Balanced Market
▼ Cooling DownLakewood, Sunnyvale Market Update
Lakewood is a balanced market — a good environment for thoughtful decisions on both sides:
- Homes sit for about 18 days — enough time to tour, but don't wait too long
- Selling at or just above list price — fair offers still win here
- Monthly payment: $8,031 at 6.37% (20% down on a $1.61M median home)
- Bidding wars persist (54% sell above list) but inventory is growing — competition may ease soon
- Lakewood pricing is near the Sunnyvale city-wide median ($1.61M vs. $1.87M)
Competition is easing. Conditions may improve in coming months.
