Local Home Sales: Latest Real Estate Prices Near Albany, El Cerrito, Kensington

Hover over the interactive map or see the list below for information about homes sold since Sept. 7. Click the green "Keep me posted!" button below for an alert when we post the weekly round-up.

Again this week we're seeing the effects of our typical August slow-down. Homes that closed during this last week likely went into contract 30 days earlier, in early August. We can typically expect the market to get busier again from September to mid-November, so you should see that increase in activity reflected here over the next few weeks.

Since no homes closed in Albany in the last week, and only two each in El Cerrito and Kensington, I have included six from Berkeley. 

The sale prices for the homes listed below range from $250,000 for a two bedroom, one bath house in El Cerrito to $1.123 million for a three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath house in the Berkeley hills.

Of these 10 homes, four sold within 19 days, and five sold for at least 92 percent of their original list price. The average list price was $589,990, and the average sold price was $572,500.
