Top Real Estate Agent Providing Exceptional Service to Luxury Home Buyers and Sellers in Marin County, California

Wondering what the most expensive homes sold in Marin County in 2018 were? As 2019 kicks off, I thought it would be worthwhile to take a moment to look back on the Marin County real estate market in 2018 to see the top 10 sales last year. The very top sale, a home on a site once owned by iconic concert promoter Bill Graham, was 800 Corte Madera Avenue in Corte Madera (featured below), which sold for $21,400,000 at the end of July.

Home Inventories Up While Pricing Beginning to Flatten and Decline: The 2018 real estate market in the Bay Area is going out with a whimper instead of the "bang" of prior years. The national and local real estate markets have definitely slowed down, as rising interest rates, a faltering stock market and limited deductibility of state / local taxes and mortgage interest have all taken their toll. In November 2018 we saw a whopping 45% more homes on the market than in November 2017 while new listings decreased by about 20%. This indicates to me that the surge of inventory we saw after Labor Day -- much higher than prior years -- did not completely sell and will likely remain on the market through spring.
