These were the top ZIP codes for Sacramento-area home sales last month, report says

The Sacramento housing market experienced a nearly 3% decrease in sales of single-family homes last month, according to The Sacramento Association of Realtors.

A total of 1,310 homes were sold in June after being on the market for an average of 14 days, compared to 1,345 homes sold in May in an average of 13 days.

This is all while Sacramento’s single-family median sales price decreased from $575,000 to $560,000, a 2.6% drop since May. The active listing inventory increased more than 21% last month, from 1,840 to 2,237.

One year ago, 1,723 single-family homes were sold in Sacramento at a median sales price of $520,000

In short: Sacramento homes are staying on the market longer and selling for less — and fewer people are buying them, compared to the previous month.
