Condos

Only three condos sold in May, and they moved more slowly, averaging 107 days on market. While the average price was under $800K, condition and location significantly influenced results.

  • Median Sale Price: $690,000

  • Average Days on Market (DOM): 107

  • Highest Sale: 55 Norwich St$1,100,000

What This Means for Buyers and Sellers

  • Sellers

    If you’re selling a single-family home in Bernal, the market is clearly in your favor—especially if your property is move-in ready, has outdoor space, or views. Most homes are attracting strong early interest and closing above asking. Now is a great time to consider listing while buyer competition remains elevated.

    For condo owners, sales are still happening, but timing and pricing strategy matter. Staging, marketing, and highlighting the value of the unit (location, light, updates) are critical to standing out.

  • Buyers

    Buyers looking for single-family homes should be prepared to move quickly and come in strong, especially on homes under $2M. Partnering with an experienced local agent and being fully pre-approved are musts.

    For those open to condos, there may be more room to negotiate. With longer days on market and fewer competing offers, this segment presents an opportunity for first-time buyers or anyone seeking a more affordable entry point into Bernal Heights.
