subject: Residential Real Estate In San Clemente Ca [print this page] Residential Real Estate in San Clemente, California has seen a lot of changes in the last 5 years. Our real estate market like other parts of the county when from seeing home prices soar in 2006 and 2007 and then to come down in the years to follow. As the San Clemente Real Estate market has moved through the downturn we have realized that prime beach property will always hold it's value no matter what the market is currently doing.

We are still seeing a lot of homes buyers being confident in making offers on short sale and foreclosure properties as these provide opportunities to first time buyers, real estate investors, and owner occupant residential real estate buyers. Our impression of the market is that we will continue to have a brisk real estate market with active homes sales in combination of fewer foreclosures and more short sales to hit the market.
