La Mesa homes sales increase

Due to lower prices and historically low interest rates, neighborhood communities of San Diego such as La Mesa, have been experiencing a jump in the number of pending home sales. A pending home sale is when a buyer and seller mutually agree on a sales price and the property has been entered into escrow. La Mesa Real Estate has seen positive growth of the last 3-6 months.

The La Mesa MLS currently has 198 active listings, with an average price of $527,367 and an average market time of 87 days. There are currently 37 homes in escrow and under contract. The 37 homes currently in escrow should greatly increase the year end sales numbers for La Mesa Homes. For the month of October, as of 10/28, 1 home has closed escrow. A 2 bedroom, 1 bath home which sold for $399,900, this property was on the market for 76 days.
