Monterey Peninsula real estate market stats
One place to open the area stats pages for Carmel-by-the-Sea, the Carmel area, Pebble Beach, Carmel Valley, Carmel Highlands, Pacific Grove and Monterey.
The short version: Each area page lets you pull up metrics such as median price, days on market, or price per square foot for any month back to January 2002, and toggle between nominal and inflation-adjusted figures.
Open the stats for the area you care about
The headline figure on each card is the median sale price shown on that area page on November 10, 2026. It is the average of monthly median sale prices over the trailing 12 months, for single-family homes. The periods are not identical across every area, so the cards are not a same-month comparison. Open the page for the charts, later updates, and the other metrics.

How to read the figures
On each area page you can pull up metrics such as median price, days on market, or price per square foot for any month back to January 2002, and toggle between nominal and inflation-adjusted figures.
Some sales may appear in both the Carmel and Carmel Valley figures because the MLS area filters overlap. If you are comparing those two pages, ask me to walk through how a given property was coded.
Carmel-by-the-Sea, the Carmel area and Pebble Beach were last updated through September 2026, with headline figures covering October 2025 through September 2026.

Talk through a move
A short call is often enough to tell whether an area and a budget line up.
Before you rely on this
- Headline figures were copied from the linked area pages on November 10, 2026. Those pages are updated as new monthly data is posted, so open the live page for the current numbers.
- These pages cover single-family home sales. Condos and land are excluded unless a specific page says otherwise.
- A median is a midpoint, not a promise of what any one house will sell for. Small markets can swing on a handful of sales.
- This page is general information, not a formal appraisal, and not legal, tax or lending advice.
