Coastal Real Estate and Lifestyles

These two neighborhoods are in the south-east portion of Pacifica.  Some of the streets in these neighborhoods offer beautiful views, either ocean, canyon, or bridge (the new one at the Devil’s Slide Tunnel).  Park Pacifica neighborhood, also known as “the back of the valley” is one of the warmer areas of Pacifica and the San Mateo County coast.

This shows MLS (San Mateo County) statistics for the months from February 2008 to February 2009, inventory at that time, closed sales during that month, average continuous days on market, and the average sale price, or the sale price of the property if there was only one closing.

Sun Valley/Linda Mar/Pacifica CA market activity:  Except for 2 sales in February, there have been no closed sales since September 2008.  Average sale price in February 2009 was $580,000 with 4 months of inventory.

Park Pacifica/Linda Mar/Pacifica, CA market activity:  The last closed sale was in December 2008.  There is no “average” since there has only been one or no sales per month since July 2008.  Eleven months of inventory.

As of this writing there are 3 “pending show”, and 2 “pending” in these neighborhoods according to the MLS under areas #652 for Sun Valley and #653 for Park Pacifica.  One of the “pending” properties is a short sale that as of a couple days ago was not yet approved by the bank as a short sale but is expected to be approved within a few days.  This shows that the market is moving again.

 In the area you will find:

 Sanchez Adobe Park - on the National Register of Historic Sites

 Frontierland Park - a great place for a family or playgroup outing.

 Sanchez Art Center - a non-profit organization devoted to creating community through art.
