Complete guide to buying or selling a home in Arroyo Grande - Fall 2023

If you're looking to buy or sell real estate in the charming coastal town of Arroyo Grande, CA, this fall, you’re probably wondering - what are the latest trends and how will they impact me? 

As one of the most idyllic Central Coast communities located halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco, the Arroyo Grande housing market has seen substantial growth and competition in recent years.

In this complete guide, we’ll explore key stats for homes with 1, 2, 3 or 4+ bedrooms and what they mean for buyers and sellers entering the market this season.

Key Takeaways:

• Interest rates are still relatively low historically despite recent hikes - it's a good time to lock in rates
• Inventory is extremely limited across all property types, creating a competitive, seller-friendly landscape   
• Home values continue to climb, with median prices ranging from $359K to $1.43M
• Low supply and high prices will require creativity, diligence preparation from buyers

How Will Rising Interest Rates Impact Arroyo Grande Home Prices This Fall? 

While mortgage rates have ticked up over 1.5% in the last year, the current average 30-year fixed rate of 7.62% remains reasonable compared to past decades. This steady ascent from the unprecedented lows of 2021 has cooled demand and price growth nationally, but the West Coast market is still running hot.
