A MESSAGE FROM OUR MANAGER: Jeffrey G. Gibson In the first quarter of 2015, Marin County’s sales prices continued their year-overyear steady increase, according to the Bay Area Real Estate Information Services (BAREIS). The steep trajectory observed in Marin County in the last year has moderated to a two percent increase between Q1 in 2014 and Q1 2015. This has resulted in single-family home prices remaining elevated at an average closed sales price of $1.4 million. The National Association of Realtors projects this two percent price increase to be observed nationwide between now and Q2 2015 as well. Mirroring the San Francisco Market, Marin County had a decrease in inventory, which, when coupled with the current high demand, boosted the average sales price. While the number of closed transactions spiked to almost twenty percent higher than the previous year in some towns such as in Kentfield and Ross, other areas saw a minimal increase in homes sold or even experienced a decline. Sausalito had a 40 percent reduction in closed transactions between Q1 2014 and Q1 2015, while San Rafael conversely saw a five percent increase. The following charts depict market details of Marin County, Mill Valley, Ross, Kentfield, Sausalito, Tiburon, Belvedere and San Rafael.

MARIN COUNTY MARKET SUMMARY (SFH) In Marin County, the number of closed transactions dropped 11 percent from the previous year, with 416 transactions in Q1 2014 to 372 transactions in Q1 2015. The total sales volume remained relatively stable, due to the increase in home sales prices. Overall, the closed volume did experience a decrease of 9 percent, with homes in the $3 million and higher range making the largest percentage adjustment. Transactions in the $1 million to $3 million range held the largest share of the county’s sales volume at 52 percent, with a volume share of $272,265,980.

The intense growth of the market in Ross and Kentfield contradicted the leveling found in many other markets.
