📊 San Carlos Market Outlook – Summer 2025
Across San Mateo County, single-family home prices have eased slightly from last year’s peak—now averaging just over $2M. However, San Carlos continues to buck the trend, with well-located homes still commanding strong competition and short time on market.
Buyers remain drawn to:
-
Expansive lots and development potential
-
Proximity to top-rated schools
-
Charming downtown and Caltrain access
-
A tight-knit, family-oriented community feel
This blend of livability and upside makes San Carlos one of the most resilient submarkets on the Peninsula.
