Townhomes and Condos market in San Leandro and Hayward 11/2025

Interpretation for sellers and buyers

  • For sellers of townhomes/condos: Given the smaller inventory of town-/condo type units and reasonably solid demand, you’re in a good position — but pricing must reflect the broader market softness. Highlight strong amenities, low HOA, transit access (San Leandro has good BART access) to stand out.

  • For buyers: There are opportunities here. Fewer listings mean less “stacked” competition in certain segments; if you’re flexible and prepared (pre-approved, ready to move), you can capture value, especially if building condition and HOA are strong.

  • For investors: Townhomes and condos in this price band (~$600K-$700K) might offer an interesting entry into the East Bay rental/ownership mix. Because overall home price growth is modest or flat, you’ll want to emphasize cash-flow, unit appeal, HOA health and proximity to transit/jobs.
