Re 5

The median sale price of a home sold in the second half of 2023 in Contra Costa County fell by $8,000, while total sales decreased by 3.6%, according to BlockShopper.com.

From July through December of 2023, 4,122 homes were sold in the county, with a median sale price of $767,000. This is a 1% decrease from the $775,000 median sale price during the same period in 2022, when there were 4,277 homes sold.

The U.S. housing market has soared in recent years, with its total value nearing $50 trillion in 2024. This is almost five times greater than the market's value in 2000.

“The value of America’s housing market will likely cross the $50 trillion threshold in the next 12 months as there are not enough homes being listed to push prices down,” said Redfin Economics Research Lead Chen Zhao.
