Market Action Index

The MAI at 53 shows the market continues to lean more toward sellers. Buyers have more opportunities to negotiate, especially on properties that remain on the market longer. Sellers still maintain leverage thanks to relatively low inventory levels compared to demand.

Inventory Trends

Inventory has decreased to 37 homes, which is down from March’s 40. Inventory had been falling for much of the winter months, but it seems that spring may see more inventory enter the market, which would help buyers who are currently in the market for a new home. With spring coming, we expect inventory to continue to increase.

Median List Price

The median list price is $1,049,999K, while the median price of new listings is lower at $1,167,000. This gap suggests that sellers bringing homes to market are pricing homes higher than existing listings for April. This can be an indication that they’re responding to strong buyer demand and market conditions.

Days on Market (DOM)

  • Average DOM: 92 days
  • Median DOM: 56 daysHomes are moving in just about two or three months. Both figures have increased by about 20 days compared to March, as it seems the San Pedro market missed a step in April. This split highlights the importance of proper pricing and presentation—desirable and well-priced homes continue to draw offers more quickly.

Price Reductions & Increases

32% of listings have reduced their asking price. 0% have increased in price. 14% have been relisted. The high share of price reductions confirms that overpricing remains a challenge. Buyers are willing to wait out overpriced homes, while competitively priced properties are generating stronger activity. These figures have stayed fairly consistent over the last few months, potentially signaling more consistency in the market.

The San Pedro real estate market remains a seller’s market, though it still leaves room for buyers to negotiate.

Sellers who adapt with smart pricing and strong presentation will continue to attract offers, while buyers will find the most opportunity in homes lingering past the 60-day mark.
