▲ Heating UpEvergreen, San Jose Market Update
Evergreen favors sellers, but smart buyers can still win. Here's the picture:
- 28 days on market gives buyers time to be selective and negotiate
- Selling 3% above asking. Budget above list price to compete
- Monthly payment: $6,772 (20% down), well below the Bay Area average
- Evergreen pricing is near the San Jose city-wide median ($1.36M vs. $1.33M)
More competitive than last year. Waiting will likely mean paying more.
