West Coast New Condo Prices Up Since Last Summer
Lack of significant new condo inventory is pushing pricing up in several West Coast markets. At the end of August, there were 1,587 new condos on the market across San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego and Seattle.
Los Angeles, Seattle and San Diego each have only two major condo developments selling new product, which will continue to provide an anemic condo supply in these markets and drive up pricing in the downtown cores.
