Lake Tahoe Real Estate Market Report Q2 2018

July 5, 2018 by dwestall Leave a Comment

Lake Tahoe Luxury Real Estate Sales Dominate the Market in Q2 2018

Demand for North Lake Tahoe, CA and Truckee real estate has exceeded supply in the first half of 2018 which has pushed pricing upwards, reduced marketing times, and has led to a 27% jump in total dollar volume over 2017! Every metric that I track is up over last year and with significant gains noted in the average home price, the number of luxury home sales and a huge reduction in entry-level inventory. Sales of luxury homes make up 32% of all home sales in 2018 which has pushed the average home price to a new record! In May, Oliver Luxury Real Estate sold a $40M lakefront on the fabled Sunnyside Lane in Tahoe City and a number of other high-end luxury homes have traded hands which shows that wealthy buyers have a strong appetite for ultra-luxury homes in the Tahoe and Truckee markets.

Tahoe Real Estate Buyers Struggle with Low Inventory Levels in Q2 2018

In the first half of 2018 buyers struggle to find high-quality inventory and when a good home comes on the market they sell quickly, for top dollar and the competition can be fierce. Sellers are enjoying shorter marketing times for their listings and the median home price is up 7% over 2017. Buyers searching for homes in the sub $600K price points are struggling to find inventory as this is the most constrained segment of the market and also the most competitive. It’s not uncommon for homes in these lower price points to have multiple offers and to sell above asking price.

Now is the Time to List Your Lake Tahoe Home

Over the next 2 months, we expect inventory levels to rise as is typical during the summer but I do not anticipate having enough quality inventory to satisfy buyer demand. This will inevitably cause pricing to increase and we should see the median home price rise throughout the next 6 months. If you are considering selling your Lake Tahoe or Truckee home now is a fantastic time to list your property as buyer demand is high and people are willing to pay a premium for good quality inventory.
