Brentwood: 3-Year Market Projection

 

2026

  • Active Listings: Likely to stay elevated (~540–560), as many homeowners test the market while buyers remain selective.
  • Closed Sales: Projected ~165–175, below long-term averages, reflecting cautious buyer sentiment.
  • Median Prices: Stabilization phase. Expect list prices around $4.9M–$5.0M, with solds slightly lower at $4.6M–$4.7M.
  • $/Sq.Ft.: Near $1,400–$1,450, holding close to 2025 levels.
  • Key Factor: Persistently high interest rates keep financed buyers cautious, but luxury cash buyers prevent major price declines.
 
2027
  • Active Listings: Moderates to ~500–520 as discretionary sellers step back.
  • Closed Sales: Rebound to ~180–190, signaling renewed absorption.
  • Median Prices: Modest appreciation resumes: list ~$5.1M, sold ~$4.8M–$4.9M.
  • $/Sq.Ft.: Climbs toward $1,475–$1,525.
  • Key Factor: Global equity market stability and foreign wealth flows revive Brentwood’s luxury demand, particularly for move-in-ready estates.
 
2028
  • Active Listings: Balances near ~470–490, with healthier turnover.
  • Closed Sales: Pushes toward ~200, closer to pre-pandemic norms.
  • Median Prices: Growth regains momentum: list $5.3M–$5.5M, sold $5.0M–$5.2M.
  • $/Sq.Ft.: Likely to reach $1,550–$1,600.
  • Key Factor: With interest rates stabilizing or easing, coupled with ongoing international demand and limited supply of premier luxury homes, Brentwood reasserts its long-term value trajectory.
 
Summary Projection
  • Short-term (2026): Stabilization, sales subdued, pricing flat-to-soft.
  • Mid-term (2027): Market recovery begins as confidence and global demand strengthen.
  • Long-term (2028): Healthy appreciation resumes, with fundamentals driving sustainable growth rather than speculative froth.
