Detached means stand-alone houses; attached includes the source’s condo and townhome category. Days on market until sale follows SDAR’s metric and is not labeled a median. Inventory is the source’s homes-for-sale figure. Months of inventory relates available supply to the source’s sales pace. Original list price received is not the same as final list price received.
Prices do not account for concessions or down-payment assistance. A dash means the source did not report a value, often because no sales closed. Reports may be revised by the source. This page shows the latest verified published period, not live MLS inventory or a forecast.

Carmel Valley’s September report shows a clear split. Detached inventory fell and closings increased, while attached inventory rose and sales slowed. The marketing period among closed attached sales was longer than a year earlier.
Sellers should choose comparisons within the same property type and competitive set. Buyers comparing a house with a condo should weigh association costs and maintenance alongside price. The two segments’ medians describe different groups of homes; they are not a forecast for a particular property.
