If you’ve been watching San Diego real estate this spring, April gave us a clear answer to the question everyone’s been asking: is this still a seller’s market? Short answer — yes, but not everywhere, and not in the same way it was a year ago.
This month’s recap breaks down what actually happened across San Diego County in April 2026, with a closer look at three neighborhoods I work in most — Pacific Beach, Clairemont, and North Park. Average sales prices, days on market, list-to-close ratios, and where inventory is tightening (or loosening) — it’s all below, straight from SDMLS data as of May 1st.
Whether you’re a buyer trying to time your offer or a seller wondering what your home is actually worth right now, this is the real, unfiltered snapshot — not the headline version.

Numbers tell you what happened. They don’t tell you what to do next — that’s where a conversation with an agent who actually works these neighborhoods every day makes the difference.
If you’re thinking about buying or selling in San Diego County this year, let’s talk through what April’s data means for your specific street, your specific timeline, and your specific goals.
