One part of the Primary market is moving especially fast
Most of the country is moving slowly right now. Realtor.com reported the typical U.S. listing spent 61 days on market for the week ending September 19, 2026. That number tells one story. ZIP 95819 tells a very different one.
The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted a median of 8 days on market in ZIP 95819 for the three months ending July 31, 2026. That is 10 days shorter than the same period a year before. Buyers here do not have time to think slowly.
Nearly three in four homes went under contract within two weeks
The Real Estate Data Aggregator found that 73.9% of homes in ZIP 95819 went under contract within two weeks of listing. That share rose 23.9 points from the same period in 2025. No other ZIP in this market came close.
How 95819 compares with the rest of the Primary market
ZIP 95819 is the fastest ZIP in the Primary market by a clear margin. The next closest, ZIP 95818, had a median of 12 days. Most ZIPs sat between 26 and 34 days.
Sellers in 95819 are getting above list price, often
The Real Estate Data Aggregator found that 51.7% of homes in ZIP 95819 sold above list price. The average sale came in at 101.8% of list. With only 19 homes for sale and just 1 month of supply, buyers who are not prepared are likely to miss out.
What this means if you are buying or selling here
Buyers: being pre-approved is not enough in a market like this. You need a clear offer strategy before you walk in the door. Homes are gone in days, not weeks.
Sellers: sharp pricing and strong presentation matter from day one. The Real Estate Data Aggregator shows pending sales in ZIP 95819 rose 30% from the same period a year before. Demand is real, but buyers are informed. Overpricing still costs you.
The broader Primary market context
Across all ten ZIPs, the Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 875 homes sold in the three months ending July 31, 2026, up 9.6% from a year before. Homes for sale fell 23.3% across the Primary market. New listings dropped 14.3%.
Nationally, the National Association of Realtors reported 4.9 months of supply, the highest in over ten years. That is the opposite of what the Real Estate Data Aggregator shows in ZIP 95819, with just 1 month of supply. This market is not the national market.
Freddie Mac put the 30-year fixed rate at 7.03% as of September 24, 2026. That is real pressure on buyers. In ZIP 95819, they are absorbing it and still competing hard.
How the fastest ZIPs stack up on two key measures
| 95819 | 95818 | 95776 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Median days on market | 8 days | 12 days | 16 days |
| Under contract within 2 weeks | 73.9% | 50% | 45.2% |
| Sold above list price | 51.7% | 46.3% | 39.4% |
| Sale-to-list ratio | 101.8% | 101.7% | 99.5% |
| Months of supply | 1 month | 2.2 months | 2.1 months |
- ZIP 95819 had a median of 8 days on market and 73.9% of homes under contract within two weeks, for the three months ending July 31, 2026. That is far faster than any other ZIP in this market, and far faster than the national figure of 61 days reported by Realtor.com.
- One street can read very differently from the ZIP as a whole, so your specific block matters.
