What This Means
Gilroy's housing market is firing on all cylinders this April, with sales volume nearly doubling from March and prices continuing their steady climb. The jump from 28 to 52 sales is significant and speaks to spring seasonality kicking in—buyers are back out after winter, and sellers are listing their homes. What's particularly striking is that homes are selling at 99.7% of list price, which indicates strong buyer demand relative to inventory. The median price of $1.085 million is up nearly 2% monthly and 2.8% year-over-year, suggesting the market still has upward momentum despite broader economic headwinds.
The real story here is efficiency. Days on market dropped by over 20% to just 59 days, meaning homes are moving faster than they were a month ago. Inventory sits at 154 active listings, which is healthy but not oversupplied—roughly three months of supply at current sales pace. The gap between median asking price and median sale price is minimal, showing a balanced negotiating position for sellers without the desperation you'd see in a true seller's market. For buyers in the South Valley, it's a competitive spring, but the market feels sustainable rather than frothy.
