According to Compass, the spring 2025 real estate market is showing mixed signals across the Bay Area. In Marin County, homes in top condition, well-priced, and outside high fire-risk zones are seeing the most demand. While inventory is up, absorption rates have slowed, and price reductions are more common. Single-family homes continue to outperform condos, with strong showing activity and busy open houses. Economic volatility may be causing short-term hesitation, but it’s also creating opportunities for savvy buyers. With interest rates near 7% and markets stabilizing, now may be a smart time to make a move or invest.

Statistics are generalities, essentially summaries of widely disparate data generated by dozens, hundreds or thousands of unique, individual sales occurring within different time periods. They are best seen not as precise measurements, but as broad, comparative indicators, with reasonable margins of error. Anomalous fluctuations in statistics are not uncommon, especially in smaller, expensive market segments. Last period data should be considered estimates that may change with late-reported data. Different analytics programs sometimes define statistics – such as “active listings,” “days on market,” and “months supply of inventory” – differently: what is most meaningful are not specific calculations but the trends they illustrate. Most listing and sales data derives from the local or regional multi-listing service (MLS) of the area specified in the analysis, but not all listings or sales are reported to MLS and these won’t be reflected in the data. “Homes” signifies real-property, single-household housing units: houses, condos, co-ops, townhouses, duets and TICs (but not mobile homes), as applicable to each market. City/town names refer specifically to the named cities and towns, or their MLS areas, unless otherwise delineated. Multi­county metro areas will be specified as such. Data from sources deemed reliable, but may contain errors and subject to revision. All numbers to be considered approximate.
