1 min read

Single family homes in Emeryville are a very desired commodity. In October, Emeryville saw two sales of single family homes which is rarity. 5855 Vallejo Street listed for $749,000 and sold for $950,000 within 13 days, receiving five offers. 1027 47thSt (shown above in the featured image) was listed for $995,000 and sold for $1,305,000 within 12 days, receiving seven offers.

Not all of the listings sold fast. A studio at 6400 Christie Avenue sold after 156 days on market and still went 7% over asking price.

Even though many listings sell over asking, it stands out that four listings in October sold below asking price.

Currently the Emeryville real estate market shows 20 active listings– 15 of which have been on the market for 20 days or longer. Seven  of these listings have been on the market for over than 50 days. The lowest priced listing is a studio on Admiral drive for $325,000 and the highest active listing is a duplex on 62ndSt for $1,191,000.
