What Happened In February
February saw more closings, faster movement, and continued buyer activity across 94403. A total of 19 homes sold, up from 16 last February, and homes sold in about 21 days on average, improving from roughly 25 days a year ago. While the median sold price was lower year over year, the pace of the market remained healthy.
What Did Not Change
Well priced homes are still getting attention. Buyers continue to compete for the homes they want most, which shows up in the numbers. The average sale to list ratio rose from 105.3% last year to 109.2% this year, a strong sign that demand is still present when the property and pricing line up.
Year Over Year Lens
The clearest year over year shift is not weakness. It is movement. More homes sold, they sold faster, and buyers paid stronger premiums over asking than they did last February. Even with a lower median sold price, the broader takeaway is that 94403 remains a competitive market, especially for homes that are prepared and positioned correctly.
TWO PATHS, ONE SIMPLE PLAN
IF YOU ARE SELLING IN 2026
Buyers are paying attention and they are selective. Homes that are clean, well presented, and priced with intention are still the ones that create urgency, even in slower periods.
IF YOU ARE BUYING IN 2026
Early year can be a strong window. When pace is slower, you can sometimes find better terms, especially on homes that have been sitting longer, before the spring competition ramps up.

FAQs
Why can the market feel competitive even when sales slow down?
Sales can slow for seasonal reasons, fewer closings scheduled that month, or buyers taking longer to decide. But if inventory is still limited or the best homes are scarce, the homes that are priced right and show well can still attract multiple offers. Slow sales volume does not always mean weak demand.
