August 2026
Clairemont Market Report
Shirin's Take
Detached and attached homes are moving at different speeds.
Detached homes ended August with 1.1 months of supply, compared with 4.1 months for attached homes. The detached median was $1,220,000, while the attached median was $490,000. Those figures describe different pools of properties and should not be combined when evaluating a specific home.

Detached Homes
Clairemont · ZIP Code 92117
Detached homes recorded 39 closed sales in August. The median sales price was $1,220,000, up 6.8% from August 2025. Active inventory was down 45.8%, leaving 32 homes for sale and 1.1 months of supply at the end of the month.
Pending sales were down 26.3% year over year. Homes that closed spent an average of 21 days on the market, and sellers received 99.9% of their original asking price on average. Monthly price changes should be read alongside the number and mix of sales, especially in ZIP codes with limited activity.
For Buyers
Inventory is limited at 1.1 months of supply. Have financing ready, but base the offer on recent comparable sales and the condition of the property rather than the ZIP-code median alone.
For Sellers
Sellers received 99.9% of their original asking price on average, and closed homes spent 21 days on the market. Pricing and presentation still determine whether a property moves with the stronger part of the market.
August 2026
Attached Homes
Townhomes, rowhouses + condos · ZIP Code 92117
Attached homes recorded 3 closed sales in August. The median sales price was $490,000, down 13.3% from August 2025. Active inventory was down 6.5%, leaving 29 homes for sale and 4.1 months of supply at the end of the month.
Pending sales were up 20.0% year over year. Homes that closed spent an average of 53 days on the market, and sellers received 97.9% of their original asking price on average. Monthly price changes should be read alongside the number and mix of sales, especially in ZIP codes with limited activity.
For Buyers
With 4.1 months of supply and an average market time of 53 days, buyers may have room to compare options. Review recent comparable sales, condition and time on market before deciding how aggressively to offer.
For Sellers
Sellers received 97.9% of their original asking price on average, and closed homes spent 53 days on the market. Pricing and presentation still determine whether a property moves with the stronger part of the market.
Looking Ahead
What matters next
One month does not establish a trend, particularly in a ZIP code with a limited number of sales. I will be watching pending activity, inventory and market time to see whether August's pattern continues into fall.
