We can expect anything but a slow year for 2022. Expect the impervious sellers market to continue with the sunshine laden regions in highest demand while home office environments continue to form innovative decisions for housing.

Economists at the Zillow Economic Research Team predict “strong price growth and sales volume to continue.” Following another record-breaking year, forecasts project “11% (US) home value growth in 2022… Home sales are predicted to total 6.35 million, with the highest number of any year since 2006.”

According to a housing and economic projection released by the California Association of Realtors (C.A.R.), supply limitations and rising home prices will cause California home sales to fall slightly in 2022, but transactions will still be at their second highest level in the last five years.

According to C.A.R.'s "2022 California Housing Market Forecast," existing single-family house sales would drop 5.2 percent next year, to 416,800 units, down from the expected 439,800 units in 2021. When compared to the pace of 411,900 homes sold in 2020, the 2021 total is 6.8% higher.

Following a projected 20.3 percent increase to $793,100 in 2021 from $659,400 in 2020, the median home price in California is expected to rise 5.2 percent to $834,400 in 2022. Prices will continue to rise due to a demand-supply mismatch, but increased interest rates and a partial adjustment of the sales mix will likely slow the rate of increase. Additionally, as the trend of remote working continues, a change in housing demand to more affordable places will keep prices in check and prevent the statewide median price from climbing too quickly in 2022.

According to LA Times Core Logic, in Los Angeles County, the median home price rose 10.5% from a year earlier to $790,000, while sales fell 0.9%. CoreLogic forecasts a 1.6 percent increase in L.A. County home values in September 2022 compared to September 2021, and a 6.5 percent increase in San Diego County.
