: $1,563,500
Average Days on market: 98
Inventory: 586
Price increase: up 2%
Price decrease: up 31%

The statistics for these two counties exemplify the uniqueness of the housing market by specific areas. Like no two states are alike, not even two counties are alike. It is difficult to generalize the state of the market at any time, but especially in today’s market.  So again, it’s smart to be up to date on these facts & stats, so you can benefit as a Real Estate Agent and licensed Lender or Mortgage Broker.  Let’s help our clients better!

If you or a client are running into tighter lending restrictions and are in need of flexible financing for a purchase or refinance – for anywhere in California – give Sun Pacific Mortgage a call at 707-523-2099 to discuss our Private Money loan programs or visit our website at www.sunpacificmortgage.com.  Our Private Money loans specifically tailored to those who need FAST financing or don’t currently qualify for conventional mortgages.

California Real Estate Analytics In A Nutshell

Wine Country Real Estate Trends for January 2022

While interest rates are higher than a year ago, they have steadily been declining since November.  With home prices cooling and market competition easing, some Buyers who missed out on the frenzied market of the last two years are taking advantage and finding sellers more willing to negotiate than in the past.

Looking at the statistics for home prices from top to bottom in California, we can see that is certainly not all gloom and doom:

  • Far North: highest year-over-year drop of 3.7%, with the median price being $366,000
  • San Francisco Bay Area: the highest year-over-year decline of 5.8%, with median price being $1,225,000
  • Central Coast: year-over-year gain of 0.1%, with median price being $900,000
  • Central Valley: year-over-year drop of 1.3%, with median price being $445,000
  • Southern California: year-over-year gain of 0%, with median price being $750,000

According to Zillow, the typical home in Orange County is still above $1,000,000 and overall, prices in Southern California haven’t fallen as much as the median indicates.

San Bernadino County has experienced a 0.5% loss since the peak, while San Diego Couty has experienced a 2.6% drop. It is good to note however, that home prices in every County are higher than they were a year ago.

There are very few analysts who anticipate price declines on a par with those seen during the Great Recession, if any at all. The market remains favorable to house sellers as they remain in control.

If you missed out on the last 2 year’s wild real estate market, this could be your year to win. Need faster or more forgiving real estate loan?  How about calling Sun Pacific Mortgage at 707-523-2099 or get more information about our Private Money purchase and refinance programs on our website: www.SunPacificMortgage.com .

Granny Flats in California are Gaining in Popularity

California Granny Flat

In order to put a dent in California’s housing shortage, state and local lawmakers have eliminated a substantial amount of red tape to allow homeowners to build second residences on a property.

We are seeing reduced building impact fees, reduced parking and setback requirements and the waiver for owner-occupancy on site. All these changes have been made to encourage ADU construction throughout the state to combat the state’s ever growing housing shortage.

Because we have had home construction lagging population growth, California’s Statewide Housing Plan calls for an acceleration of new home construction over the next eight years with a target of 2.5 million homes. This target is broken down as follows:

  • 643,352 very-low-income homes
  • 384,910 low-income homes
  • 420,814 moderate-income homes
  • 1,051,177 above-moderate-income homes

Some roadblocks that have been experienced include restrictions on drilling a new well (Sonoma County) and making your new build all electric (Marin County).  There are still issues with material shortages that make for slow-going in the building process.

Most builders of an ADU would definitely do it again in spite of all the difficulties they experienced in the build.  Roadblocks encountered differ from county to county. For instance, Sonoma County allows you to go right to the county website and choose preapproved plans. Their permitting process is more streamlined because they want more rentals.  In Napa County supervisors launched a $5 million forgivable loan program for residents who build ADUs and rent them below market value. There are other programs in the North Bay Counties that exist to encourage the ADU build out.

If you are considering an ADU for your property and have sufficient equity in your home, you might want to investigate a refinance with extra cash out or even a 2nd mortgage with Sun Pacific Mortgage.  We are a private lender with 35+ years of experience in California real estate lending. We offer fast, flexible and expert alternative financing. Give us a call at 707-523-2099 or visit our website at www.sunpacificmortgage.com.
