Early 2026 Signals for California’s Housing Rebound

March 24, 2026 · San Diego Real Estate

In this video, Brad & Karen Mattonen break down the three key indicators that suggest the market is bottoming out and preparing for a 2026 recovery. From shifting seller expectations to the impact of recent housing inventory updates, we provide the relentless advocacy you need to time your next move perfectly. Whether you are a first-time buyer or looking to leverage your equity, understanding these early signals is crucial for your success this year.

Are we finally seeing the turn? Early 2026 Signals for California’s Housing Rebound are beginning to emerge, suggesting that the “Great Reset” of 2025 is transitioning into a period of renewed activity. While inventory shortages still keep deep price crashes unlikely, we are seeing a stabilization in mortgage rates and a slight uptick in buyer applications across San Diego County.

📊 2026 Market Sentiment: What the Data Shows

The transition we are seeing in early 2026 is often referred to as a “sideways market.” While the Early 2026 Signals for California’s Housing Rebound are positive, they require a nuanced approach. Sellers are no longer seeing 20 offers in a weekend; instead, they are seeing 2-3 highly qualified buyers. For buyers, this means you finally have the leverage to ask for closing cost credits or necessary repairs—opportunities that were non-existent two years ago.

We are monitoring the “Absorption Rate” in San Diego County closely. As more homes hit the market, the speed at which they are snatched up tells us exactly how strong the rebound is. Currently, well-priced homes in coastal communities are still moving quickly, proving that demand for the San Diego lifestyle remains the primary driver of our local economy.
