San Diego Real Estate Market

Tuesday, October 3rd, 2006

Just a couple of recent observations in regard to the state of the market. First, economists have recently sited search engine searches as a viable leading indicator for real estate sales. So, if the number of people typing in the term “san diego real estate” goes rises from 80,000 searches per month to 90,000 searches per month, you can expect sales to pick up accordingly in X number of months ahead (from my experience, the “search” to “sale” timeframe ranges from 90 days to 180 days). A far cry from measuring searches, I have noticed my San Diego Real Estate website traffic increase dramatically over the last couple of weeks. This despite my organic rankings worsening concurrent to traffic increasing. A bit unusual…

I have also noticed a spike in showings on both properties I list and properties I am showing to buyers I am working with. 

Good signs for real estate as we head toward the holiday season.
