The California coastal city where realtors predict home prices will surge

San Diego stands out on the California coast as the city where home values are truly on the rise—prices have climbed over 5% in the last year and an impressive 65% since 2020, now approaching a median of $1 million. As someone who focuses exclusively on San Diego real estate, I see firsthand how local demand and limited listings shape a uniquely competitive market. Most buyers are already part of the community, which keeps our neighborhoods vibrant and makes every transaction a reflection of what makes San Diego special.
