2022 Quarter 1 – Downtown San Diego Housing Market
Downtown San Diego continues to be extremely tight on inventory. There are currently 63 listings active in Downtown San Diego, but 14 of those are in the Hard Rock Hotel. This brings the available active listings down to just 49 options! With an average of 82.33 homes selling per month, this puts us well below a one month supply of inventory. If we compare it to one year ago, inventory is down 65%!
The average sales price was $923,764, which is an increase of 18.1% compared to the previous quarter. In addition, the average days on market was down 36% compared to last quarter. Homes in Downtown San Diego are selling faster and for more money. We are also starting off Quarter 2 with 41.27% more properties in escrow when compared to the start of Q1. That is a sign that the Quarter is off to a good start.

$200,000-$399,999
Every listing currently on the market in this price range is at the Hard Rock Hotel, but only 1 out of 15 sales under $400k happened in the Hard Rock. That means that 14/15 of the sales, or 93.3%, of the condos sold were outside of the Hard Rock. If you’re looking for a traditional condo under $400k, there are literally zero options for you to chose from.

The number of sales in this price range has decreased by 36%, but that is largely due to not having options for buyers. There are currently 21.33 homes selling per month in this price range, 32 under contract, but only 9 options on the market!

The number of sales in this price range also doubled. I think this is the most sales I’ve seen above $2.5m in one quarter. In Q1 of 2021, there was only 1 sale above $2.5m and only 5 from Q2 of 2020 – Q1 of 2021. What is more amazing is that there are 7 homes currently in escrow in this price range.
