As one of the most desirable towns in Santa Clara County, the prices of detached and attached homes in Los Gatos rose in April as the annual Spring real estate market hit full throttle.
The median price for single-family, re-sale homes stayed over $1 million for the third month in a row. The median price has been over $1 million for eleven of the past fourteen months. The median price for April was $1,160,000, which is a new record for home prices in Los Gatos.
With its family-friendly atmosphere, fantastic schools, proximity to mountain trails, great parks, and small town feel, we know why Los Gatos is a highly desirable community.
As more would-be homeowners feel priced out of the single family home market, they are turning to condos/townhouses which reached over $700.000, a new price high for that segment of the market.
