Data through August 2026
See how prices, monthly costs, and mortgage rates have moved in Morgan Hill.
Includes principal, interest, estimated CA property tax (~1.25%), and estimated insurance (~$2,200/yr). HOA fees not included.
The median sale price in Morgan Hill is $1.33M — up 10% from $1.21M in October 2021. Over that stretch, the median peaked at $1.42M in May 2024 and bottomed at $1.10M in January 2025. That puts today's price about 5% above the area's 5-year average of $1.27M. Each point is the median of a rolling 3-month window of closings, so the curve runs smoother than any single month; the multi-year direction is the signal.
What buyers actually pay has moved more than the sticker price suggests: a typical monthly payment (20% down, principal & interest) is about $6,859 today, up 65% from $4,155 in October 2021. Most of that increase comes from mortgage rates (3.1% then vs. 6.7% now), not prices — at October 2021 rates, today's median would run about $4,581/mo.
Seasonally, the three months ending in September have been the busiest stretch for closings in Morgan Hill over the past 5 years (about 130 sales in that window on average, vs. 86 for the stretch ending in February), while competition has run hottest in the stretch ending in May (59% of homes selling over asking on average). That's an average across just 5 observations per month, so treat it as a tendency, not a rule.
Morgan Hill currently leans toward buyers. Homes are sitting longer and sellers are more open to negotiation. It is a good time to take your time, request contingencies, and consider offering below asking.
At $1.33M, Morgan Hill's median sits about 25% below the Bay Area average of $1.78M. That average is skewed high by ultra-premium peninsula enclaves like Atherton and Woodside, so a more useful frame is that Morgan Hill is one of the more accessible corners of the Bay Area.
