Arroyo Seco / Des Montes / El Salto Neighborhood Market Snapshot

Buyer demand

Buyer activity is present, but the recent four-week view is thin. Only 1 sale closed in the last four weeks, while 7 sales closed over the full 12-week window. That means the longer view supports real demand, but the latest month does not show broad momentum by itself. This is not a zone where one short window should be overread.

Pricing and seller positioning

All active and sold inventory in this lens is single-family. The 12-week median sale price was $825,000, with a median sold DOM of 50 days. The list-to-sale ratio was 97.7%, which is relatively close-to-list performance. That suggests well-positioned homes can still command serious buyer attention, but the active inventory profile shows buyers are still selective.

Median active DOM is 74 days, the 75th percentile is 187 days, and 8 of 17 active listings — 47% — have been on the market at least 90 days. That is the main caution in the data. The zone has a better months-of-supply reading than several other areas, but nearly half of active inventory is still longer-exposed supply.

Sub-areas

The sub-area split is important. Arroyo Seco has the cleanest read in the group, with 8 active listings, 4 sales over 12 weeks, and 6.0 months of supply. Median active DOM is 54 days, and only 13% of active listings are stale. That is the freshest and most balanced signal in this packet.

Des Montes also calculates at 6.0 months of supply, with 4 active listings and 2 sales over 12 weeks. But the active inventory is much older: median DOM is 187.5 days, and 75% of listings are stale. Because the sample is small, the supply number should be treated as directional rather than definitive.

El Salto is slower, with 5 active listings, 1 sale over 12 weeks, and 15.0 months of supply. Median active DOM is 176 days, and 80% of active listings are stale. That points to a smaller but more aged inventory pool where buyer interest is highly property-specific.

Bottom line

Arroyo Seco / Des Montes / El Salto is one of the better-performing neighborhood groups by months of supply, but it is not uniformly strong. Arroyo Seco has the cleanest activity and inventory-age profile. Des Montes and El Salto are more sample-sensitive and carry older active inventory. Sellers have a path when properties are well-positioned, but buyers are still selective and stale listings remain part of the landscape.
